well technically its not NOS because NOS is a company and its a ZEX kit ;)

with a wet kit you would probably be good to a 75 shot with a really good tune.

Yea with a b16 and it being a wet shot. 65-75 shot easily as long as you retard the timing around 2-4 degrees and get at LEAST 1 or 2 step colder plugs and you should be fine.

as with any power increase, especially boost or nitrous, get some kind of fuel mgt, and get a good tune.

since youve never had n2o before i highly recomend starting from the 55 shot pills before going any higher. even a 55 shot can melt pistons and burn valves. ive seen b16's take a 150 shot all weekend long with no problems but again this was due to the driver knowing how to tune n2o properly. always run premium, 1/2 step colder plugs, also gap them down some, pull timing depending on what shot you are going to run(you could always pull regardless to stay on the safe side), know what detonation sounds/feels like, never spray from a dead stop(low rpms and nitrous=kaboom usually blowing off the air filter or intake tube and or bending the throttle plate), do not spray all day long(i personally dont like to spray constantly for longer than 15 seconds) google how to tune nitrous, something will pop up.

I am fathfull on the best. I allways run Symthetic Oil, Premieum 94 Oct Fuel and I was only planing on a 35 to 50 shot maximum and I am Going to get a air/fuel mixture guage before I even touch the n2o. What I do need to know is what do I do to change the timing without the ecm compensaiting. I have been told to jump some pins on the diag plug but I am new to tuning hondas only done domestic so I dont want to guess on witch plug and witch pins to jump. can someone give me some details on dooing this. pics would be great if possible.

Make sure you get a WIDEBAND a/f gauge. The auto meter gauge is "Jus fo dekoration mann"
