I ran 50hp straight hit ontop of the 107hp normaly aspirated with a standard helical fresh built gearbox. You deffo need a cross pin diff.

Just make sure you get the mix correct and evenly distributed or you will melt a piston

I recon you could potentialy take a standard 50hp engine and have a progressive controlled 100hp dose of Nitrous and the engine would survive as long as it was set up well. For how long is a different matter EDIT** ignition would need retarding considerably though.

with the standard injection ECu the only real way to retard the ignition is to reposition the flyweell reluctor ring. Anything over 50hp needs special care and a progressive controller.

Nitrous is messy and you will eventualy damage something
