yes i think thats impressive but i asked the kid if he rather have a B20 instead of a h22... i never said anything about a ls or even hinted towards i think ls are garbage ive seen matts ls and insanecivic's ls and both are very impressive... but what would that car run without the bottle?? and without drag radials?? imo the blue bottle only leaves room for excuses...

stock h22a on falken ziex's in a 92 civic hatch 13.4 allmotor

the only problem that ive ever had with nitrous is the bottle goes empty the turbo doesnt... if you have ever been to any type of drag racing "event" saturday night i know you have heard the famous "my bottle isnt full" or "i have low bottle pressure" dont get me wrong im not saying nitrous is cheating because ill be the first to admit ive seen way to many cars kick ass on the bottle but what happens when your bottle is empty... ive never like to use it because the bottle always leaves room for excuses IN MY OPINION... no hard feelings

dont take it the wrong way im not saying nitrous is cheating bc i believe in the old run what ya brung theory

and for the guy saying buy a tsi... and put money in it i guess teamcalloway is right its all matter of opinion and in my opinion your wrong

Thats what I always ask people. Perhaps someone did ask but I just saw 6 pages of different suggestions and bickering about motors rather than helping the person decide what to do.

Agreed.
