Nitrous Civic Surprise

Well today, me and corey found ourselves bored, and what would you do on a sunday afternoon while you are bored? Install nitrous oxide on your daily driver of course, and then romp it on the dyno. So we got to work jamming the nozzle in the airbox, and quickly bridging power off the battery, and then grounding it with a rocker switch in the car, first placement of the nozzle in the rubber tube basically had no responce, weird... So corey jammed a screw driver into the side of the airbox and then we put the nozzle in there, this time its definately working. Now its time to toss it on the dyno. We managed a nitrous pull, and then we did a stock pull, gained 30whp on a 30shot, not bad at all! Upped the jet to go for a 3rd pull, and wouldent you know it. The tired old solenoid finally burned up, just flat out refuses to open. So, to be continued, and we are definately going to race this at the track.
