    I love my nitrous setup. Go with a wet kit. I prefer nitrous express. However, remember you have to get the bottle refilled. With turbo the power is always there. I have seen nitrous powered civics break into the 10's tho.

    i ran a NOS kit when i had my ZC. It was pretty good. But when yuor outta n20 your outta power frown
    if you are going to run it, get colder plugs, a bottle heater, purge kit, and retard timing 2deg for ever 50shot. an upgraded fuel pump may not be a bad idea either although not nessesary.
    A wet kit is nice, a dry kit is easier to install. either way, fun stuff biggrin

    i had it before and i loved it!!! it's not as bad as everyone says, the hole prob is the fuel to air thing, that is where you lose your motor, when i got the noz kit i did a lot of looking into. don't go any higher than the motor can take, and yes buil the stronger internals so you can run more. and don't over do it, it's kinda like a turbo, you have to let the car cool down after runs don't just use it and then jump up and use it once more. get zex that is the safest kit, call them and tell them what you are doing and they will tell you how much to run, 75, 50 ,100. but ask first. but man it is so fun. you pull up to another car and they don't know you have the shit. you let them get a little bit in front and psssssssssssssssssss you hit is and se'ya.....well have fun if you get it, but yeah buil it up so it can take alot.

    Nitrous is a very quick HP gain.. Take this advice, please.. Nitrous Express is THE best, hands down, nitrous kit.. we have tested all of them, and none can touch nitrous express with power gains, safty, and GOOD on your engine. I can get you the whole Nitrous Express GenX 2 kit which retails for well over $1,000 for $850.. the comes with all the extras.. don't be fooled by say the NOS $500 kit.. it comes with nothing, plus it isn't as good..
