Quick Question
I was just wondering if the Compucar Nitrous in a Bag kit was good. It says that it uses your cigarette lighter for electrical power and uses a plastic line to supply the nitrous from the bottle to the intake. Just wondering if it was worth the money.

RE: Quick Question
Don't even bother posting the website.
The last thing people need is exposure to half-assed products that shouldn't be on the market.
Draymer hit the nail directly on the head. You get what you pay for. You might save yourself a couple hundred bucks on the initial purchase, but the total price will be well over $3,500 after you buy a new shortblock because you cheaped out on a nitrous kit, which is already inexpensive to begin with...
Words of advice, since you are apparantly looking to save money and install nitrous as cheaply as possible, maybe you need to look at the whole picture and decide if modifications that will push the limits of your engine will be a good idea if you can't afford even a respectable nitrous kit.
No slams or jabs, but just general concern for your possibilities of pedalling a Huffy Bicycle in the future.

RE: Quick Question
I decided to go with a N.O.S kit. IN the process of installing it now. I took the advice and thought about it. Nitrous is not a place to go cheap. If your going to do it be ready to spend the money to do it right.
