I was wondering. Is it possible to get NOS into your car? And if is, how?

Nitrous Oxide System I think is what NOS stands for...

Now it really depends with you car. you might need to modify your cooling system for the engine to handle the additional heat that it will generate. Using NOS means pushing your engine to the brink of breaking down, so you must take those precautions like cooling and engine specs. Some engines might handle it, some won't.

Anyway, NOS would not be really that much of a spectacle if you don't do some modifcations on the engine anyway... why bother putting NOS on some lame car right? [img]smile.gif[/img]

I've put NOS into a few of my cars. Anywhere from about 100hp-400hp gain. Cheapest horsepower going.

Yes cheapest horsepower going and fastest engine meltdown you can imagine!

If you wish to run NOS try running your car on jet fuel first. Most heavily worked cars need jet fuel to run but do it for a week and it will be like running NOS for about a minute. If your engine lasts with that you can do some serious modifications and then run it on NOS. Running NOS without the proper modifications is not only going to kill the engine but most certainly the car and person within also.
