ok ive been considering nitrous for many reasons. the main reason being cost, and potentially lower maintenance becuase i will probably rarely use it becuase i only goto the trrack once in awhile. also i just wanted to see if anyone has experience any major headaches after using it for awhile, say like a few times a week.

so:
what kit do you have?
manual or auto?
how long have you had it installed?
how often do you use it?
any signs of wear or abnormalty of engine?
maintence that you have done on your car becuase of nitrous?
mods you have?
numbers if any?
1/4 times if any?

thanks
Mike

do u think its necessary to get a tranny cooler for a 55+ shot? ive seen some at www.jegs.com but i dont know which is good. ive also read on www.honda-tech.com that cooling the tranny too much is also just as bad as it over heating. from what im reading optimal temp is like 175F.

im also worried about spraying at full throttle during shifts. i heard that u can get a window switch so that it only sprays wen armed and at full throttle between desired RPM's. does the zex kit have anything like that? whats involved in setting something like that up.

how often do you spray? do you use a window switch? did you do things like get colder plugs and retard timing?

i spray more than i should. im lookin to get some colder plugs. and i have no idea on how to retard the timing. does anyone know how to do this

 
Rep Power: 334

i beleive u retard the timing by getting an adjustable cam gear say like the one AEM makes.

yeah i have the aem cam gear laying around my room somewehere. ill probobly put the cam gear on and the kms intake manifold at the same time

No no no!!! you dont retard timing like that. That retards valve timing, but what you need to do is retard the ignition timing. And right now, i have yet to find a way to do that.

If you can find a way to retard the ignition timing safely and effectively, i will give you 300 points!
