The Zex kit is Auto right
so if I am in mid of race and I dont have it on and I see the guy is about to past me can I flip the switch and it sprays or do I have to have it on at before I start to race for it to work

To answer the question, yes you can do that.

Sorry, you run 17's in your pathetic stock civic. An inbred mexican driving a stock eclipse GST or talon TSI, not even an AWD one would still be able to beat your car, but you might stand a chance against a naturally aspirated RX7. Save your money for a swap instead of wasting it on nitrous for 50 horsepower.

lol first off if you look RX_speed has the 2 cars i was talkin about. I was just fucking with him bc thats my boy that lives next door to me.
anyway I found good deal on a zex kit
so I am going to play around with it till I blow my engine then I may swap it
But then why does everybody want to swap out D engine give it so Buffed up rods and Cam. and turbo it or n20 it out and you will be just as good as a swap.

exactly, the zex kit works off of the computer. It reads full throttle and that's when it sprays. Otherwise you won't have nitrous. So you could actually leave the switch on and untill you are at full throttle you will not be spraying.

Somewhat true. there are some very fast d series cars out there. But you said it perfect-turbo it or n20 it out and you will be just as good as a swap, you'll be just as fast as the swap, but then add a turbo or nitrous to that swap and good bye d series.

a DX will stand a chance against a 1st gen n/a RX-7, but not a second gen in good condition

now when i had my D16y8 automatic in my car. I used the greddy turbo kit on it. Now you figure on average for every pound of boost you make roughly 10hp. I ran my car with the greddy exhaust on and ran high 17's low 18's. With the greddy kit, 5psi and the exhaust, i went 14.9. That's a major improvement. With the right shot, you can pull a decent time. And remember, my car was automatic.

Yes but the nitrous has a different affect on the motor and drivetrain that the turbo does. The nitrous will be a sudden shot of power and traction will be an issue and then the stock cklutch will also be an issue with a shot above 50hp.

I don't know to many people that spray right off the line, especially with a stock sohc. Now see, i added the thing with me being automatic because i could build boost by torque breaking and would have full boost in 1st gear. I never had a problem with that. I was just trying to show how an improvement of myabe 50whp can give a decent time change.

Well 50whp with a ZEX kit is going to have to be at least a 65-70hp shot. The ZEX kit does not give the power that is stated in the jetting to the wheels, however NOS and NX measeures their hp at the wheels, well the wet kit by NOS not the dry.
