Everyone knows that if you want to squeeze more power from you engine is to add a turbo or two. There is another way to achieve more hp with Nos kits also, but the effect will last just until the pressurized storage tank goes empty.
Made popular through the first Fast and Furious movie, the nitrous oxide (Nos / N2O / Nitro) injection is the simplest way to provide a significant power boost to a gasoline engine.
The principle is simple - when N2O is heated at about 300°C (570 F), it will split into oxygen and nitrogen, so feeding such fuel to a combustion engine will provide it more oxygen, therefore more fuel to burn. Another benefit is that when the nitrous oxide evaporates, it absorbs heat and keeps the engine at a normal temperature during the hard work.
This guide on Toyota Celica Online gives a thoroughly explained step by step tutorial on how to install such a system on a ’94-’99 model Toyota Celica GT.
