@contradevian Posted June 22, 2011 Author Share Posted June 22, 2011 NO is leagal to be fitted to a road car just not in use, you have tp have it dissabled by a switch/valve that is not accessable from the cabbin of the vehicle when in use on a public road. I highly doubt it is running form of NOS and it would only be used when he wants the power as it can be quite expensive. I recon you are smelling oil and fuel. If he has a turbo the oil seal could be leaking and or a boot leak which will allow more fuel through the system. The car could have a lpg conversion or he is using a high ethonol mix of fuel why not ask him? Oh and IIRC they used NOS on spitfires to get more power from the merlin engines Thanks interesting. Took a picture! He is covering most of the interesting stuff, but you can see on the big "pot" things on the front of the engine just to his right. There are four of those. I assume this is a Golf GTI. I couldn't see a seperate cylinder but if one were fitted I'd assume it could go in the boot. It sounds very rough to me and he constantly has to fiddle with it. However I guess a lot of that is the exhaust. Can't say I've seen a lot of smoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
