I guess I am leaving out one of the more important aspects of power adding - fuel. Is larger than a 75 shot even safely possible on 91 octane CA pee fuel?</TD></TR></TABLE>

I will be using 93 octane with the 100 shot, and probably 100 octane with the 125 shot, here in Florida we don't use "pee fuel"

dont forget their retail is very high. that kit i beleive is only around 600-650.00 normally.</TD></TR></TABLE>

Now that I thought about it, I couldn't believe that. So I did some searching and I can't find the kit for less than $1000 for the 4 cylinder, just like it is here.

ZEX kit is still more bang per buck, I got mine for $480 new. They're easy as hell to find used for half that price because so many people get rid of the kit, since they don't realize what it is capable of. They don't realize what it is capable of, because all the people on Honda-Tech think it can't go higher than 75hp because that's the jetting it comes with.

Ryan and I have had many discussions about dry kits and the like. I believe they are in the drag forum if you want to search. Do not shell out the money for a NOSzles kit. Honda manifolds(except for the H series ones) are easy to tap for direct port.

Yes, there is alot of interesting arguements/ideas in there. Check it out. I think one of the threads was called "100 shot nos heads."

I have been spraying 125 hp ZEX dry on top of 22psi of turbo boost in my D16Z6 race motor since last year with no problems. Once the nitrous mixes with the incoming air, the intake manifold will properly distribute the nitrous/air mixture. I use a FAST stand alone for activation and nitrous fuel mgmt. and the nitrous stays on the whole pass. I have never understood people that see nitrous as only for "spooling". If you have to carry the 30 lbs. of bottle, lines, solenoids, etc. it needs to earn its way all the way down the track. Nitrous is simply another convenient way to get more oxygen into the cylinder to burn more fuel........creating more HP.

Later,

my last car (Rx-7 T2) had zex installed in it when I bought it. I yanked the kit and sold it before ever using it, I don't trust the ****. Maybe I'm paranoid

i've used the NOS products before, not bad stuff. i used the plate system for awhile on a B18C1. the NX DP systems are nice as well, though i've never used them personally.
