stick around these forums, or read a few of the stickies in the nitrous forum over on clubrsx.

ep's can't use a dry kit stock. The rsx/ep's have a returnless fuel system, which won't work with dry kits.

A wet kit just has two selenoids and you tap the fuel line inside the engine bay, it's nowhere near as hard as people make it out to be. :D

NOS is a brand not a product.

thats like saying "who has HKS on there car and using it?"

N20, nitrous, and spray are better terms for wha ur tryin to say.

if all else fails, you can just say SQUIRTIN' or SQUEEZIN'

-Mike :confusem:

PS- Some one should sticky that... man, i hate the fast and the furious...

Generally, if your car is stock you don't want to spray past half your crank HP

So 160/2 = 80 shot

But i've heard the fuel pumps can take up to a 100 shot... just don't forget to change the plugs.

actually, on the k-series, that works ok, but thats not the reccommended general rule. 30-35% is generally safe on any motor.

unless you ep guys have a different pump than us rsx'ers, 125 doesn't even dip the fuel pressure meter.

I think you can only turn a wet kit into a dry... not the other way around..

i have a mut wet kit right now (NX bottle, NOS solenoids) that i am planning to run a 50 shot on top of my 10PSI JRSC setup. not sure yet if i am going to do it. might just do an a2 swap and bolt the s/c on:mtongue:

so would a 50 shot of nos be equavilant to 50hp? would the same go for 100 shop = 100hp?

yes it would unless its turboed or sc i heard then it doubles it, i could be wrong about that though its just what i heard once.

well i know on the s/c because of the way we were going to set it up, you get more out of the shot because of NO2 cooling the air charge. cooler air is more dense and provides and stronger spark, not to mention that you can advance the timing a little more without worry of detonation. this is where you make the power increase. after some long discussion with my tuner, we basically were coming up with probably a 45-55 whp increase in my car with only a 35 wet shot. but we have not done the kit yet so that is just speculation.

with running nitrous on the K20A3 with just the minor bolt-ons do you still need k-pro with using a 50-75 shot??

06-12-2008, 06:02 PM
No you do not i would not recomend 75 65 at the max maybe only 75 once in a great while.

Great info right here guys. Really helping out. I am planning on running a 50-65 shot on my intake, header, cat back and reflash.

You DO NOT want to use Nitrous with a reflash, or you will be looking for a new motor. Check hondata site for info.

Hondata website:We do not recommend the use of nitrous or forced induction for this reflash. For these applications use the K-Pro.

I had nitrous on my car last year and it was fun but very expensive at $10 a lb, spending $100 on a bottle every weekend got to be to much. If you are going to do it properly with Kpro and everything else you may as well get a turbo and save money in the long run.

Around here it's $3.25-4.00 per lb...
Assuming a 10lb bottle, a 50 shot will last about 15+ passes. A 75 shot will last about 10+ passes. A 100 shot will last about 7+ passes.
