i have just purchased a turbo kit for a 96 integra gsr and i also have a 80 shot of nos on it but it has not been used i just want to know how many psi's do i use so i can also use my 80 shot of nos i . i wanted to use about 8.5 psi's . is that to much for my stock engine or will it hold up good
thanx

you might want to think about building up the motor a little bit more if you are going both turbo and NOS.

yhou should be educated enough to make your own decision....it's not rocket science....

use the nos first. If you notice any problems stop using it. (problems would consist of excessive knock or a loud noise, detonation). If the nos seems to work without any problems go ahead and pop the turbo in there with an adjustable boost regulator. Start low, really low, then slowly work up till you notice excessive knock, then dial down about 25% and you should be ok.
As far as using nos with a turbo, be carefull. Nos does the same thing a turbo does (forced induction) so by hitting the nos button you are in essence adding more boost instntly. Whithout an angine rebuild you should take it easy, if you spring for the rebuild go all out :)
Just don't run it lean. Make sure you are getting enough fuel into the engine. An air/fuel gauge will help this out.
Good luck

Yeah, if you run the chance of getting detonation running NOS and a turbo, you might just want to buy an extra engine. You'll need it when you melt a piston or throw a rod. Enjoy.

Hello this is my first post here so here it goes..:D
IMO I suggest you pick one or the other and not both. You don't need nitrous if you have turbo. If you want to go faster then turn up the boost. If you like to spray then by all means spray but I wouldn't do both, especially on a stock motor and an 80 shot dry. If you just have to do it anyway I suggest at least spraying wet to help compensate for the lean condition as well as a fuel delivery system upgrade.

IMO, I agree with Streetracernx. Do either one, or none at all. But if you must do both, I would suggest to get the Monitary switch system (is it spelled right??). That way, you could spray when you're in lag, once you get out and start to boost let off the NOS. If you use both NOS and be boostin at the sametime, you would def. need to build up you motor. If it were me, I would turn up the boost to get more lag and use NOS to compensate for the lag. Just my opinion...........:bloated:

let's put it like this:
I'm trying to get rid of Haltech system, and if you buy it from me, you won't have any problems if finely tuned
