    Welcome to the site mate!!!

    I would go for a good exhaust system to start with, and derestrict the airbox and fit a decent panel filter.

    Vid's looking at about 210 from his 2.2 mate. Do a search of his threads for his progress. He's fitted, 2.4 inlet manifold, free flowing zorst manifold, sports cat, stainless free flowing zorst, stage 1 cams, he's just waiting to fit 2.4 throttle body, 2L supercharged injectors and a remap. Although your z22yh is slightly different to the z22se that Vid and myself run the differences are only in the head so most of these mods should work in your yh. HTH

    Welcome to the site by the way.

    EDIT LOL, should have seen who was looking

    Nitrous Oxide - and don't buy it, just steal it from your dentist!

    Just wondering how much would it cost to get Nitrous Oxide set up on the Z22YH and what would be the power increase?

    I think an installed price is around £600-£800. can go higher if you want (or need) multiple injectors and electronic control (rather than on/off).
