Default Nitrous on a UK S2000?

I have a Nitrous Express kit sitting in my garage waiting to go on my project CRX, however I was thinking it would be nice to hook it up to the s2000 Its a wet system which delivers an 80 shot. I may buy a 30HP, & 50HP jet to begin with.

A friend had a simular kit running on a VW g60 Corrado for a while, installation seemed a doddle and he had no problems with reliability.

Has anyone used NOS on a s2000? What were the results?

Please post your comments

I was close to doing this as it would be nice to use in "emergency situations" (ie a new M3 tries it on etc... )

I just thought id want to use it all the time and opted for the S/C

But if its there, get it on there!

I have tried with NX kit I found the fuel pump to be under rated, this meant the pump could not supply both the rail and the Nos without loss of pressure hence loss of power.

Upgrade the pump and it should be fine, I have not got that far yet.

I managed to snap a conrod ouch !!!

Forgive my ignorance but how is the fuel supply altered when fitting NOS??
Do you have to change/fit an adjustable FPR? I thought NOS was a plug and pray installation

I'd have thought more fuel is required to burn with the NOS to maintain the required mixture!
