Yes- but you'll have to replace stock gaskets and lines for NOS compatible ones.Still, I wouldn't recommend it. If you have extra cash, then give to the poor.

Yes....If you dont use the proper electronics or dont know how to use it then you get what the guy above me got! A small shot on just about any motor is fine and there is no such thing as a gasket made for nos let alone stock lines for nos( stinky you have no idea what your talking about)...Where do people come up with these things. Make sure you look into a window switch!!A turbo is no different Compression>Turbo.............wow

No way, it would literally fry! Save up, leave the car standard and buy a faster motor that will be much better! Making a car faster is OK but you also need to uprate the brakes and suspension to suit....Big money!Jordan: Your a Knobhead!

Dont listen to the scare tactics of the idiots who know nothing.Just make sure you take it to a place that knows what they are doing and have years of experience. I run a series 7 celica 1.8 T-Sport with NOS the celica has variable valve timing similar to the Honda. A 50 bhp shot of NOS should need no other alterations to timing or anything. Should you want above 50bhp then you need to start messing with timing and uprating the engine. DO NOT FIT A NOS KIT YOURSELF unless of course you want melted pistons.PS: ive been running NOS in my celica for 2 years and not had a bit of trouble with it.

a turbo will raise your effective compression more then nitrous" saying nos makes you a poser"keep it around a 50 shot and you should be ok.just be prepared when you try to play with the big boys you will break things.Now the real fun is using the nitrous to spool your turbo.
