Was just wondering if anyone has used a nitrous oxide kit on the x16xe engine? and what there results and opinions wree on it?

Can it work well without causing damage to the engine?

Worth The Money??

thanks

I "think" a few people have done or experience of it in the past on here.

Best people to ask would be Wizard of Nos

No it didnt!!
To be honest I thought it was boring. Its not like fast and furious where you press a button and it puts you back in your seat!
In comparison at the time I had a V6 vectra and it basically kept up with that through the acceleration but once passed that it loses its guts
Ideally run up to 50bhp jets without a progressive controller but once passed that its recommended you get one.
Mine was direct port too which i beleive is the better set up
It was on the car about 4 years and nothing broke but tbh it wasnt really used in the 2nd two years of that
Also I remember it used to cost £20 to fill the bottle and it only lasted about 20 min full pelt so worth bearing in mind its not cheap to run......that was the bigger bottle too
Its good fun but there are better gains out there for the money imo
