As I said in a topic what will you choose NOS or NX system.
I am asking you because I am thinking about instaling of of them.
In Poland we think that wet NX system is best from offered in our country.
What do you think about that ?

Hang on, your driving a Toledao right? as far i know they don't face turbos and as far as i know you need a turbo if you want to use NOS. I could be totally wrong though, but it's something you should check.

Turbo and Nitro (both NOS and NX) are two diffrent things. One do not need other to work.

But thank you for your help.

NOS is short for 'Nitrous Oxide Systems' and NX is short for 'Nitrous Express'. Both are companies that sell nitrous systems for automotive applications.

Nitrous can be added to any vehicle (not sure about diesel applications?) whether they be forced induction (turbo/super-charged) or normally aspirated.

In answer to the first question, not really sure. All I know is that if using in a forced induction application, a wet system is usually safer to avoid a lean situation.

Thank you for your answer - I know both of these systems.
I would like to know which one of them is used in England more often.

I don't think many (if any) people on this board have used nitrous. You might try posting on vwvortex (http://www.vwvortex.com) to get some better info, quite a lot of the guys there seem to be using nitrous successfully.

what you don't want is rubber pipes which I think is what one of those companies use.

Actually,if you read mags such as Revs, you'll find that most people in the UK use NOS.

Thanks for the info on NOS and NX, very informative. Always good to learn something new.
