Bigred you will have a lot better results with a real sytem. The Boondockers kit i hear is most relaible. And will give way more power. Check there site out at BooNdocKeRsss Its a little pricey though

if your talking about that stuff that is less than 5 dollars a bottle and you dump into your gas tank then your wasting your time and money. That stuff is crap in bottle.

nitrous (no2) is a gas, gasoline is a liquid. ya cant really mix them. Any kinda fuel additive is a waste of money unless its oil for your premix two stroke.

I Agree with the last 2 posts
The Nitrous additive has a small amount of Nitromethane in it . It will add a few points of octane to your fuel . but the points of Octane are as follows 00.8
Not 8.0 . If you want to go fast it cost money $$$$$ if it only cost 5 or 6 bucks everyone would be fast and then you would have to spend more money to be faster SEE the pattern MORE MONEY === MORE FUN==== MORE SCARS===== MORE STORIES for when you get old and cant ride anymore

Why are you guys so negative? It's a fact that we have Nitro-blended and oxygenated fuel additives that do help performance when properly jetted. The guy wants too try a $10 bottle of additive. If he had $600+ laying around maybe he would have already got a nitrous set-up.
