Have fun w/ the nitrous but not too much fun... check your spark plugs

Drive it like you stole it!

You can't use a basic ZEX kit, you'll need a wet kit since the K series don't have return fuel lines to increase the fuel pressure.

Let me be more specific for the "nit pickers". The K series has a "returnless fuel system" so you won't be able to use the standard vacuum pressure to increase the amount of fuel delivered when you're spraying. Hence the need for a wet kit.

We put a NEW Zex wet kit on the Si we put the 2.4 CRV engine in. Do yourself a favor and get an AEM fuel rail.

hey my friend has a RSX typ s with a cai, dc sports header, and catback exhaust. he got zex wet set up, and ran a 9.1 in the 1/8 mile on street tires (65 shot). he has a shitty launch so if you have a good launch then you can probably hit high 8's. hope this helps. but personally nitrous ***** up your valves (in my gs-r head in cylenders 1 and 3 valves were burnt as ****) so its up to you if you want to use it. peece
