Ok so Ive got an 88 n/a. I want a 50-75 shot of nitrous. My total budget is 1000 dollars. Do I have to upgrade my injectors to TII and get a Walbro fuel pump to run a dry kit? Im looking at the NX Hitman kit. Also since we dont have pistons, is it ok to spray at low RPM?

 

There is a nitrous writeup in the Archives. But go wet, you won't need injectors at least. This setup can easily be done for under 1000

 

Yea thats a good thread but hes no longer on here and he doesnt answer his email either. I think Im gonna go with the NX Hitman 50-75. The only thing Im wondering is where to place the button since its a push and hold deal. Im steering with my left shifting with my right... mount it on the steering wheel?

 

NOS WOOO! DIRECT PORT 200 SHOT!

Ok, serious time...

In my buddies BP FB that I drove, he had his linelock on the shifter and the nitro on the wheel. It was a pretty solid location I thought since you can control the car while you give it the extra power.

I don't remember if it was on mazdatrix or atkins, but they have a button that will mount on the stock wheel without cutting any holes.

 

Nice Ill have to check that out. I found a NOS system that uses a WOT switch but I would then need some sort of master toggle switch so that every time I floored it I wasnt spraying. Or I guess I could just turn the bottle off.

 

go with a wet system. that way you wont blow your **** up.


ps, rotaries LOVE nitrous.

 

The kits that have a WOT switch also SHOULD have a master arm switch as well.

 

I have an ACT clutch. Other than that you guys think my driveline can handle a 75 shot?

 

75 shot would fok up ur clutch. and stock timing fok up ur engine.

 

how i mounted mine back when i thought n2o worked with otherwise stock rotaries

master arm in the ashtray

wot switch placed behind gas pedal so at wot it wasn't hitting but if you pushed it further(flexed the pedal) it would toggle and you would be off... and 100 yards down the road you are calling a tow company. but man.. that civic had no idea what just hit him

 

Well the lowest rated ACT is 242 ft/lbs which a 75 shot would not produce although it may give due to the sudden spike in power. And everywhere Ive read states that stock timing is fine until 100+ shot. Read the archive thread on nitrous and rotaries. I plan on installing a window switch, heater, gauge, 93 octane, etc. all the safety measures. My injectors will be cleaned and balanced and Ill have an SAFC II to richen up the hi throttle setting. I also have a wideband O2 sensor. So is a 50 shot more realistic? Will a 50 shot have a noticeable difference? I want to shave a full second off my 1/4 time.

 

Personally, I would run a wet kit. And I would run 125 hp. If you're going to spend the money on a nitrous kit, make it worthwhile.

How low do you want to spray?

I'm not? Then where the hell am I?

Complete and total bullshit. If you have no idea what you're talking about, and you clearly don't, then don't post.

An ACT clutch and stock timing is fine for a 75 shot.

 

50 shot? sell your car and spend that extra grand on buying a turbo model. same horsepower without ever having to refill a bottle. best of all is that it comes with everything stock to make that kind of power.


seriously the n/a FC should have never been mass produced.

 

Yea that woulda been nice If all they ever made were TIIs but there arent any TIIs for sale near me when I bought the car or now. And Im not going through the trouble of selling my car in this economy right now. I like my car just fine.

 

I'll recommend you getting a second fuel pump, it doesn't have to be anything special... a stock honda pump or what ever. people spray wet kits sharing the fuel pressure from the injectors, all they doing is taking fuel out the injectors and feeding it through the nitrous fuel jet.. that is a nono.. if you want a properly done kit you will want to supply the kit with its own fuel supply

All you need is an use pump, a switch, a relay, fuel line from the tank, and a bracket to install the second pump in the tank.. you can zip tie it if you want to be cheap, it don't matter.

now you will be supplying the jets with the correct fuel they were suppose to handle.
$1000 is more than enough... if you really have that much i recommend you to get the a set of jets so you can tune it correctly, the numbers recommended by the manufacturers are crazy rich, you will want to either take fuel by using a smaller jet, or increase the nitrous if you want more power. a 50 shot is more like 38whp. You will need an o2 to check on your fuel tho.

you are welcome to pm me if you need more info. i play A LOT with it...

 

If you have 1000.00, you could easily turbo the 6 port and have a nice, safely tuned car for that price.


It would also be that extra 50-75 horsepower you were looking for initially @ low boost.

That is if you were looking for "any power" not "nitrous power".

Ofcourse, if you want nitrous and have your heart set on it go that route. I have never dealt with it 1st hand, aside from watching it orvel reddenbacher a few untuned honda engines.

Honestly, nitrous is not a safe way to go in general on a rotary, especially if you're unsure of engine condition. However, if you're quite insistent on running nitrous, at least run a wet shot

 

ok, so 1000 dollars is a little much. ive priced out a full wet kit with WOT switch for 300 shipped. I can get a bottle heater, pressure gauge, and window switch for about another 250-300. Im not going through the trouble of going turbo it would cost 1200+ for a TII engine and about the same for the swap. That is without swapping the drivetrain. Im going to buy an OEM TII fuel pump to be safe and I have an AEM wideband and SAFC if I need to adjust.

 

Heyyy! You're from my area! When you blow the living hell out of your engine with a $300 nitrous kit and have to part the car out, I claim first shot at the interior, k?

 

Gee some of you guys are soo helpful

 

I wasnt talking about a t2 engine...... i meant "turbo the 6port at low boost" run a search for 6 port turbo and a lot can come up. I would estimate, you could piece together a turbo "kit" with necessary fuel provisions for 8-900. Maybe even less.

Do your research before jumping on to the nitrous boat.

Drivetrain upgrade is completely unnecessary at that power level....clutch yes.

I put an s4t2 in my 20 year old bottom of the barrel se, it gets the **** kicked out of it and smiles.

I am running a 75 shot of dry nitrous on my 88 gxl n/a

what I'm running is a zex kit that taps into the tps, so that I just flick a switch and it turns on, and arms, it will not inject nitrous unless it's at WOT.

runs great gone through lots of bottles no detonation whatsoever.

only ran me 300 bucks!

 

A dry kit..........wow. How long have you had that on there?

You should go to atlantic city, seem really lucky.


john ny

 

i'm running a Zex wet with WOT switch. arm/dearm switch on the right side of the steering column, super stealthy, esp. with the bottle in the passenger bin of my GSL-SE (tII swap)

 

What jets you running on the zex wet?
