Default Can my engine handle nos???

I have a 97 accord Ex vteh 4cyl (at)...Is it possible for me to add headers, cold air, super charger and nos to my accord just with my stock engine? Without changing anything else to the engine. Will it handle all of that??? And maybe later I will change my head...

Well, first off, there is no supercharger made for your car, so that is out of the question. Even if one was made, your internals would not hold up to both nitrous and another form of forced induction. However, your engine will handle the nitrous as it is now. You will be limited to approx a 75hp system.

i agree with big james.

what do you mean change your head? to what? if you're thinking about the h22 head, forget about it. it won't even line up right and it would cost an arm and a leg to fabricate it. its not worth it, just get the whole h22 block and head. its easier and you save money. you already got the best head for the f22, you have the vtec head.
