gnar kill

Well I have planned to go turbo for sometime but it looks like its gonna be a long time until I have the funds to do it right because I want a nice reliable setup and want to save up and do it right so I was thinking about goin with a nitrous setup for the time bieng here is my current setup

91 crx si obd 1 p28 zif socketed with data loggin
completely rebuilt (by me) d16z6 with a y8 intake mani and b18 tb
zex 59300 cam and zex valve springs
arp head studs
stage 1 clutch and lightened flywheel
aem fuel rail
falken azenis on some crappy 14s for when I go to track

I know alot about turbo but am kinda lost with nitrous and I was a good kit the things I think that I want are a wet kit, WOT switch, some sort of rpm cut off and around a 55-75 shot because I am mainly interested in lowering my 1/4 mile times. What would be a good kit to do this? where can it be found? and is there anything else I need? thanx guys

i recomend zex becaue when you hit rev limit you hit fuel cut and zex uses fuel pressure to guage how much nitrous so when you hit fuel cut it cuts the nitrous to

well the rev limit on my current chip is like 8000k and I only rev to 7500 at the max is there any kits you can use to have an rpm deactivation switch in them?

The zex kit uses the tps sensor to engage. Full throttle is on, when armed.

is there anything else I should do to my motor to run a 75 shot i.e. retard the timing or colder plugs? or can I just hook up the kit and go?

what kind of 1/4th times can you see on a stock d16z6 with a 75 shot?

but to the op i would still recomend a zex kit as it is far easiest to install and get going.

aside from a 1-2 second delay in activation that I have with mine, I agree.

i had a NOS set up on my sohc and it worked fine. ran a 50 shot wet setup and had it on a trigger button.

00 d16y8
clutchmasters stg 1 clutch
2.25" exhaust
short ram intake
50 shot wet kit

made 170 hp 170 tq to the wheels

sloweredcivic

actually that is how it works cause when you miss a shift and hit rev limiter other wise way ore people would have blown there engines. all i meant is that its a fail safe but you really don't need a window switch with a zex kit just lift your foot to shut it off,


what i did and sprayed over 5 bottles
colder plugs
bigger fuel pump
fpr
fuel gauge i think we set mine at 45 psi
retard timing
and don't spray under 4500 rpm
and enjoy all the torque

HatchSi

so im guess a 75 wet shot on a stock d16 will be around 195hp??

i only made 178 at the wheel with my b16 and a 75 dry but i made 60 more ft lbs.

get the zex wet kit. the dry kit acts as a rising rate regulator to up the fuel. the wet kits are nice, plumb it in the same as a dry kit, the cut in a fuel tee and you're done. a good rule of thumb is to retard it 1 degree for every 25 hot, so for a 75, retard it 3 degrees, run atleast premium and spray away. do NOT hit rev limiter, it does bad things. either blown head gaskets or shattered sohc rods. i've done both due to wheel spin.
