Get the injectors flow tested.

Also, since it's a "wet" kit, make dang sure the squirter on #2 is working (assuming they have separate additional injectors.)

Honda intake manifolds are meant to flow air and gases, not liquid (your fuel). If your injectors are good you may need to up your fuel pressure or run a larger fuel jet in the nitrous system to compensate. Sure some cylinders may be rich but at least you won't blow the motor.

A friend ran a 100hp shot on a D16A for about a year (2 bottles a week, refills were free for him at the shop he worked at) and he was always checking the plugs and change plug gap, fuel jets, and fuel pressure to compensate on the lean cylinders. He always had 2 cyls that were leaner than the others. He closed the plug gap on those cyls too. He had all plugs at different gaps based on their initial color reading for the day and every day was different. All his friends in NC made fun of him for being that **** but the motor never blew. Hope this helps some.

A lot of people dont I know dont like to use the single shot system because of that same reason. You get pooling and uneven distribution. Direct port baby
