i've never had any mechanical issue with mine, and i've ran a fair old amount of gas through it.

you could run any jets safely up to 50bhp pal, if you want to go past that you can but it isn't advised.
a 50bhp shot will be a number 100 jet for the nitrous and a number 50jet for the fuel.

for a 25bhp shot you run a number 50 jet in the nitrous and a number 25 in the fuel.

and so on....

if you want to be technical, you can say on a 50bhp shot that your 'runnin a 100 shot of naws' to be super cool infront of everyone

just make sure the floor doesn't fall out.

What is the "kick" like when you use it? Does it throw you back in your seat when on 50 / 75 shot?

on a 25bhp shot, its nothing great. on a 50bhp shot it puts you in the seat but the best bit is it never seems to stop pulling when on nitrous. its nothing like when you watch the fast and the furios though!

to give an example of what its like in performance,

there's a local private road to me that has a certain point where people see what the car will achieve at this certain point, its going up a very long hill (all private of course) off nitrous i get 120mph flat out, can't get anymore than that and i usually hit that speed way before that point but it just can't seem to pull past it. My friends civic type r gets 115mph my friends e36 bmw m3 gets 130mph. saxo vtr's tend to get about 100mph max. My friends R33 GTS skyline gets 130mph on a good day.

when i use nitrous on a 50bhp shot i get 135mph. 15mph may not sound much but i consider it a hell of a lot considering every mod i did to my car gave it 5mph max!

i ran 25bhp on my 106 gti was ok nothing much
soon as i put a 50 set in i loved it feels just like a turbo i say not as much tho
snaped a shaft on 50 but that was due to a bumpy road(private road)
running approx 185ish on spray

will need an uprated clutch if your looking at 50shot, its kick is enough to make standard clutch slip, so 25 will be best to start

I wouldn't buy a second hand kit, on the WON site theres a fair few horror stories. If any of the solenoids fail and you only inject Nos or over inject Nos - bye bye conrods.
