No mods needed.Make sure that its set up correctely with a bottle warmer and your all set...You need to fill out a card when you refill the puppy...They wont sell it to you with out it...Use premium gas when using the system..I dont recomend this on automatics.The trany is pretty weak as is...NOt designed to hold that much power at a burst....My opinion....
In theory NOS won't wear the engine down any faster than a ver, very mild forced induction system. You see, all NOS does is add more air, and more fuel into the combustion chamber to give you more horsepower. A turbo or supercharger does the same thing. It really doesn't come down to what you add to the engine that promotes engine life. It's your right foot. I'm building a direct port 100 shot wet set-up to the VR6 just for giggles, and when correctly built, can deliver HP with very, very little if any decrease in engine life. (no shorter life than adding a turbo or supercharger). NOS is actually safe and dependable...it's all the idiots that don't know how to build the system and run thier engines lean and melt pistons that give it a bad rap.
Agree,I had a fogger Nozzle set up on my 16v,knock on wood never had a problem and it was a 75 hp set up...I did a compression test on it just for fun and was all with in specs after a year of juicing it up....lol
I'm purely not interested at all in putting nitrous oxide in my passat, but i am curious as to how much a bottle would cost, and how many shots it will last for.
Hmmm, having read the posts thus far, it appears that only a couple of people have installed a bottle in their passats, I'm sorry if this is redundant, but how many have done this with their Passat VR6's? I am going to install NOS into my 2.0L 8v Rabbit, probably a 50 shot, but then that car is only a weekend driver at best, the B3 we drive daily. Is this true that NOS can used regularly? What kind of extra maintenance is required? Any Passat running NOS I think would be cool, I have these visions of my wife spanking some kid & his mustang while driving my son to basketball practice, hehe...
A new kit with a 10lb bottle ( stage one) will cost $499 - $650 and you still have to install it. The smaller bottles cost just as much as the big ones.
The purpose of a sneak and peak bottle it to conceal it so no one knows that you are squirting them..Theta way the price is the same and its way smaller...The juice system is still cheaper then adding a turbo by far....
