Anyone use it? I know Gaz'd on the corsa.
I know of a kit for sale, really fancy it 
Am I right in thinking as long as I use say 25bhp jets then I won't risk engine damage 
It's a wet kit BTW.

What engine are you planning on fitting it to? I run a 50 shot on my Corsa... It used to run a 75 shot but with a progressive controller

Nitrous is great stuff.
I ran it on my old red 2l Ecotec astra to great effect with a full hit 50bhp shot. the general rule is that 50% of your original engine power with nitrous is safe to run on your engine, but anything over 50bhp full hit is not really recommended.
you have to test it on 25bhp first anyway, but im sure you will want to upgrade to 50 jets.
if you want to know anything else in more detail then give me a shout

Why bother with Nitrous? Wouldn't it be just as cost effective to up the power another way on your car? or do you want Nitrous for the sake of having Nitrous like me

i have it on mine, its great fun. Ive never doe any damage with it at all and I even did a full run at totb without arming my fuel system lol.
I was running 140/60 i think direct, only thing that couldnt cope was the clutch, if thta had of held up I did fid some bigger jets but gave them back when my clutch started slipping.
Blowing your engine up is a myth but about by monkeys that dont know how to use it. For pure power gains for the money you cant beat nitrous.

yes indeed, it will be money well spent. Also I added lots of nitrous to my mates 1.2spi nova, look at the results.

Yeah, so I read 
Sounds a good idea all round then. Why the hell doesn't everyone get it?

i heard some insurance companies dont like covering cars with nitrous, but you'd have to ring them up
