    Any ideas on the condition of the motor before they chucked the gas on? I remember reading up on nos systems and how to choose the shot.

    A 50hp wet shot is fairly reasonable. The problem with nitrous is that it increases the burn rate so you need to retard the timing to suit as well as using a slightly colder plug. Best way is to keep it the nitrous/fuel mix nice and rich as helps to keep the combustion process under control.

    From memory NOS recommend to retard the timing 2 degrees for every 50hp nitrous used, this however is just a tad difficult unless you happen to be able to alter the tune yourself.
