Who is useing NOS

I know I don't have a single turbo but I am looking to get a little more power out of my twin set up until I can go single.Anyone useing NOS and if so what shot. And if you are did you ever have the car dynoed with it off and then a run with it on.What kind of extra horse power did it put down to the wheels.I was told that a 50 shot will acually put down 100-120 to the wheels because of the NOS being so cold with the turbos just works miricals and I was told this from a very reliable person.

You may see 75 or so from a 50 shot with the stock intercooler. But with a big front mount, expect 50-60 depending on conditions. Your charge temp is probably only 20-30 degrees above ambient. I think Steve Kan's 50 shot got him right at 50. You may want to consider a pop off valve if you run a wet kit....it may save that intercooler in case there is a backfire.

a 50 shot wont give you 100+ by itself..as stated itll give you around 50 hp +- 10. I dont suggest running NOS at the IC, that is dumb. Using a Wet shot direct port or at the "elbow" will you give better results..Wet kits are the way to go with turbo cars..

ignition timing and octane level are the key words

Who makes a good kit for spooling my turbo? I have a t61 in a Q trim and .84 housing. I would like a small shot for off the line.

you could spray w/ pump gas 93 octane BUT i would recommend spraying w/ race gas only..for the added knock resistence

personally i dont run NOS but my good friend does but i plan on running NOS this summer
