Has anyone here used a nos system on a n/a? If so what can you share. I have had them on v8's when I was younger but I am concerned about using it on my 7. But it is such cheap HP. This is for my daily driver and I want to be able to dust these turbo civics around here when needed.

Uh... well, I hate to break it to you, but power/weight ratios dictate that all things being equal, you probably won't be "dusting" turbo civics with just N2O 
They're probably making 200 hp at the wheels, and you'll be lucky to put 190 on the juice... and they weight 200 lbs lighter...
With that said, wet 50 to 100 shots with very careful use and good tuning shouldn't hurt your engine too much. I was thinking about the Holley NOS Nitrous #5132 kit. Check http://www.fc3s.org for a pretty good writeup.
