it isnt metered,it will enter the engine along with the air,remember this isnt an exact science and ive never used it on the road apart from testing,but,it works suprisingly well,i wouldnt recommend for a high performance race built engine,but for run of the mill factory stuff it does no harm and ive never had any adverse effects from using it.........i posted it more because i thought you guys would find it funny and im certainly not recommending you to run out and start buying it,but,as ive said,ive used this exact set-up many times and it does what it says on the box

if you like playing around with cars and are interested in the difference that things like NOS may make to your car then its a simple and very cheap way of having a bit of fun...but,if your a serious race engine builder,or your looking to permanently up the horsepower of your car then its a total waste of time!!haha...i dont use it on road cars,i use it on track cars,mainly because a few seconds of extra boost can make a lot of difference,plus,because kit is only around 8"long it is totally concealed from other drivers that may also be interested in the benefits it gives!

Sorry, I have zero interest in nitrous.
To me it is useless.
Prepay electric cards are annoying enough, let alone putting a mod on your car with a similar payment method.... who wants to fit a mod that you have to keep paying for to use over and over?!

Plus, I want power that I can use all the time, and at any time, not only when Ive paid out to have the bottle filled up....

Plus it sounds like something you are likely to see bolted onto a Saxo at your local McDonalds!

i totally agree,as i said,i only use it on track cars and for obvious reasons......if you want lots of horsepower,permanently and relatively cheaply,then find yourself a written off mercedes with a kompressor badge on the back,nick the supercharger cos they are pretty universal and with some simple plumbing and mounting work you will totally change your car(this i have also done)!
