I was thinking about getting the zex dry nitro kit for my 1990 CRX Si. I just was wondering what i need to check to make sure my car will be able to handle it. Its got about 160,000 miles on it. but still runs like a top. What are some things i could check to make sure my engine wont go kaput on me. THanks for your info.

compression/leak down test, tune up and remember to include the fuel filter

Is there a minimum that my compression needs to be? Because couldn't it have gone down a little bit since the car was assembled?

as long as the compression on all the cylinders are about the same. run low amount of shots first. don't get too excited and shoot like 80 shots. i'd start out with 30 shots and go from there. those CRX engines aren't the best of almost anything, except MPG.
