Have to agree with this, would steer clear of nitrous.

Nitrous is very effective if done right. You need good tuning and the correct safeguards.

These motors can take a 125 shot easily. if properly tuned.

7 series plugs are fine for a small shot. u may have to gap them smaller however.

its a bit of a gimmick really.... i mean, who uses it often enough to justify having it on a road car? i suppose the compressed gas sticker makes a talking point.

i had it in my civic, (b16a2) 50 shot, used it once in a blue moon and during an RR session blew up the idle air control valve and toasted the induction kit.

i can live without it.

it blew up the idle air control valve

I had a 150bhp shot through a progressive controller on my Prelude and the idle control valve was never the same after. The engine did last for 1.5 years and it took a load of abuse but i'd never risk it on the DC5. I know Trevor from WON said a while ago that these engines can only take a 50bhp shot safely.

You'll need to gap the plugs down slightly to avoid the spark getting blown out.
