2006 Honda Civic 2.0 Nitrous Express Hitman EFI


1. The K20 is the new engine of choice for Honda, powering everything from the Civic to the CRV. We start by disassembling the stock airbox.

2. The K20 is uncorked with a K&N short ram intake. The Piranha nozzle will be tapped into.

 


3. The intake fits snugly on the throttle body. With a full 3" plenum, this intake swallows vastly more air than the stock airbox.

4. The owner of the Civic opted for a throttle activated switch instead of the more popular push button. The systems comes on only at full throttle and cuts off automattically when the pedal is released.

 

5. The Civic has three switch panels ready for just such an application.

6. Adding some visual flair is the optional aircraft style covered switch.

 

7. Here we see the microswitch bolted behind the pedal. Stepping on the pedal closes the circuit spraying the nitrous and fuel.

8. The two solenoids are mounted close together and all the lines are attached.

9. The battery bracket provides a convenient place to mount the bracket holding the solenoids.

 

10. We drill the intake for the Piranha Nozzle.

 

11. And screw in the bung where the nozzle will go.

12. Here is the attached nozzle.

13. All newer cars feature a solid plastic fuel line encased in rubber. We splice this and put a T fitting for the fuel supply to the solenoid.

14. We run the wires and nitrous lines through the driver side firewall.

15. Black car equals balck intake at the owner's request. Here is the completed nitrous install.

 

16. The tank was mounted near the back of the trunk so that maximum trunk space is still available for things like golf clubs.
