Default 100 NOS wet shot on d15z7

Hey everyone, I'm wanting to put a wet 100 shot on my 94 hatch but I'm wanting some advice from anyone that maybe more experienced with nitrous. I threw a 100 dry shot on my motor 2 weeks ago on a dyno and it did 197 h.p. and 234 lb. torque at the wheels. I was wondering if you all think it would be a good investment and if i'd be able to have fun with it or just worry about leaning out all the time. thanks for all replies.

that wont last long. as long as its wet, a 75 shot "should" be ok. but just save up and get a turbo or SC. the cost of filling nitrous bottles will kill you in the long run. and when you wanna go really fast, really bad, the bottle always seems to be empty.

somehow i get the feeling its not, but i know a 50 shot is fine dry on that motor, with pretty frequent use, so a 75 should be ok for occasional use as long as its wet, and BTW, get some spark plugs one heat range cooler than stock. and dont get the iridium ones or the platinum ones with the little tiny tip (about the same size as the iridium ones) as the small tip melts in the insane temperature it is subjected to in an N2O motor. and set the ignition timing just barely retarded, like 14-15* BTDC.

yeah, 100 shot is a bit much on a stock motor, and check into zex spark plugs.

yes, the motor is all stock and has not been built. I can try to load the dyno sheet if u all want to see it. we were going to make 2 passes but the bottle only had 2 pounds of nitrous in it and we used a pound and a half on the first run and the bottle ran out during the second run right after i punched it so i only got to make one pass but my 1.5 took it well and it liked it alot so i've already ordered a wet shot but i was just wanting some other peoples opinions.

there's no way your stock motor will last with a 100 shot.

wow, thats why it worked though. if it only had 2 pounds in it, then the pressure had to be pretty low. dont stick with the 100 shot. thats pretty unanimous.

Well actually we heated up the bottle to 925 psi so it was at full pressure. i was under the impression that if u have GOOD fuel management and everything is tuned my engine will handle a 100 shot fine if i only spray it at the track on the weekends. i've talked to a couple local nitrous experts and they both told me that my engine is unlike any other d series honda makes and it loves nitrous very much because of the shorter stroke then a d16 and yet it still has higher compression.

I also plan on getting a MSD ignition box and window box so i wont have to worry about hitting my rev limiter while i'm spraying. i plan on cutting it off at 6500. ive already ordered nology wires and brisk spark plugs that are about 4 levels colder then stock plugs.
