inhale the nitrous, then go driving when you are really high off of it. your car will feel sooooo fast!!!

hahaha
btw, inhaling automotive grade nitrous is no bueno. it contains large amounts of sulfur. it will kill your brain faster than it kills your engine.

haha yea well, when i was in high school, me and my friends had alot of fun with 33 gallon garbage bags and unused nitrous bottles out of our cars. then to later find out that there are three grades of nitrous, automotive, surgical and food grade. automotive has sulfur, surgical has oxygen and food grade is pure. they didnt give us a choice at the speed shop. it explained the taste of rotten eggs in our mouths.

i dont think honda's were meant for drag racing...sorry man, your better off buying another car...if you wanna turbo charge or super charge your better off with cars like an evo, lexus is, wrx sti, rx7...these cars handle boost much better than hondas...ur paying too much for insignificant gains for your fit...but i know how you feel, i would still get my fit supercharged anyways, no matter what others would say about how slow it is

i agree with jeimusu... buts whats with nawwwws be so bad.. nitrous is not a horrible... like any other power adder must have enough enough fuel/retard timing you'll be save... i would go with nitrous over supercharger... cost to power ratio is better.. you should run 50shot at ease i would defently not go higher and make sure you retard that timing and tune from there!!!

Hey hatchcrap-
Nitrous is cooler and introduces a higher ammount of oxygen into the cylinders then a turbo or s/c setup. Therefore it will wear your car / truck down quicker then any turbo or s/c setup.
I think nitrous works well with built cars / trucks. But as for a economy to standard cars / trucks the internals are just not built to handle the force. Plus keep this in mind...nitrous is like the drug of car / truck racing....once you get a taste u get hooked....then that 25 shot becomes a 35 shot....before you know it you are running a 50 shot. That's my 2.5 cent.
