Nitrous Is200

[coolrides]

have been asking mark from tdi about nitrous kits and think i might go for it. 75bhp progressive shot should perk things up a bit when needed. and normal fuel consumption when not using it. sounds good to me.

need to empty my pockets out now count the pennies. still looking for a local installer (northern ireland is still in dark ages of tuning shops lol) but if not will have to make the trip to tdi

let us know how you get on,cos ive considered this approach and 99% certain now im gonna do it in the new year.

[coolrides]

will let you no dont worry about that, they do 6 month intrest free but would like to pay most upfront so got to tint some windows to get my pocket money lol

I had it done to my IS200 (s/c'd as well) cost £2400 (TDi did it)

Gave a nice kick BUT its not like any other mod (s/c turbo etc) where you pay £XX and thats it................the NOS lasts only seconds for a 10lb bottle...........

insurance will kill you as well as most companys will not cover you

how long will a 10lb bottle last?

[Monster-Mat]

how long will a 10lb bottle last?

depends how much you use it......really

i take it a 50 shot would last longer than 75 shot but is there a rough time of say continuos use, not that you would always be using it. 10 minutes? more? less?

what kit will be fitted and what cost have you been quoted. i ran a 75shot progressive using wizard of nos kit with 11lb bottle total cost was 1k supplied and i fitted myself.

i was talking to WON not so long ago about a kit for mine. What i would say is make sure you only buy a 'wet' kit and make sure you get a progressive controller - minimax or similar.

You will easily be able to get it supplied AND fitted for less than £1500. If you do some of the install yourself (fit the brackets for the bottle etc etc), then the labour charge will be a lot less. WON have no problems with the buyer part fitting the kit, so don't think that to be an issue mate.

I would say your best bet would be to get a WON kit, they are very reliable and have a good reputation.

As for the cost of the NO2.......the suppliers rob you raw!! It helps to work in a chemistry lab for some things :D

TDI supply the kit i think it is wizard of nos kit too. what all was involved in the fitting? i have fitted a turbo kit to a ford ka before but have never dealt with nos??

what is the difference between wet kit and dry? i prob just set myself up for some stick for asking that lol. you know what i mean.lol

[sparkystav]

A wet kit sprays Fuel in as well, whereas a dry kit just sprays nitrous IIRC.

ah get you know. the ones i have been looking at have 2 seperate nozzles that spray so take it thats a wet kit. does it plum into the petrol tank then?

[sparkystav]

No it plums into the fuel line in the engine bay. That bit is best done by professionals.

ive got a fuel rail for the IS300 already plumbed for fuel line take off, are teh fuel rails the same on the IS200.

how much are tdi charging for for labour.

No good taking it to Tdi then as i was told at jae, that the best 2 professionals have left

[coolrides]

my idea may be at an end hear. have been looking for places that will refill bottles in northern ireland so far with no joy whatsoever. trying to do my homework before i get an install. any ideas of places that would keep nitrous for other use that would do the job?????

[sparkystav]

Dentists?

[coolrides]

Dentists?

is it the same stuff?? i no a dentist wont sell you it but it could be a starting point where to source it?

[sparkystav]

Nitrous Oxide, laughing gas.

I dont know if its exactly the same but like you said, may be a start.
