Tuned CLK (W209)
Nitrous

I` m seriously thinking to put a Nitrous Kit on my car.
I ` ll buy a NOS dry fogger system which provides between 40 and 60 hp
or a
Nitrous Exrpess Dry System which gives between 20-50 hp

What` s your opinion? Does it worth to put a Nitrous System on my 16valve CLK200K?
What am i suppose to watch out for?
Thank you,

a car that can't do the throttle reset.
blowers and nos, dont always mix well...be careful on the install.
dont get a dry system..its weak. if youre gonna do nos, do it right...wet or mixture, but not dry.

Rule number 1 : Do NOT run a dry kit on a forced induction car!

I have grown to trust N.O.S. brand kits over other brands. That is just from my personal experiences

if your cars forced induction, then water injection could be deemed sensible, as it limits hot spots. This is said to save pistons from melting and reduces pre-ignition- a big engine killer in nos fed engines & forced induction efforts.

for the price of a decent nos & water job, you could install low compression pistons and whack the boost up to silly silly pressure- giving huge power.
