You need to vacuum your trunk and there's a stray leaf on your trunk opening. Looks like a Eucalyptus.

Nice NOS bottle though. Don't even start with how dirty your car is. I can overwhelm anyone on this board with filth. 20" of snow Monday and it's been melting ever since!

Good to hear you got the NOS tank in!!!! Did you snap some pictures during the install? Did you guys have a chance at putting in the plugs? I don't want to race you anymore!

Unfortunately we forgot to take pics of the install, but it was a very simple process. As for the plugs, i need to return them to get an even colder plug to justify not being able to retard the timing.

come on you can race me, you'll get me beat in first cause i got NO traction, even when i punch it in second.

So was the NOS worth it. Is it good for a daily driver.

I know it is a lot faster to 60, but how about the traction and everything else.

Give me the pros and cons.

I am thinking of getting it too.

How much was it by the way.


please
thank you

it was definately worth it. It's good for a daily driver if you don't use it much, like at the track or at the street races only. It's alot more maintenance then you think, like you have to get a bottle warmer or find ways to keep it warm for you to use it. I put it under the front passenger seat heater for about an hour.

As for traction, i'm on a very old set of stock tires right now, and it spins all through first and half of second. I'm ordering slicks probally today though. And i'm trying to find something real sticky for my 18" C2's. So once those are on i think traction will be a whole lot better. I shot a quick lil clip last night and once i can find somewhere to send it to you'll kinda get an idea of what it's like.
