75 shot with ex manual

I have an 01 ex manual with soon to have upgraded exedy sport/street clutch. I know guys with auto run 75 shot, but can I? Will the longativity of the motor die quickly. I need this car for like 3 more years. I would really like to do 75, that would be awsome!

If you can manually retard the ignition timing...not the exhaustt timing, and assuming
you hook everything up correctly, you could be running a 75 shot.

a 75 shot is risky with our motors. i think around a 50 was the safe limit. But i'm sure if you did some internal upgrades, you know pistons, rods it would make the motor last longer. do a search for a nitrous *** it had everything in it

I was under the impression from talking to several people and reading several articles that running ANY Nitrous setup on a car, even if it's the lowest shot available, will tear it apart in just a few executions. Otherwise if I could just run a 50 shot safely using it maybe once in a great while (like at a track run) I would run that setup right now. But I am just afraid of the effects on the engine itself. Anyone know a good article anywhere that would give the true lo down on Nitrous?

i was running a 60 shot dry NOS system on a 93 Del Sol with a D16Z6 vtec single cam motor and it ran a 14.8 at pomona.... THe main thing you must do is retard the cam gear about 2degrees and also make sure you get a new high flow fuel pump and new fuel presure regulator and boost your fuel up to compensate for the NOS.... without enough fuel your engine will be damaged.....

NO way! I don't engage the N2O until second gear.

about retarding the timing. Check with the manufactor of the kit you buy. Mine say 2 degrees. Retarding you timing is how you compensate for fuel mixture. If you don't listen for the boom, then search for a RSX type S engine and perform a swap. Reinstall your N20 this time either run 50 shot or retard your timing.
