yea i dont see why not, you would have to custom make the whole set up since i dont think many people out there buy a r18 with intent of squeezing ... i also doubt you will find anyone who has ever done it either, but hey if you got the money you can do anything to the car right?

Well money isnt an issue but to do so what needs to be custom built????

Plus I actually have doubt about the technology used in the head. So techys I need ur help.

I cant buy an SI coz this is the only engine we get from the dealers.

Nothing needs to be custom built. You just have to mount the nitrous nozzle in the intake tube, like you have to do on any dry import nitrous kit.

The only that will need to be built is your engine. After you blow it up, it will need to be re-built.

Yea you dont wanna be trying to double and triple your HP in a car like the R18. Either get a turbo or sell that **** and buy a old Miata and stick an LS1 in it.
