Default nitroused sh

i just put the bottle (nitrous express kit) on my 97 sh. this thing is mean for what it is,but my question is:
1- what is a safe hp setting for stock fuel system and internals
2-what kind of work is involved with sleeving the block is it something i can do in my shop or does the block need machining.
I am going with a fmax turbo kit and i'm wanting to use the nitrous only as a intercooler cooler then, however for now i bought the kit at a deal so here i am.
Also I haven't been around preludes or...all hondas that much. I grew up racing the IHRA and NHRA pro mod and top sportsmen classes.We have used up to 1000 shot of NO2, so to see this much increase with only a 50 shot is just amazing.
thanks for all your help .

A reputable machine shop will have to install the sleeves. It's not something you can do yourself, unless you're a machinist.

safe amounts on your sh (assuming youve done a compression test and tuned up the fuel/ignition system) would be about a 75 shot from that NX kit. At that size I recomend a 2 degree retard of timing, but it isnt necesssarry. Personally Id spend the 100 dollars on the big fuel pump, but it isnt necessarry. Just follow the rules of sprayin, and you should be just fine....

We just put an NX kit on a stock H22 hatch (one of our sponsored cars) and it went from 13.8 @ 97 to 13.0 @ 105.x, nitrous is controlled by the hondata. We were also being really safe with the timing, pulling like 4-5 degrees on the bottle. Car should go mid 12's with a good 60ft and less timing retard

Well he didnt say anything bout having management it's OBD 2, so there no way for him to retard the timing. I would stay at 50 shot possibly 60 max on stock timing. What kinda kit is on the car?

As he said its NX, regardless of wethere he said anything about engine management, he still should strongly consider retarding the timing on the 75.....if your gonna do it, do it right, or you just break stuff
