Nitrous

I'll be getting my wife a minivan sometime in the next year or so so the EL will become my daily driver. Has anyone considered a nitrious kit for one of these? Just looking to see what the results where with stock injectors and a niitrous kit.

Let me know.

I don't know about the EL specifically, but considering it's similarity to the civic, I am gonna guess that the EL can take a 50 shot dry kit without any problems... well, beside the inherent risks and issuses associated with nitrous.

the injectors should be able to handle the occasional increased demand. but I assume you won't be WOT all the time.

just make sure you buy a quality kit.


good luck


and welcome to acuraworld.

Retard the timing by 1 degree for every 25 shot.

meh...

that's a decent amount of adjusting for something that won't be used all the time. I have not had problems with the 50 shots...

I would only adjust timing if I was doing runs at the track...

and since I would only recommend using your nitrous at a track, you can mess with the timing for the optimum set up when you are doing your runs.
