B16A turbo vs. B16A nitrous
i have a few b16's here and was going to do stock b16a w/57trim at 12 psi
but now i have type-r pistons and am going tto rock all motor high compression for a bit. my question is would like a 125 shot direct port setup on like 12.5-1 comp be good witl some big cams if i just spray like once every few weeks? the nitrouse setup should be faster too i think since 1 psi of boost is about 10whp and 120 shoy wet direct is 120hp i should be good right?
this is ether way all going into a del sol

Re: B16A turbo vs. B16A nitrous (herecomesboost)
i could be mistaken... but i think anything over 100shot, you need to add a fuel pump and tune. i use to have a b16a with a 80shot and it worked great. when i tried to up the shot to 100, it would bog. this was also on a single fogger wet system, so im not sure how that would apply with a direct port setup since there is fuel and nitrous running into each runner. but for the most part, the car is gonna rip hard either way

spray the crap out of it i used to have a b16 the only thing i hated was feeling the bottle up every week and when i spun a rod bearing after about 7 months of two to three bottles a month or more if i went to the track

yeah 100 shots of nitrous are pretty reliable along as you take precautions and have common sense, which isnt so common on honda-tech these days, tuning is good insruance

Re: B16A turbo vs. B16A nitrous (aarontrini85)
i've had both set ups within 2 months in my gsr ek. gsr single fogger with 75 shot walbro and nitrous base map. and a set up with t3/t4 turbo 50 trim with hondata street tune. to me i liked the nitrous better. i sold my nitrous and bought the turbo kit and sold it within a week to buy a nitrous direct port. its always going to be a battle between nitrous and turbo here and the only real way to know is to try it yourself and see how you like it. turbo power is always there up top and you dont have to refill. nitrous power is there down low and you have to refill. its personal prefs.
good luck with whatever you choose. just tune it.
