You could easily do a 75 shot. Probably even higher.

Spray is really hard on cylinder walls and rings. I didn't see any upgrades like that in list.

spray is just as bad as turbo/supercharger/anything that makes higher compression.

run a 75 shot, a stock engine can take that.

i agree.
please, elaborate.

nitrous oxide makes more horsepower by making a stronger combustion, just like adding more fuel and air into a cylinder.

are you using it for the track only or you gonna always use it? i plan to go on 120 shot just for the track also only to. i know some who ran 120 shot on lsvtec for 2 years at the track only no problems yet. i don't like the idea of sqeezing but its an easy cheap way to hit 12's haha

You should look in the Forced Induction forum. You will get a lot more help then in here. Most of the people will just flame you in here because they really have no clue.

Your car will be fine on a 50 shot. I was running a 75 shot on a dry kit on my civic, I wanted to upgrade to a wet kit so I could run a 100 shot, but my car got stolen before I could do that.

i never understood if people say they have all these mods and installed them..themselves and are clueless as to how to fill the gas tank
google nitrous and read up on it first then make a decision.

so you dont come back HONDA-TECH told me i was good for a 1000 shot and i blew my motor

i say at least a 75 shot and your good.....but then again what do i know....i claim i know how to drive a civic!

Ek first off claim your gay..how about that one shitt pusher.. i had an h22a on spray.. but that is a 2.2l. I built the ls/vtec for my hatchy but im not sure about the higher compression or what the block can take. that is why i'm asking, maybe someone w/o a smart *** comment knows.
