nitrous suggestion
 
I have been looking through the latest Honda Tuning mag. and the have got alot of articles on nitrous. I would like to put a basic kit on my car. 2002 EX sedan. 1.7 liter. What would be a good, reasonably affordable kit? Only mods at this time is K & N CAI and straight through 2 1/4" exhaust. Thanks for the info.

an nos kit is the most basic. if you have a few extra bucks, zex make a good kit.

DOnt forget you have to run a wet (N2O and fuel) not just a dry (N2O only) kit

A dry shot is fine in moderation.If you keep it down around a 50 shot dry a factory honda fuel system is strong enough to hold that.

I would suggest a 35 to 50 shot dry from NOS or a 60 to 70 shot wet kit from NX.Zex is an ok system but the NOS and NX jets are far better and only around $50 to $100 difference in price

Deffinatly wouldnt suggest dry on the 7th gens cause of the returnless fuel systems



But hey, its your car

yeah, if its on a 7th gen, youd better invest in a bigger fuel pump if youre going to go dry.

Use a wet kit, NOT dry. I have no respect for anyone who uses a dry shot.
Upgrade your fuel delivery (I/e electronic fuel pump). This is very important.
Make sure its computer WOT RPM activated.
Do not use zex or their products.
In fact, kits are a ripoff. Piecing together a nitrous system is much cheaper than buying a kit.

Also when using, I would reccomend retarding your timing 1-2 degree for every 50hp to the wheels added by nitrous.

Do you have any suggestions on some sites to find nitrous parts for my car?

Go ahead and "have no respect" for those who use dry kits cause I know of atleast 1 guy going 13.09 in the 1320 with a zex dry kit and bolt ons with a eg hatch and he has been doing so for quite a awhile with no problems
