Question

I've been offered a Nitros kit, it's a dry fuel (??) one and is good for 150bhp!! He had it in a Mustang before, but now is happier with a turbo and the car is good for 450bhp.

That aside, should I take him up on the offer of the kit?? What might happen to the engine if I use it??? What upgrades would I need to do the engine??

Am I just being stupid, as it's a UK car???

Try giving Chris a call at Regal, in Southampton.
He has loads of experience with Nitros and turbos. My mate runs their demo car with both.
Their number is 023 80 22 1542.

I just wanted to gauge the general feeling on the topic. I was told that this is quite a normal modification in Oz, so I was just curious.

Cool

Andy

I would love to see your car, if you ever got this fitted (preferably from a safe distance )
