i ran it for a while, a bottle lasts 3 minutes on a 55 shot. 3 mins is a long time when your spraying max like 8-10 secs at a time. ghetto turbo is selling a nice kit for 240 shipped rightnow i believe.

Thats not too bad. How much does it cost to fill up. I know it varies, but with your experience, what was about average to refill.

Actually I think it's ghetto-D selling it. Looks like a decent kit. It's in the for sale section.

I just say that it's pretty week in stock form. A non vtec, with 106hp, sohc, hard to make fast, etc. Which intake mani is good to go with. I hate that you have to spend like 300 for a bolt on to get 10hp, they say, which I have heard is more like 3.

Yeah, it is ghetto d. I jsut looked at it. It looks pretty cool, I jsut dont know much about nitrous kits. Seems like a fair price though. Besides nitrous and turbo is there much hope for a d series. By hope I mean need some mo powa

Sucks to be you man...
you can do this though...get the dough for a cheap greddy kit with carb sticker...and put a bigger turbo on it with a BMC racing adapter plate and some bigger injectors and get a AFC...that would be better...and when going to inspections..just replace the injectors and put back teh FMU
Or you could go hardcore put your HMT kit and go back to stock everytime for inspections...

semnos....I have considered doing that believe me, but I dont want to do anything shady. I would be happy with a carb legal greddy even in it's standard form, but unfortunately they cost too much for me. thats why I came to HMT to learn to do it cheaper. It's just unfortunate that it's not smog inspection material.
