Good luck with that. I'm not saying that the B16 can't take it, I'm just saying that if you don't do it right, it's not going to last. You're going to have to do a little more than bolt on the kit and throw in whatever the jetting charts says for a 100shot...

Personally I'd plumb a direct port dry kit with all the fixins, get some 550's and Neptune, plugs 2 heat ranges colder than stock and tune it on 104 octane just for insurance. The stock pistons don't hold up too well to detonation at all...

Spoon feeding doesn't led to much around here. There is a 200 page Nitrous thread floating around as well.

If you're that retarded that you can't search how to do something, then you certainly won't be able to do it when it comes down to actually doing it.

The b16 can take the 100shot with ease as long as the fueling and ignition it there t back it up. IE: bigger injectors and full timing control....but don't worry you probably won't dothat anyway

Nitrous is like having a hot chick with aids. You want to hit it but your afraid of the consequences

ONly the uninformed feel that way.

Nitrous is no worse for your motor then forced induction. When done right it works great. When not, it wont and will break ****

If it's laughing gas, why isn't it funny?
Just make sure you do it right, as others have said.

Run a 75hp wet kit, and see how you like it. Its actually very safe when used correctly. You wont need bigger injectors for this kit. Run premium gas, ngk bkre7's, and you should be safe with stock timing.........but what do I know

Stupid *** quotes like that make me ******* throw up. HP and stupidity break parts, not the means of creating it. I have sprayed so many vehicles over the last 12 years it's not even funny and the ONLY thing I ever hurt was one single exhaust valve and it was 100% my fault, nothing to do with the bottle.

Constantly regurgitating misinformed stupidity does nothing but further bash a good product. If you the end user are incompetent, then yes, it will tear **** up, just as fast as a turbo setup with a stock fuel pump and no tuning will. If you don't understand the product, then either learn it or don't use it. Don't go around bashing it though.

i went thru 5 bottles on a SOHC 65 dry shot. run a 2 step colder plug, and retard your timing. Rule of thumb is 2 degree per 50 shot

yep retard 2 degrees of timming for every 50 shot get colder plugs and gap them at about .034 you can run 100 wet all day just make sure its a wet kit (get Zex kit) and make sure your fuel filter is good. might want to get a 255 pump. if you want to run a bigger shot start looking into pistons and rods and some cams.
