A few people on another forum have used it and with good success.

However you must remember you need to know everything there is to know about Nitrous before you install it. Because one wrong move and BOOM.

Don't run more then a 30 shot to start out with.

Not many people running it and you shouldn't run more then 30-35 shot. The internals cannot handle it.

Well they have internals that can handle what it has and a little bit more.

However when you upgrade to Nitrous your in a whole different playing field.

I would seriously look into upgrade rods and pistons as well. Also run a wetshot.

I believe a few on Volvospeed were using a wet shot. I could be wrong though, but if my memory serves me right it was a wet shot.

I'm going to say at least $500 probably plus.

Because your going to want tuning for it. And your I wouldn't run more then a 35 shot unless you beef up your internals.

Laughin gas. WHooooo Just up the boost on the little turbine and add a mathanol injection kit to cool the charge instead of spraying. Upgrade the intercooler and injectors, find some sort of piggy back system to run more fuel pressure if needed and have a grand ol time.

I actually plan on running n2o with mine but only as an intercooler bar i already have a wet kit lying around so im just gonna covert to the intercooler bar but i wouldn't run n2o in the motor with stock internals or even a stock clutch

why? n2o is expensive, co2 is cheap and will cool the i/c more than enough.

+1 for everything that boostedbrick said.

I wouldnt waste 35 bucks throwing it into the wind though. If your gonnause nitrous, use nitrous.Dont spray it over the intercooler and waste it. If anything spray a 30-50 shot and put the purge behind the intercooler so it will spray on it. For everything else just up the boost. Im running 18psi on mine right now and pulls like a son of a bisquit. Thats a wagon too with no tune just a lot of work and a big *** turbo.

To fill my 10lb bottle (keggerator) it is $15, I doubt it would be any more for a 15lb bottle.
