N.O.S. And Reliability ??

How much wear do you think our engines would take if N.O.S. was added ? Are our engines and trannys strong enough to hold up or will they quickly deteriorate ?

Easily another 150 as long as you have a proper installation and if it does not go lean, because as soon as she goes lean you can say . If it blows make sure to remove all traces of NOS installation and mounting when you return it for waranty. This also means make sure to do you installation so there is no traces when you remove it. Go too much and theres going to be no way to cover you put NOS on it.

Doesn't seem like a great idea for a Mercedes-Benz, I mean they are already fast enough...

ORLY?

Members on MBW have successfully sprayed their cars. I personally would never do it to a Benz (unless I was filthy rich), but do consult someone knowledgeable about it.

You might have to start low, a 75 shot and then 100 and maybe no higher than that. Oh, and run a wet kit.

To some fast is never fast enough. Why else would the cars be faster each year?

Nitrous oxide does not sound good for an expensive late model E55. Pulleys chipping and free-flowing exhaust system with resonator amputations would be the way to go.

Virus is the best and he is Canadian. Read his postings and consult as necessary.

an E55 can take it, but if you wanna do it, please do your homework and ask people that have done it before so that you can cover all your bases
