Default NOS

Has anyone here ever put NOS on their car? Is it worth the money? How much horsepower did you get?

i take it your speaking of nitrous oxide in general. it is and will always be the cheapest bang for your buck. nitrous kits can be adjusted from as low as 30hp and upwards of 500hp. i personally have ran zex, nx, and nos. my personal favorite has been zex with its ease of installation and operation, although my nx kit was by far the best as far as performance being that it was a direct port kit.

just remember, nitrous is a bottle that you have to refill if you want to keep it around, and its about 40 bucks a fill. a turbo or SC is always there. nitrous is only there for you to use if the bottles full and turned on.

I would like to get NOS for my car. It's totally stock from the factory. I can't get a turbo or supercharger or anything. NOS is probably my best bet.

your best bet would be invest in a good intake/exhaust, then mess around with nos.
