well just about any motor could use nitrous at diffrent levels.
You need to go to google and do some more research before buying anything. Also this really doesn't belong here.

But I won't report it because nothing will happen...

You can run nitrous on any car, Just depends on how much you use

You can run a 25 shot of nitrous on a stock motor and it should be fine

But if you have a midifed motor, thats able to handle more nitrous than you can run a higher shot

or any internal combustion motor, um...lawn mower


do alot more research before blewing your motor up, it's a cheap way to gain some power, but at the same time, a fast way to have a bunch of broken parts if you don't know what you are doing

there is a tuner shop here in modesto who experimented with nos in a single motor he started off at a 25 shot and worked his way up to 300 shot to see how much juice it can handle and the motor still didnt blow just goes to show if you do a proper setup your motor can hang

ps not saying to do it just saying a stock motor can take a lil nos

-use 2 step colder plugs (Zex makes some or NGK bkr7e)
-always use premium fuel (91+) to avoid detonation
-generally a 75 shot will be fine on a stock motor if everything is set up properly

Read up on things like rpm-activated window switches and bottle heaters. Also check out manufacturers websites (Zex's site goes over the basics).

PS- Accords love nitrous

Forgot to add that. Zex reommends pulling no timing for a 55 shot, 2 degrees for a 65 shot, and 4 degrees for a 75.
