have the opportunity to buy a NOS kit at the right money...

would this be a good addition to the current spec of GUG... the kit is 30-50-70bhp shot depending on which nosel end used... thinking for use with quatermile runs...

has anybody here used or fitted nos? does anybody have any opinions?

thanx

Dale had 125bhp nitrous injection on his 2.5, went really well, he ended up with the controller too and he loved it!!

I hated it as I could never keep up!!!




( not something I need to worry about now tho :lol: )

1 reason why not to go for NOS.
in 8 years i've never had problem, thats caused by neglect and poor maintenance of the system

be carefull with that engine, its in a high state of tune and will be sensitive to a NOS application.

hi mate elf here had 100 bhp of nos fitted to my sport.i got told that size engine could take it as long as its in short bursts,my bottle is biggest you can get lasts 6 mins.mostly depends on engine size and condition(e.g 1000cc engine 100bhp nos=no engine)
