it will hold if thats what you are saying, but nitrous isn't alll that good for any motor, it can burn your rings up, u can have a nitrous backfire, explosion.
but you will be safe with 50 shot, go for it.

i go to the track everyweek for the last year spraying a 50 shot on my stock gsr
i go through at least 4 bottles a month, havent hade 1 prob yet.

the few things u need to do is upgrade your fuel pump get a aem or holly fuel pressure reg, get the ngk 6 plug, its for faster driving ( it took .4 off my 1/4 mile)
& if u want traction buy a quaif. & oh have fun

i run 13.6 all night with this setup. it suprises alot of people

no need for those w/a 50 shot...it's all about CONSTANT FUEL PRESSURE..no timing what so ever needs to be taken out a 50 shot.when you take away
timing you are killing "just waisting the **** i like to say" JUST ADD THE EXTRA FUEL AND YOU WILL SEE WHAT I MEAN ALSO READ YOUR PLUGS AND ADJUST ACCODINGLY.

owners manuel "sits back and laughts" don't always believe what you read in that
manuel or any other.the goal w/nitrous is to make more power correct.all i am trying to do here is show him some KEY PLAYERS in his little quest.

hey believe what u want but i am running the same set up as u & i know what worked & what didnt work. ngk7 is 2steps to cool. ngk6 is 1step thats what u need.
a reg ngk5 is normal & u will burn the plug up. fuel pump, fuel reg, 2degree timing
retarded is all u need. i told u my times so where can u go wrong & its totaly reliable not 1 prob yet. u decide.

thats why you run a 50......


i have ran 400 on a stock sleeve b20 w/a welded in block guard and that
car is still running today...just read thru the threads.you are spraying more like a 30 shot when taking the timing out like you did,but hey if you like being slow and conservative w/nitrous thats ok to.


but when we put nitrous on something we want to make POWER...[quote] you DEDCIDE.

No owners manual as in the HONDA manual that comes with the car possibly this is different in my car i have the prelude h23 it says use the 6s but 7s are recommended for the highspeed driving

To answer your question a 50 shot is good, I would listen to 1700dropping no timming retard is nessasary for a 50 shot. I am assuming it is a dry shot and if it is a zex kit you dont need anything but a colder plug


imo you r wasting your time with a 50 shot but a 50 is still fun

good luck

You'll be fine. I ran a 75shot on my Accord for a couple of years on a 150K engine with no problems.

Not trying to jack his thread but, with a zex kit you only need colder plugs? I want to run the 65 shot. What is needed to do that? Im new to nitrous and want it to run good and as safe as possilbe

colder plugs stop the plug from burning up & also will lower your 1/4 mil by about 0.2. ( it took 0.4 off my 1/4 mile consistant)i went from ngk5 to ngk BKR6E-11 stock # 2756 ( these are the ngk v-power & i havent burnt one yet) as for the reg ngk5 & iridium plugs i can only go to the track twice & then at least one plug melts up.

aslo all nitrous dealers recommend retarding timing 2degres for every 50shot. this ruduces the risk of detination witch causes enigine failure. thats why so manny peepz have hurt motor they dont do that. u want a <U> safest reliable </U> motor u retard timing. plain & simple

You do not need colder plug for a 50-75 shot and you do not need to retard the timing.

50 shot will be fine you can spray that going to the corner store.
