my civic is bone stock except for some ice.

i was thinking about getting some show and a lil go
17" rims with some sticky tires- yokohama es100 that are aa rated traction
a fifty shot of nitrous oxide.

so what would be the et on the track? i just want some go for once in a while

i say 15.8 or if good launch.... 15. that's what i think... dn't load too much gas... maybe 1/4 tank.

probably looking at mid to low 15's high 14's depending on engine type, tranny / driving skill, ect.

With a 50 shot of Nitrous, a D17A2 will not hit the 14's if the air intake & exhaust is not modified too, and a couple of other things.

Even with other engine mods, 50shot of NOS will not get him to the 14s. It will need a lot of modifications. It could happen, but not with "a few bolt ons"

Atticus

we can hope now, cant we.

i'd say 16's assuming you have ex model

I say you run and tell us.

Agreed. Also the bigger tires are going to slow you down as well. Can you even run nitrous through a completely stock engine w/o that engine falling to pieces? Even if you had intake and headers you still have to beaf stuff up just to protect the engine. Correct me if I am wrong.

DaddyFatSacks

OK, I will. Your wrong, NO2 can be used on a bone stock engine. Just wouldnt go over 50.

A property of nitrous oxide is that at about 565 degrees F., it breaks down into nitrogen and oxygen. When it is introduced into the intake tract of an internal combustion engine, it is sucked into the combustion chamber and, on the compression stroke, when the charge air temperature reachs 565 deg., a very oxygen-rich mixture results. If we add extra fuel during nitrous oxide injection, the effect is like a super charger or increasing the compression ratio of the engine. Automotive nitrous systems work like the automotive eqivalent of a jet's "afterburner" and is used for short duration extra bursts of power.

Nitrous oxide has this effect because it has a higher percentage of oxygen content than does the air in the atmosphere. Nitrous has 36% oxygen by weight and the atmosphere has 23%. Additionally, nitrous oxide is 50% more dense than air at the same pressure. Thus, a cubic foot of nitrous oxide contains 2.3 times as much oxygen as a cubic foot of air. Just do a bit of math in your head and you can see if we substitute some nitrous oxide for some of the air going into an engine than add the appropriate amount of additional fuel, the engine is going to put out more power.

You have to add more fuel to the mixture to get it to produce results. How are you going to do this with a completely stock engine?

I guess we are all assuming that he will be using a wet kit. you'll see hi-mid 15's
