50 shot nitrous on stock clutch??

[bikener]

I've already got bolt on's on my car, looking for a bit more Zoom. Could i run a 50 shot nitrous with my stock clutch??

what about my engine, it has 210k miles and is stock, will it hanlde the spray and how much??

[93accordexcoupe]

yup, just dont be dumb with it. get colder plugs and run premium.

[bikener]

75 shot??

[93accordexcoupe]

dont push it

learn how to use your 50 shot first and read up on it more before u just bump it up

[bikener]

so is a 50 shot equivilant to 50hp? how does that work? what is the most hp i could squeeze out of a 50 shot?

[93accordexcoupe]

thats how they rate the shots yes

Yeah a 50 horse shot should give about 40-60 wheel horespower depending. What do you mean how does it work? I want to know why nitrous, for the money you can get more dependble power.

because its not something you have to get tuned for. for $500 its something that doesnt put strain on your motor all the time like a turbo or a supercharger. its a plug and play affair(for the most part).


instead of paying $1400 for a H22 swap or $1200 to boost your F22a, you can spend $500-$600 on a nitrous kit and be able to hang with those swapped accord, civic, and tegs with no problems(if you already have some mods like the I/H/E combo).


if im wrong someone correct me

there is alot of info on the net about hondas. hondoogle.com is a search engine. I dont like it or use it because it doesnt have advanced searching or other things like that. But if you look around a bit you find more info. For now a few things to consider before adding nitrous is all aspects of fuel delivery.

this was the only thing that was helpful out of your post.

this is the beginners section. if your response has the word "search" in it, dont post. he asked a question, just answer it. sometimes the info up here doesnt contain info about spraying a 210k mile motor. so searhing doesnt always help. im a freakin mod and the things i search for dont turn up.


to the OP, heres a thread that help you a bit. it helped me out a lot when i was thinking about spraying:

also talk to RICHIE*GT35R. he was running a 75hp shot on his a6 and has since moved up to a 100hp shot. he's very helpful and willing to help you out if your willing to listen

So what is the safe shot limit my clutch can handle?? I just just got it installed from napa. They said it was an equivalent or a little bit better than the stock clutch. If im only spraying to the max my clutch can handle, what type and brand of system would you suggest i go with??

being that you just got a new one installed then you shouldnt have much to worry about. i just wouldnt go trying to spray a 100 shot before anything else. lol.

this is taken from the Nitrous FAQ in the performance section:

Can I run nitrous on my car?
Nitrous can be run on pretty much any car, whether it be stock or a fully built NA beast. If you have an older car or one with many miles on it, you will want to run a compression check. The numbers for each cylinder should be pretty close to each other and within Honda specs. For example, if you had 240, 238, 242, and 245 on a JDM H22A then it would be safe to run nitrous on that engine.
Secondly, aftermarket chips, ECUs, and Venom control modules that advance the ignition timing are not safe to use with nitrous. You may be able to use an MSD ignition timing controller or a Jacob's nitrous mastermind to retard the timing only when you are spraying, but it is very important to follow the rules for retarding your ignition timing when you are spraying nitrous. I will discuss these rules later in this post.
Finally, nitrous loves high compression, but the nitrous fuel ratio has to be tuned very precisely. 100 octane fuel will make it much easier to run high compression and nitrous, but it can be done to an extent on premium pump gas and good tuning.

a stock clutch should be able to handle it fine just as long as your not spraying while your leaving from every light.

as far as companies to go with, Zex seems to be popular due to the fact of the "brain box" they have. kinda makes it fool-proof.

always start off low with nos. 50 shot will be ok. you'll feel the boost. remember, it's not like the movies ok. as for your clutch, it's never a bad idea to install a better clutch. however, if it's not slipping now, you'll be fine. as stated before, get colder plugs and run 91 octane. also, I would retard the timing to 14 degrees.
