Default help with nitrous (zex)

im going to be buying a zex nitrous kit, i looked in the faq, and it said i must have a vaccum ported fuel pressure regulator, does a 99 honda civic have one, and my tps must read around 1 volt at close and 4.2 volts or higher at WOT, does my ciivc meet these requirements?

thanks!

I would advise not to use the 75-shot jets. It'll work fine on the street if you don't floor it for more than a quarter mile, but you'll probably blow your motor at the track. That's what happened to my hatch, a 2000 model and similar to yours.

You would be better off getting an exhaust gas temperature gauge. I would also pick an air-fuel ratio gauge above fuel pressure gauge. Although I'm not too familiar with them, I think a lot of people use wideband O2 sensors, but those are costly.
