Dosen't this sound like the Fast and Furious plot line (that's right the F&F and plot in the same sentence without non-exisistant preceeding it[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]) to anyone else?

Yea.. im not spending a $600+ premium on some cumputer controled crap thats going to end up screwing SOMETHING up eventually. There is nothing that kit does that warrents its outrageous price tag.

if i was anyone with a 2kx civ... which i am... i wouldn't use direct port. our intakes are plastic and wont be able to hand the pressure from 4 foggers. i think the minimum shot for a direct port is 75. you'd better hope you have strong internals and pray to god that your intake doesn't explode into many tiny plastic pieces. go with a stage 1 basic system and you should be set. or if you want DP, get a custom intake manifold and tap it for the foggers. just my $0.02.

I think I am going to order the NX 60 shot dry system. I am racing for ego mainly because we both go to te same high school. I am a soph, and he is a junior. If I lose I will never hear the end of it. I can't let a V8 take me down. This is why I needed the NX. Thanks for all of your help

Just curious how you are going to install a dry set up on your car?? [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] (by the way, a sophmore with a 2K1 Civic...must be nice. I drove to school in a busted *** 81' Datsan 210).
You can't use a dry system on your car. Go with the NX kit and use the 50 shot jets. About the best one out in my opinion. With no internal upgrades this will still yeail you the lower ET plus be safe for your enigine. Make sure it's install right and don't over rev it, under rev it, and ALWAYS use premium gas. It would be a good idea to run 1 step colder plugs. The one guy was right about DP but not becasue of the intake manifold,it's because you have no internal work done. To run a DP you should run a pretty sizable shot which you don't watn to do. You CAN run a 50 DP but it's a big waist of money when a NX Single fogger EFI 50 shot can do the same thing.

On a side note: Venom is a money pit that can blow me.
