thats not going to last long. thats a large shot, your going to fry piston rings, melt the cat, damage o2 sensors, run real real lean. <-- it will ONLY run lean if the fuel system is inadiquate... you can EASILY build a totaly streetable 11/12sec juiced honda... fuel is an issue with ANY forced induction... you have to remember in turbo or Supercharger applications you HAVE to rely on fuel injectors to add more fuel.. NOT so on nitrous.. since most high HP kits are direct port or plate, adn they add fuel DIRECTLY the only stock fuel parts they rely on are the lines filter and pump... so you can get MORE fueling through nitrous without buying injectors liek turbo.. in almost EVERY GOOD honda turbo setup ive seen.. aftermarket or other oem injectors are used since the stack ones are inadiquate... put a price tage on your 300 hp turo motor.. including fueling, intercooler, motor internals etc. and see what number you come up with... i bet you could do that on the bottle with a FULL engine build and NEVER worry about breaking it on STOCK injectors..

turbo's have shown their power on the drag strip.<-- i agree FULLY just costs too much to do it right

it CAN be done with an all motor build and n2o, and if you can not be spray happy, n2o is a great power adder, but if you want to build a fast car, you get a 7-8psi fast spooling turbo, total seal rings, 9.5:1 compression pistons and a tuned vafc and you should be fine for reliablilty <-- you will need WAY more tunign than this for 300 hp at the wheels.. i honestly don't feel the stock injectors can support that kinda demand... and rings and pistons?? now you are talkign again about building the motor... you gotta compare apples to apples... start with the same block... give each = funds... with proper tunign on both the sprayed car will be able to support more HP or support = HP cheaper[b]

you had nitrous so you of all people should know... the ONLY enemy of nitrous is poor tuning
