i think with that big of a shot u might want to go with a sleeved block and lower compression pistons

Oh shit!

By the way, with that 150 shot, make sure you dont blow the welds on the intake!

Make sure you reinforce your floor paneling just incase it falls off at high speeds!

Make sure you double clutch all the way to 6th gear, you dont wanna be granny shiftin!

well what route would you go with a base rsx
depends on what you're looking for.

all motor, n2o, or boost.

boost means most performance, least life, most wear and tear.

all motor means gradual performance, least wear and tear, long life.

n2o means performance when you want it, no extra wear and tear when you don't.

however, with a shot that big, you're asking for issues. I'd never reccomend going over a 100 shot on an rsx, let alone a base.

if you're looking for a 300hp beast, you have two options in my mind... sell the rsx, or feed it a turbo and deal with the short life.

150 shot would require different plugs, fuel injectors, etc, right? So wouldn't driving the car run slower since your not feeding it all the nitrous its tuned to work with? Colder plugs w/o nitrous isn't the best.. your car will be a lot slower then stock then.

best bet is beef up the bottom end and use a 35-50 shot until you know how your car handles and you feel comfortable. 75-100 shot is a lot for most people.. I couldn't imagine 150 in an rsx...ahh!!!

Colder plugs will not hinder performance when off the bottle. It will however cause carbon build up if you drive "normally." With warmer plugs, it allows all the carbon to get burned off, but with colder plugs, it needs to be run a bit harder for it to achieve that. Colder plugs are meant to be run at higher rpms at a longer period of time. If you drive normal all day everyday with a set of colder plugs, you will start get get some carbon build up. That will hinder performance.
