Streetcar Nitrous

Frankly, no. Might sound nice, but you'll be lucky to get 5-10hp and you'll need to spend some money on a decent system for that plus you still have to inform the insurance. Have you tried: Liverpool Victoria Greenlight Graham Sykes? Some of my customers have used them too.

You'll need to ring around some and make sure you tell the company it's a Wizards Of Nos kit by Highpower UK. Most insurers do not like the American based stuff because of the reputation. Adrian Flux insure nitrous, but even then you have to make sure you're talking to the right person. I can't imagine it will be any cheaper on insurance with an extra 50hp using a supercharger, mind you, they'll probably want to put up your premium if you've changed the exhaust to gain 5hp! Rob dog gits.

If you're worried about fuel economy, adding more power won't help you! Nitrous will also reduce your fuel economy as you are injecting more fuel to burn, the nitrous just promotes the burning. On the other hand though, nitrous is only used at full throttle when you actually want the extra power. Rest of the time you just drive with your standard engine. Small amounts of nitrous can have big benefits on forced induction cars by further cooling the inlet charge. If there's any questions I can help with, let me know. I'm an agent for the Wizards of Nos.

:zee: I am suitably impressed. I came across this topic to find that there were people on here actually talking sense about nitrous stuff. One of the main reasons for me becoming an agent for the Wizards, is I found out how inferior the American kits are through research. Shame I actually bought an American kit before I discovered the truth though. I actually fitted it too, but never used it and am now running WON kits on both my cars. Think I'll look around. :D
