wow that was quick, did you listen to me and use the NGK 2 step colder copper plugs or did you just go ahead and use the iridiums? Also, did you use the correct fuel/nitrous jets? I gave you like 8 posts worth of good information about the zex kit and you still killed your motor within a week h:

In all seriousness though, "REAL" nitrous isnt cheap and can be as reliable as turbo and N/A depending on how well you tune it and how well built your engine is.

Would you consider dual stage direct port nitrous on a fully built CRV-TEC cheating? I think not...

meh, the stagnant nitrous in the lines gets forced out in about 1/2 second. I wouldn't call that a huge difference :dunno:
