And prepare to die in a huge ball of flames and molten metal when someone drives into the back of you. Good luck

Ok, how much does it cost to supply and fit, and how much power does it give you? Also does it totally naff your engine up?

you can get a simple NOS kit for about £500 but I would expect fitting costs to be at least that plus a decent sized bottle of NOS (say 20lb) would be another £200 - then you should really have a NOS bottle 'warmer' to keep it at the ideal temp (86 fahrenheit). All in all I would say allow £1500 fitted and ready to go. Not sure what it would do to a Scooby engine but I wouldn't like to find out so good luck finding someone with first hand experience! PS If you're adding NOS for god sake uprate your brakes to 6 pots (c£1k) and allow a further £5k for the extra insurance!!!

On a standard 2.0-3.0 turbo, the 'average' increase (as quoted by Wizard of Nos) is would be approx 120bhp...

If this is true then....

increase in bhp is down to the injectors you use - ususally come with 2 but you can buy more - with 2 I think the standard bhp increase is about 100!

get yourself a nice intercooler, and plenty of cooling products for the engine as the bugger will overheat, the engine bay tempretures increase by a massive amount when using nos, you'd be suprised, a guy with a GTA VII on the mlr used it for 6 months and then bang went the engine and turbo,

but dont let that put you off
