Default How much HP can NOS add?

I know its a broad question with the ability to change your NOS shot but a avg. shot of a street car like 75 or so? If you only know what your HP gain is from your shot tell me how big of a shot and how much HP u gained. Thanks.

75 shot = 75 flywheel horsepower... I think that solves it.

75 Hp to the flywheel? How much would that 75 HP actually give you to the wheels?

NOS is a brand, not a general name for Nitrous.

NOS is a brand, not a general name for Nitrous.
I know NOS is a brand name. But I used NOS because NOS stands for Nitrous Oxide Sytem and thats why I used the word NOS because no matter what brand name of nitrous you have its a nitrous system period.
