Default nitrous setup: what else would i need?

ok guys after deciding that turbo proabally isnt the best way to go for my daily driver i decided to take a look at nitrous for some fun at the track or that occasional highway run. im currently running a stock gsr with i/h/e/ with some 170k (high miles i know) compression is fine all the way across and it runs great. im looking at getting just a 50 shot dry kit. the people i have talked to say all i need is the kit and some ngk or denso plugs and i should be good to go. others i talk to say i need bigger injectors,fuel pump ect. before i buy anything i really wanna know what else i will need. if its going to be alot ill probally just get a nice set of cams or few other bolt ons since its my daily driver and i need it to be realiable. any imput would be great. thanks guys

Good Premium gas, Colder plugs doesnt matter what brand just run a step colder then stock, I would suggest with a dry kit get a B&M or AEM FPR and fuel pressure gauge and bump your fuel up a tad. There is no need for bigger injectors or a upgraded fuel pump. There is plenty of fuel that still can be had out of stock 240s and your stock fuel pump. You can also retard your timming a degree this will help prevent detonation, you dont need to but it will help prevent it.

colder plugs, fpr and fp gauge and retard your timing a degree or two... also, youre going to have to look into a clutch soon too

It would just be cheaper to go with a wet kit rather than the FPR and rail. I have a stock GSR swap in my civic and have been running a 75shot for the last 2 years, no problems.

Ive got a Zex dry kit COMPLETE with bottle heater, purge kit and pressure gauge for cheap, Ill pm you

With a zex dry nitrous kit you dont need an FPR, its ups the fuel pressure by itself

Colder plugs will be all you need
