Just wondering who is running NOS on the street.
Was thinking of a hidden fogger set up. The idea is to make my drives to work a little more fun, nothing more.
I know of 2 cars running a small kit in Brissie Nth. 1 in a ce turbo lancer - its a piece of sxxt but goes well and another with a vx supercharged - it looks good and goes hard.
Associate with the lancer has been done and it cost him his license for 1year and car taken for a few months.
The advantages DONT outweigh the cost or cost of being caught. Better off with a few bolt on mods.
Go buy an old turbo starlet. Look like a granny's car but can smoke them up at 100 with a few mods and a big turbo.
NOS is 80's street attire.
i know what you mean, i have always had nice fast cars, but now have a family, so was after cheap thrills
RX-4 Turbo
RX-4 PP
RX-7 Turbo S6
S4 Audi twin turbo
S6 Audi twin turbo
R33 Skyline on 26lb
--->
Camry :(
I guess for a cheap thrill all you have left when having a family is a playstation! 
Depends what car and engine? How much power are you making now?
Unless you've already done all the other bolt on stuff or even a built engine i can't see it being worth it. I know a few blokes who ran it on WRX's years ago but F&F1 had just dropped
Edit: i just read you have a camry. I honestly think it'd be a massive waste of money for very little reward. Auto XR6T would be a perfect car for it. It's just a luxury taxi but 2-3k later and you have an 11second taxi. They turn the tyres well 
have been thinking of the nissan stagea and XR6 but manual. Going to get back in the house market in the next 6 months, so i guess something better will have to wait until then.
Hah I thought you meant inhaling it on the way to work to make the commute a little more fun!
That's what I'd do
I think stageas are getting a bit long in the tooth? I personally think once a car hits 10 years old, its not worth the hassle.
Ford on the other hand loose most of their value and if you get a late model BF/BF2 you'll have a bulletproof engine. The manuals really struggle to get off the line and the factory clutch is rubbish but i put an AP Racing clutch in and it was great with 350rwkw and loads of torque. I sold it with the intention to get into a GT. How life changes
How about looking at getting into racing on the race track and leave the road to driving sensible. Sick to death of people hooning on the roads and putting my family in harms way. Hate to be the kill joy but when you say you want to make drives to work a little more fun I take it the wrong way. But like I said why not get into some form of racing even if it's karts.
Oh my
Did we just have Camry and NOS in the same thread?
NOS is a consideration AFTER the accepted stages of mods being
- breathing, in and out. ie filter and exhaust
- then maybe moderate head work and a strong bottom end
- then some proper head work and silly gearbox and diff
thennnnnnn NOS maybe/
You don't just bung a 50Hp NOS kit on a bog stock car. AT LEAST do the filter and exhaust. Then you could stick NOS on but don't expect it to last
If you are going to mess with nitrous-pick a bulletproof drivetrain to start with!
Back when I played with modded V6 Capri's, one of our mob ran a 1600cc Capri with twin 40mm dellorto carbies, modified 1 tonner clutch, big cam, big valves and assorted other go fast bits.
He used to go through around 1 x cylinder head gasket per bottle of gas - and a clutch every 3 or 4 bottles.
Surprisingly though - the standard OEM rear axle never gave trouble, even though it was welded solid.
But jeez did it go like the clappers!!
Accelleration from 100km/h to 100mph was quicker than a certain V6 Capri running triple webbers and home brew fuel.
but at least I had the pleasure of towing the 4 pot back home afterwards

Set it up so in case of emergency it falls out of the roof...
Now there is a plan

I have respect for what you are saying though

Thanks for the tips. 50-70hp should be ok on standard motor as long as you use slightly colder plugs and reduce the plug gap. Ensure it stays on the richer side of a/f ratio.
I would make a window kit from jaycar so it only activates full wide open throttle between 2500-6000rpm. Any more than a 70 shot then start looking at exhaust, more fuel and forged pistons etc.

Yep gas greed is exactly the same as boost greed. Been there, but been reasonably lucky. Plan would be to just have a smallish shot and leave it at that tune.
Do TRD offer a supercharger or is there tuning software available for your model? Maybe a better alternative to gas.
Years ago i went for a spin in a blown TRD Aurion. It wasn't a bad car, fast and fun for a non performance car. I know its hard to go from a fast and fun car into a slow and boring car but surely making a slow car a little less slow isn't worth the money?
Yep TRD do a blower, but there is nothing I like about the car, (other than the fact it gets me out on the water) so don't want to pump money into it.
looks like ill just wait till after i buy a house then look for something 'nice' again.
all of your other cars could handle & stop, i wouldnt be throwing any more power at a camry. You're right 70hp wont turn the wheels just give the tinkle of drivetrain, oil & money all over the road.
Welcome to life, ordinary joe's cant have it all so get an evo 
Plenty of family compatible cars out there to give more grin... evo, xr6t/g6et, wrx, golf, focus turbo, hsv's, another audi. Or do what I have... cheap reliable daily & weekend/track rx7 as when you start f***ing with it something will break then you cant get to work & are carpooling with soccer mums.
You're thinking of running NOS in a Camry??? ...I'm sorry but that's possibly one of the silliest things I've heard here.
Just ditch the camry and buy another family friendly car that is either already relatively fast or has a power-train that is responsive to modification. You're going to achieve absolutely nothing by putting NOS in gutless motor attached to a chassis designed for comfort and price, not handling.
....or you know, don't drive like a dick on the roads.

Why not? Mythbusters did it just last week. Looked easy as!
Though they only wanted to boost it long enough to slam it into a wall flat out... I guess workmanship and durability weren't really factors

I think you should go for it, but if you want it to last you probably should set it up right with another injector spraying more fuel at the same time or put something inline with the AFM so it tricks the ECU into putting more fuel in.
As per the suggestions of getting a track car, it doesn't kill the need to have something enjoyable on the street.

I was close to buying a super kart for that reason. But looking at buying a property, that will have to wait.
NOS is exactly the same as having a turbo and does the same thing... More fuel and more air (oxy)
A small shot won't be a big deal. Everyone seems to be caught up in the idea of nitrous used in movies like F&F. Just like when they change into 11th gear in a race.
I didn't start the thread to discuss whether the average Joe should have 100kw or 400. Anyone with a full license can go down to ford or Holden and buy a 300kw car. I was in one last week with a guy who couldn't drive the best. Now that's a worry. Oh the R8 Axel tramped like it didn't have IRS so I don't think you can say it's designed for the power.

Thanks for the input. I had a few ideas like a malpassi fuel reg. Or running a wet system through a fogger nozzle.
I'm thinking now to hold off and get back into a nicer car in a few months.
