i got my jets from there, the kit i bought also originated from there too, hes a good bloke and very knowledgable, ive got rid of my kit now though.

Thats the kit i had too, very easy to set up and use, but youll always want more to the point of destruction.....trust me, been there, done that.

theres no point skimping on a nos kit could lead to engine failure
use a ''WON'' WIZARDS OF NOS KIT excellent quality
Everyone who gets a different kit usually revert to the WON soleniods!

i disagree, the coldfusion kit is mint. Never had any problems with it and a fair few people use them, the wizards kit on the other hand had to have the solenoids rebuilt.....bugger that.

lve been using a wizard of nos kit for a number of years and cant praise them highly enough ive used nitrous products from other companies e.g. holley nos, cold fusion, nx dynotune and ozrace, none of the products from these other companys come close to noswizard for quality or aftersales support. You can pick up a good second hand kit cheap enough.

Used both wizards and coldfusion, had various problems/failures with both tbh... But then again had kits off both that have never give a problem.

If your using a standard kit and not going too wild, i would be hard pushed to pick between these two.

Aftersales service is absolutely top notch with either one!

If you're going to do it, do it properly. I have ditched the US kit I had and paid out to convert to WON products.

You will also see another high profile subaru with significant investment in WON after ditching their US made crap from a "reputable" manufacturer.

This nitrous stuff seems to be a win/win.
It cools the charge to sub zero temps and increases hp, what on earth could be better for a turbo scoob.
All for £600 ish from WON.

Anyone running this on a road car?

Youll find that most WON kits are used on road cars, turbos react best to nitrous because of the cooling effect, 50 bhp jets can produce up to 100bhp. lf you havent already done so take a look at the noswizard forum, l know of a member who clocked his cosworth at over 200mph. lve been wondering why subaru owners tend to go down the traditional route and fit decats large turbos etc ? A quality nitrous kit with a controller can give masses of power safely and cost a lot less the only problem is the on going cost of the n2o.

Have used on road cars in the past, but it's just too addictive, a 10lb bottle can be emptied in less than 2 minutes continuous use!

I always fill my own, but have seen refill outlets charging £7 per lb.....
=£70 per refill ..... No thanks!

I presume this is why most people dont bother with it for road use, plus you never have the bottle turned on when you most want it !!!
