If my car could talk, I was wondering what it would tell me about the previous owner? I know I've heard around town that a guy used nitrous on it, and it has a loud a** exhaust on it.
Other than that I don't know. This is my first import, and all I can tell on my own is that he cut the fuel line to set up the N2O. I also think the line is leaking and honda want's to charge me 80 bucks for a fuel line. Any Ideas?

When I went back to stock I just went to Lowes and replaced the T-connector with a connector that was just straight and tightened it down really tight. It has worked just fine for me and cost like $.35.
Hey, thanks for the advice I fixed the problem. After spraying away about a quarter tank of gas, I went to the Home Depot, and bought some brass fittings with about an inch and a half on each side, and some kitchen sink sprayer hose. After about twenty minutes of trying to force the fittings into the kitchen hose I connected it between the fuel line and clamped it off. It hasn't leaked all week, and it almost looks professional.

you might watch that kitchen sprayer hose if fuel is running through it. Overtime fuel will eat most types of rubber, and you will have a potential fire hazard on your hands. I would replace it with actual fuel line just to be safe.
yeah, that could explain the stutter like acceleration I've been getting lately.

It might be time to go check the above posts and figure out how you're going to fix your fuel line for the second time. Might want to pick up some injector cleaner as well.
Yeah, I already fixed the fuel line, but i totally forgot to run my engine codes again. I just ran them and I have a 67 and a 9 (which were already here), and now I have a 14 and a 45.
The 9 is for a cyp (cylinder position sensor).
The 67 is for Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold
The 14 is for Idle Control System Malfunction
and the 45 is for System too Rich/Lean,
so as you can see, my molehill is now rapidly turning into a mountain.
