NOS if used correctly is normally the most cost effective upgrade you can do. Horsepower for dollar. with all the good kits out there aps/chiptorque/nizpro why would you need NOS also, obviously he had it just for wank factor. APS cars have run nos C&V record 10.98second pass used nos. Steve at Redcliff Dyno has used NOS if used correctly it is effective. I am unsure on this, but is the C&V car street driven, I know they retuned the sh*t out of the phase 3 kit to get to 10.98, as if any daily driven xr6t is ever gonna get that fast. A mate of mine put NOS on his EL XR8 and I do agree NOS is a great value for money mod, but it requires expert installation and careful use or you can kiss your motor goodbye.Its perfect for the drag strip, but why you would ever need it on the street. It's illegal in QLD anyway, doesnt stop people though. True most road cards don't run 26x8 inch mickey thompson race slicks. NOS as you said is good for the track and I agree that's the only place to have your ten seconds of fun as for street use it's no good having a car you can only enjoy ten seconds at a time on the road.

Steve at Redcliff Dyno has used NOS if used correctly it is effective.Im 99.9% sure that that's wrong Have it from a reliable sourceI recall the C&V car had a very high state of tune....I believe it included running higher boost and high octane racing fuel, and NO cat converter? BUT I do NOT recollect any mention of NOS.
