how much power are you running now?

not convinced about nos.

would rather have an engine intended to run power all the time, and not in risky bursts!

have been advised to start with 50bhp on the standard clutch my car has 252bhp as it is so will be 300ish with the nos.

I've heard that NOS can put incredible strain on the engine internals, much more so than a turbo, I could be mistaken but i'd be very wary of fitting NOS to a scoob personally.
