I didn't go into buying this car without researching. Going off what stillen claims and other stillen owners they claim around 400 hp I didn;t think it would be that hard to get it around 450+ rwhp. The price I paid for this car is the same I could have got a stock 350z so I look at this system as a bonus.
Just so you get your facts right here is a quote from Wikipedia.
"Nitrous is an often used as an abbreviation for the nitrous oxide, also referred to as NOS. The term NOS is derived from the initials of the company name Nitrous Oxide Systems, one of the pioneering companies in the development of nitrous oxide injection systems for automotive performance use."
N20 is used in the medical field.
And just for kicks. My old Z started with a 75 wet shot. Then Procharged, Then Turbonectics ,And the the powerlab. All on the same stock block. And Sold it as a stock Z. It's ALL IN THE TUNE.........

NOS would be nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur....
so the wikipedia "fact" is just knowledge that some person wrote on there and nobody else cares to change. An abbreviation means a shortening of a word. NOS isn't a shortened version of nitrous oxide.
and you're right, it's in the tune!
just busting your *****
wikipedia? you do know that's not a factual source right? NOS has never and will never be a formal abbreviation to nitrous oxide. NOS is an abbreviation to the company Nitrous Oxide Systems. Before that company was around there was no slang "nos" in our vocab. Nitrous is the short version of Nitrous Oxide.

Good luck

NOS = Brand
N2O or Nitrous Oxide is the gas used by the company NOS and others..
alot of people call it NOS because they are ignorant.. its just like every black gun is a 9mm Glock to ignorant people.. doesn't mean its right

it's one of my biggest pet peeves since i hear it all the time. this town is full of 16 second 1/4 mile civic racers that all have nitrous systems installed on their cars but haven't used it yet "because they haven't gotten it tuned" (for the past 3 years). They still use the nitrous purge all the time around town though
Is their car primer gray for those three years because they're "gonna get it painted when their kit comes in next week" too? (I love that one)

Yeah, but i bet they are actually working on their cars. We're talking about the young kids that primner their Honduh then talk of how it's gonna get a/b/c done to it. Then three years later nothing has been done!
