Ok, I personally think that Nitrous is a cheap-and-easy way to get significant HP gains, but I've been thinking more and more about it lately.

I know that some of you have it on your civics and I'd like some SERIOUS!, realworld replies on this one. NO WHORING!

Please explain the types of kits, manufacturers, prices, positives & negatives of each of the kits and brands.

Thanks fellas! I think a lot of us out here will benefit from a thread like this. :thumbup:

 

umm do a search i did this already.. lol i will find the link and bump it up.. had some good info in it

 

nos for the name
zex for the simplicity
nx for the power

nuff said

 

i thought about that also.. and i just hooked an NX kit up about a week or so ago in my friends car.. and i got thinking.. yeah a 50 shot feels a little more than an NOS 50 shot.. so there is a SIMPLE answer.. they are jetting more juice... power comes from two places fuel (actual fuel and air) and spark.... we know its not adding more spark.. so to make the shot stronger it MUST be adding more "fuel"

moral of the story... if a car can handle a 70 shot NX then maybe it can handle a 80 shot NOS.. but theres really not that big of a differance..

 

I know, their jets are bigger.

 

I have a zex kit but I haven't hooked it up yet. Their kits are real easy to understand and operate. There's only one switch to activate it and then once you're at WOT the boost kicks in.

 

Supposedly, NX rates their kits at the wheels

i.e. NX 50 = 50whp
NOS 50 = 50bhp

 

How would you set up a system with a turbo? I know nothing about the different nitrous systems (wet, dry, fogger...)

I know what nitrous does and the theory behind it, I just don't know how it all applies...

More info.

 

as far as i know (which isn't a lot when it comes to TURBO AND NITROUS) you wouldn't... go dry.. i THINK nos makes a kit specificaly for turbo applications

 

Is this kit any good?
