Is Nitrous worth it on an auto??

Is it really worth getting nitrous on an automatic that number one has no engine work done. Number two its an automatic.

Yes you can. You don't have to build up your engine to run nitrous. And an automatic doesn't mean you can't run it either. I ran 75 shot in my 98 EX auto with no issues.

Well I would suggest you look into the ZEX kits since they are pretty much a "ground level" kit. Very easy install.

Those guys are great. All they do are Hondas & Acuras. They can walk you through the install over the phone if need be. They also have good prices on their equip.

Well I could very easily smoke the tire off the lie (not suggesting that).

It depends on the shot size as to how much of a diffence you'll see.

i wouldn't recommend going w/ high shots NOS w/ no engine work done but it's up to u ........but i knew someone who had NOS i'm not sure how many shots but he had an automatic he blew it up i guess he didn't use it properly or something but if u really want it go for lower shots about 50 i would say

i hear nitrous is better an SAFER with an automatic! reasons for both, the engine does the shifting for you. you could get a ZEX but damn!!! they're a lot of money! i would/am going with a Nitrous Express Stage 1 Kit. works with an all stock motor, but if running 75 shot i would suggest getting some engine work done. first get a CAI, headers, exhaust, it will let your engine breathe a lot easier while working harder than it should. then get a new fuel rail, fuel pump, spark plugs this will almost guarantee that your engine wont "blow up" and will let you go a lot longer before signs of wear start showing.
