well tuning is the key what kind of engine management are you using? i would suggest having it tuned w/o nitrous in mind...sell the nitrous and get more useful parts nitrous is great and all but that's $600...thats a set of good pistons there...i look at this way...nitrous is an ongoing investment, yeah its quick easy power but it's only when you flip a switch and arm it, and only after you pay $50+ to fill up a 10 lb. bottle....i used to have a zex dry kit and i sold it to buy cams, you already have cams so you are one step ahead of where i was i just liked the thought of having a car that was fast all the time instead of when i flip a switch.

the proof is in the pudding really, if you want an example..
1992 Civic LX
b16a3 w/ grinding LS tranny (3rd gear grind)
act 8 lb flywheel
6-puck clutch
I/H/E
Crower stage 2 street/strip cams
Skunk 2 manifold
VAFC vtec at 5800 ROUGH TUNE
mid to low 14s in the 1/4 estimated

my friends 1993 mustang w/ the 5.0 V8
i don't really know what he has done cuz i couldnt care less haha
watched him run a 14.50 on street tires in the 1/4

way home from school 3rd gear roll (twice) My civic vs. his mustang....
winner:gave 1 length to my civic

all motor>nitrous
