How rough is No2 on your motor?

[civickiller]

why not just go with the good ol fashion 50shot, its in between 35 and 75, and all of my friends run 50 and there motors are still runnin. i think how much shot you run depends on how much you race. i mean if you race alot, then i say run lower, but if you race very little, then maybe you could go alittle higher

Yes, it should.

What compression ratio are you talking about? If not too high of a compression ratio than you should be able to run a bigger shot than that if your fuel system is upgraded

Don't forget the clutch also, N20 is hard on the clutch! Factory clutches won't last long with nitrous!

Superstreet: " a general rule of thumb, you should use a nitrous level that is a little less than half your stock power"

IN this case, your engine, 220hp (correct me if I'm wrong) would be fine with 80 shot. My best advice to you is to get a/f ratio gauges, this toll will let you know when your engine is running bad, so you can let off the nitrous, thus saving your motor. I would'nt reccomend Bosch spark plugs, my bro melted his after the 2nd day of use and he ws only using 30 shot on a b18c1. Agian, my best advice, get teh gauges, this will be all the help in the world to you. Also, check the pressure of the bottle, just cuz you use a 50 shot jet, does'nt mean you're getting 50 shot, you could be getting les if the pressure of your bottle is not at the right temp, I'm not sure about the right temp, maybe someone here will mention it...

Read the january 2001 issue of superstreet, they have alot of usefull information about using nitrous. I hope your engine does'nt blow up, good luck to you.

Happy hunting

what about fogger kits?? they're alot safer running 80shots than 80 shots direct right?? any pros and cons about fogger kits??

The only thing that is bad about a direct port kit is that you cannot go under a 80hp shot. With the fogger you can go from 25hp to in your case 80hp. The direct port kit has better distribution of the nitrous and fuel. If you are not planning on building the internals fir nitrous then I would say you would be better off sticking with the fogger kit.

And bottle pressure should never get below 800psi with a wet kit or you risk a nitrous backfire! I like spraing at 900 - 1000 psi. A bottle heater is a must when you have a wet nitrous kit. And whatever you do , don't leave the bottle in your car on a hot day. My friend left his in his car and came out from work to find the safety valve on the botle had released all the nitrous into his car !

I bet he had a good laugh about it

Out here in redneck zone I've only know one person that used nitrous. He has an 86 Olds Cutlass and when he still had the 305 Chevy in it he was squirting 150 shots into it for a few months before he finally got his 383 stroker ready to swap in. The 305 had a flat cam lobe cause the people that owned it before rarely changed the oil, so I'm really surprised that motor never blew. I'm guessing bigger motors can take bigger shots though right? I know I wouldn't wanna spray anything too big in my daily driver.

[98_4dr_civic]

general rule is never go over your stock hp unless the engine is built. h22 has 200 so I say 80 shot would be fine. by the picture I see you have pretty much a stock intake with a cone filter. I would get rid of it cause it might shatter with a 80 shot. If your nitrous goes into your intake you have a dry shot. DONT use dry with turbo, they dont go together. for turbo applications you have to get a wet shot.
the reason you need a piggy back is cause its not the N2O that makes the HP, its the extra fuel the nitrous helps burn that gives you those 80 extra ponies. so if theres no computer hooked up to your nitrous to tell the car to inject more fuel your going to be mad lean and fuck up your engine. I say the safest kit out there is the ZEX cause the computer manages your fuel through your stock injector and stock pressure regulator, it also shuts off if you go lean and you dont even have to press a button. it activates it self when you put the pedal to the metal.
have fun with your squeeze but be safe. peace with

I have a friend that has a 632 in his 68 camaro, he runs a 250 shot of nos, but he races it at the stip regularly. I'm thinking about getting a Type S, but probably won't waste the money on NOS unless I can afford to do everything right (internals). I hope to have a turbo as my first major upgrade.

How bout instead of buying a type S (which my bro beats ALOT of times > near stock GSR) ,you can bu the new srt-4. If you put $1,000 into that car, in the fro of boost controller, tires, and nitrous, you can probably hit mid 12's. Whcih I THINK is faster than any RSX around, the fastet rsx I've seen is 12.9, it's built by greddy.
