Well Nos on any engine isn't good if u're not using it rite and did upgrade the fuel. Upgraded fuel rail and pump is pretty safe to run NOS. Yes theres a button and i'd say u turn it on on 3rd gear cause if u miss gear ..kiss ur engine good bye. To be safe leave it on for like 8 seconds Turbo i guess its easier to have. Upgrade ur fuel and tune it up just rite so u can drive it daily

if you want to get technical about it, th onlynos website is that of Nitrous Oxide Systems. or NOS.....the reason they used nos in the movie is because that was the only nitrous system they used....otherwise it is n2o or nitrous

n20 is a strong oxidizer. Basically it adds more oxygen to be burned. Just like a turbo or supercharger it crams more oxygen into the combustion chamber and combined with MORE FUEL makes more power.

not another F&F wannabe...
if u want a shot of NOS, go low like 50hp for starters. use the smallest nozzle available and upgrade the fuel system... eg. rails, injector, fuel pump. u need cold spark plugs and retard the timing also.
