Nitrous Application Questions

Just for those who like to flame, I did do a search and did not find all the answers to my qu's. I'm looking at the Nitrous eXpress kit featured in the Honda Tuning Magazine (50 shot). Full deal, remote opener, bottle heater and whatnot. But my questions are:

1. Can this be done to a stock LX?
2. If no, what other modifications would be required besides the ones that would be included in the kit?
3. Is an aftermarket clutch necessary?
4. And finally how much and how often does the bottle have to be refilled? (Can. prices if possible)

All help appreciated, thanks.

No flames, you said nitrous instead of "NOS"


1) yep
2) n/a
3) depends, but I'd say use the stock clutch till it goes then throw an aftermarket one in
4) sorry, I dont squeeze so I'm not too familiar

anythin else? [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

to answer question # 4: with a ten pound bottle you can get about 15-20 8th mi. passes,
depending on the size of jet your using. so, you can kinda estimate what you could do with a bigger bottle.

An aftermarket clutch is a good Idea.....you need one after a little while....depends how much you use it......Our clutches cant handle an extra 50 horsies shot to them like that.......(multiple bottles)....

yea, lx is fine....cost......depends where you live.....
