If you have a wet shot and adequate fuel pump (the stock one shouldn't have a problem with those power levels) why would you need larger injectors?

IMO "safe" is relative term. If you expect to use the nitrous often and in high gears, don't expect the piston rings to last all that long. 100hp added to any 4 cylinder through nitrous is just asking for trouble with stock pistons, but with proper tuning you can push the stock assembly pretty far. Some have blown their motors with a 75 shot, others claim to run 125 shots without incident for extended periods of time.

If it were me I'd get nitrous specific pistons first.

A 100 shot on a b18b is as safe as an obeiss man on a tightrope.. might want to go to church before you hit the button.

Get some tuning first, Hondata or AEM, and get that biotch tuned, cause you may get away with it once or twice, but I wouldn't be surprised if it went boom on you and you blow a rod through your block.

I know a lot of guys running around with a 75 wet shot on b18a's with high milage with no problem. I also know of one guy running a 100 shot on his b18b with just minor headwork, cams, msd 6al & his motor is pushing 120k.

if your gonna go with a 100 shot, i recommend you getting an upgraded fuel pump and a upgraded ignition. i ran my b16 witha 75 shot for 2 years without any problems, of course i had a msd ignition and an aftermarket clutch.

what is the danger to his IM? do you know what your talkin about? i have herd that with a dry shot that the nitrious does not distribue evenly and can lean out one cyl. but never have I herd of danger to the IM.
If you going to run that large of a shot your going to need to get some kind of fuel management, I would suggest if your on a budget get an SMC or a SAFC and some 450cc injectors along with a fuel pump. An ignition is not a must, some colder plugs will help ward off pre-ig. along with 91+ octane. I know of people who have run and continue to run 150 shots on there stock blocks. Its ALL about how well you tune and how much $$$ you have, good luck,

Blaze thanks for the comments.

I think I am just going to upgrade my fuel pump & add an inline fuel pump with some rc injectors. Msd 6al, frequent spark plug changes. And only running my juice at the track.
