Alright I have been hiding it for awhile but it's time to come clean about it, I have a drug problem.... I am addicted to nitrous oxide lol.
Since I am almost the only person on here that is going to run nitrous instead of a turbocharger I thought I would make a mini nitrous build thread on how to do it right then when I am installing everything I will write a diy on the install.
My setup isn't going to be anything special but I'm not just slapping on a kit and calling it good so here it is:
-ZEX Dry kit, running a 55 shot for awhile. I don't know if I will change it to a 65 or 75 later on yet. Fun fact: ZEX and NOS both measure their shots in crank hp and NX is the only one that I know of that measures their shots in whp.
-Simple purge kit, I'm not going to spend any extra money on the duel purges or ones with lights... just something to get the job done.
-Nitrous filter. Not extreamly nessisary but they are cheap so why not.
-2 Step colder plugs and replacing fuel filter just to be safe.
-I'm getting an external msd ignition coil and plug wires, some say honda's ignition systems are kind of weak at high revs so this should help a bit.
-MSD Three Stage Retard Control. For a 55 shot I do not need to retard timing but I am going to do 2* anyway, again to be safe. The cool thing about the three stage is so if I want to upgrade to a 2 or 3 stage nitrous system it can retard timing in stages as the nitrous stages change also.
-Fuel pressure safety switch. This is a sensor that you install inline on the fuel line and it measures fuel pressure, if it falls to low then you cannot activate nitrous saving your engine from going way to lean.
-MSD RPM activated window switch with 3k on and 7k off.
-Electronic nitrous, fuel pressure gauge and inovative wideband gauges on the a-pillar.
-ZEX maximizer kit. Adds another bottle to the system.
-Eventually bottle openers but not for awhile probably.
-Also holding off on a clutch, just hopeing this stock one will hold a 55 shot for awhile until I get time to install a stronger clutch.
I am ordering most of this stuff today and yesterday my dry nitrous kit got here which is the only thing I have pictures of at the moment. More pictures are comming in as soon as the parts do and when I install them.

I only knew one guy who had zex in a sick RSX, it was pretty sweet. You got to get a video of when you have it installed, nice set up!

well the first step to a 12 step program is admitting you have a problem.....so scratch off step 1.
im also runniing a Zex kit. 75 shot for me though. i have ARP head studs to hold it together.
