A well looked after engine should be able to cope with NOS. Some of the guys are running 400-500 bhp on their engines so you shouldn't worry about the extra 50-75 + bhp you will get from NOS. ________________________________________ sharland wrote: Your life is like an action movie.

It could blow the welds on the intake If its done properly and isnt running stupid amounts it should be fine, Fletch ran 75 and 100 shots I think on standard internals, He could be worth a pm ________________________________________  RIP Pete Sims |

i have used nitrous on 2 different cars in the past, both where vauxhalls fitted with the c20xe redtop engine.i used a wizards of nos kit on both occasions and ran 50bhp full hit without a controller, a properly set up kit with the correct jetting shouldnt cause any problems on a heathly engine. just make sure you use decent 98+ octane fuel too as this helps reduce the risk of det when on gas. |

ive run 75bhp of nos without a controller.. with no issues...unlikely to see big problems.. but running lean is an issue  ________________________________________ Team Supercharged Gti-6NV Motorsport Automotive Performance Tuning 0121 448 7515 ECU Remapping/ DPF removal VAG/BMW Diag and Option Coding Peugeot Planet ECU coding/transponder programming etc www.nvmotorsport.com Facebook Page Project S6 |

Stick to a wet kit and you should be fine. However be careful your passenger footwell doesn't fall out spontaneously |

I know that guy with the mini pick-up... It's ballistic!  This thread is interesting! I am pretty tempted to go this route! Didn't even realise people were putting nos on these engines... I guess it would work pretty well when coupled with throttle bodies...  ________________________________________ Thomas - Black 6 rollin' on black 15's...197bhp - 155.8bhp/135.4ft-lb atw |

Forgive me if this is a silly question but doesn't running NOS slowly erode the exhaust and cylinder / head / valves / piston etc due to the nitric acid created?Just what someone once told me and i've never really looked into it myself to find out for sure.  ________________________________________ Goldie the track car. |
