IF you have the bottle in your civic when would you spray like i know not off the line but when should you? And how much difference would a 50 shot make?
Probably dumb question but just trying to learn

thanks man
Right before red line and shifiting! It'll keep the engine spooled during gear changes![]()
I use it with street tires. Pump them up to like 42-43 PSI, launch at about 4900 rpms spraying... then just hold the button down till you're done. Make sure you heat the bottle up to about 1200 PSI or it's useless.

~sigh~
Never... and I mean never, hit nitrous below 3,000rpms. Don't run it longer than 15sec. If you can't get to where you're going in that time... You're not going to get there.
50 shot will only make you want more. I personally wouldn't run any nitrous without an aftermarket ignition. Anything above a 75 shot I wouldn't run without upgraded internals in a Honda. My![]()
Not a Honda owner<; but in my opinion, I would spray as soon as 2nd gear hits as long as all the wheel spin is gone. Nitrous in my opinion would be the last resort I'd use after all my preferences. I'd build it all motor first and would try turbo before adding nitrous. I believe people that utilize nitrous before any major mod are just too anxious to be fast. But I understand the urge to want more. NX wet would be my choice if I wanted to use nitrous one day for fun.![]()
Sell your Civic and get a car that doesn't need Nitrous.
BTW I'd only pay attention to the 2 post above me.

X2. As in something with 4 extra cylinders.
Don't get me wrong, I love Honda's and just about all Imports... but getting them fast, is a whole lot more expensive than an ole muscle car. Now, don't get me confused.... when I say making a Honda fast, I mean 12 sec and under.... not a few simpe bolt on's and you beat a couple other honda's fast.
Example: I saw a '68 Nova on cglist.com yesterday for $3000. Had a sbc 350 bored .30 over with some other mod's, 12 bolt rear end, and a turbo 350 trans.
^^^ my example above... is probably faster than most Honda owners on here. With the exceptions of a few of course.
And also, my example above was only $3000.... which, in my opinion, has WAYYYYYY more value than a Honda with a nice swap/etc than go fro $5000+. Honda's/Honda owner have become crazy price wise. I would never in my life time spend $3000 + for a slow Honda that looks clean. I'd rather spend that money on something not that great looking but fast.
Just my.

Nitrous can be a real easy way to go fast for not that much money. But, by the time you do all the engine upgrades that you would have to do to a turbo car or supercharged car, the difference is not that much. Spray too much on an engine that is not built for it and it can blow pretty quick. If you really like nitrous, get a kit that will last you if you decide you want more. Right now I am debating on nitrous or a turbo on a 5.4 liter mod motor going in a 89 mustang. We might just do both! BIG turbo with a little nitrous to help spool that thing up. But then, we are shooting for the 9's in the 1/4.
Oh and don't even look at the dry kits. Not worth the time. Get a decent wet kit.

i had a stock gsr with I/H/E on a 75 shot an was pulling on itr swap civics an integras.
p.s
just make sure the bottle is at 1000psi![]()
shhh...
vtec game scArY. . !
what motor? what Trans? what RPM you turning?
50 shot on a D series is different than a 50 Shot on an LS or GSR.
Wet kit or dry?
Id spray once you hit 3rd gear. In second, its prob too soon the gear spacing isnt long enough (if you have a GSR or b16 trans).

I KNOW you are joking. Your example is by no means faster than most hondas on here. The man asked when to use his nitrous, not should he sell his car and buy a heavy, poorly engineered, 41 year old hunk of metal. Muscle cars are good for being real loud. Some are fast but you have to go deep into the motor to do so. even then the motors use a TON of gas and don't last long under abuse. Stick to helping the man with his questions and stop trying to give car advise. 4 more cylinders but twice as heavy, parts are crazy overpriced $$$, and if anything breaks it cost too much to replace them. Why should he go muscle car again? I missed that part!
thanks for all the help and i probably wont use spray now ill just keep saving for a swap.
And why the hell some of yall just like to make people feel stupid on here it was just a question

Ok, you apparently have NO knowlegde in muscle cars/V8 motors!!!
ANY car can be real loud.
Same with ANY car, again. Nothing is going to be SUPER fast unless you start with building it, internally. So don't give me that shit, dumbass.
I'll give you the gas thing but don't last under abuse....EL OH EL!!!!! Please.... I've ragged so hard on a few sbc motor me and my dad have built. EVERY single one handled the abuse. This statement you just put, PROVES, you do not know anything about this subject. Big block motors can't be twisted like small blocks, so I guess thats what you were referring to when you said couldn't last under abuse. If not, you're just a dumbass.
Yep... twice as heavy but enough HP/Tq to back it up. Overpriced?! That all you got?! Please.... just like any other car, shit cost money.
How bout you reply back with some DECENT knowledge on this subject or not post anymore making yourself look even more stupid.

lol @ parts are crazy overpriced for muscle cars
You're high as fuck. You can build an 8 second camaro for 20k, just try that with an import. Same with 10, 11, 12 second muscle cars.
Don't get me wrong, I like imports and I know turbo + D or turbo + B or turbo + K = fast. But seriously, I have $2k in my car and it's almost to 12's on street tires... it can go either way.
But I know that's not what this thread was about...

R.I.P steven bond....
point is. muscle car or import. doesn't matter to this thread, he wanted to know when to use his nitrous. and its always the big headed muscle car guys who come in and tell him to get rid of his import. learn your place. when it comes to it, you are on an import site. gm/ford arent imports so why even be here? but i agree i was a little overboard, but it pisses me off everytime somebody has a question on here, its always...... why not just get rid of your import and get a muscle car. if he wanted one he would have one. bottom line.
run a wide open throttle switch.
yes i am....
Why do a turbo set up before spray set up? If you have to ask or are unsure about using spray you shouldn't even bother. There is nothing wrong with learning what needs to be done to set up for spray and how it works. I would go built motor+spray over F/I any day.
Note: I am serious until the last sentence, only some will get that joke.
I used to launch on the spray. Went 10.6 @133 on a stock ecu H22 Civic.
