how about nitrous

i think if the manifold and cams and its chipped it should b able to take about 50 bhp worth of nos easily should b fun nos in a micra

its when you open your boot and people see nitrous in the boot of a micra
haha
 
Avoid at all costs any USA nitrous kits. They are appauling.
 
as said if it can handle the power :) i dont think it would make much diffrence really, only on the track would it come in handy.... i wouldnt pay that much money for something that iam not going to use.
 
Yeah i think Ed's an authorised Wizards of Nos supplier, and has it fitted in his car.
 
NOS is good fun, it makes 1.0 micras faster than supercharged jaguars.
 
where would the nos jets go on a k10 ed?, would they be drilled into the inlet manifold or placed before the carb?

also how much would a kit cost from you for my k10
 
are there any legal implications with nos? im sure iv heard that there can be?
ive got to start questioning single mods worth more than my car!
 
Not sure on the legalities for road use, but it's the one thing that seems to uniformly get insurance companies cacking themselves...think the only people who'd insure it are specialists like Adrian Flux or Greenlight, neither of which are possible due to your age (AF require modded car owners to be 19+, Greenlight 21+).

If you get a nitrous install wrong it can make a most spectacular pop, I'm not proclaiming to know everything but I've heard bad things about Wizards of NOS as well mate.

"Q) Is nitrous legal on road cars?

A) The legality of nitrous use on the road varies from country to country, even within the EU. However, contrary to what many people believe (including some police officers) nitrous oxide injection is legal for road use in the UK and many other countries (just as are turbo chargers and superchargers). According to the Ministry of Transport, the Highway Code and the MOT handbook there is no law prohibiting the use of nitrous injection. However just as with any tuning modification, the owner must inform their insurance company and obtain adequate cover otherwise any performance modification would be illegal. Therefore the only way you will break the law by having your street car fitted with a nitrous kit in the UK, is if you fail to inform your insurance company that you have one. Insuring a nitrous injected vehicle has become easier since WON joined forces with Adrian Flux to provide all their customers with a better chance of obtaining adequate insurance cover. Some other insurance companies such as Greenlight Insurance also offer cover for nitrous equipped cars.

There is a degree of confusion over the need to have a hazard warning sticker on the outside of the car. We previously explained that nitrous oxide is neither a flammable nor a hazardous gas but it is an oxidiser. There is a legal requirement for commercial vehicles to display a suitable sticker but this does not apply to private vehicles, which are not even obliged to display a green compressed gas sticker. However, displaying such a warning sticker might well be advantageous to you and the emergency services if you were to be involved in any kind of accident, as this would inform them that you were carrying a container of compressed oxidiser."

I'm pleased that info came in handy and that you guys found it before I could pass you the link.. GOOD DIGGING Bence!
BTW chaps, that info is from a road law speciallist...the link to the original source is on the wizards site too

i personally havnt heard of wizard of nos i would of proberly gone for nos or nx


EEK! avoid US NX..etc


The wizards forum is a great place to find the answers to MANY questions on nitrous injection.....also there is a book by the wizards for less than £20 that you can get from Ed's shop or from the Wizards direct.....its a very informative read


You can inject below the carb (in the manifold) too...either directly below the carb for single point or just after the 2-4 branches for a 4 injector setup....not sure which will produce the best results......
