Honestly, I think it's a stupid idea for several reasons.

Nitrous Oxide isn't an explosive super-fuel. It adds extra oxygen, and that's it. In order to get more power, you also need to add extra fuel. If you don't add extra fuel, your mixture goes extremely lean.

I would assume he has EFI, because the sensors would detect extra oxygen when he hit the button, and automatically add more fuel. A normal carburetor has no way of adjusting and adding extra fuel.

Also, I think a 16gram system is just a waste anyways. Generally, you need more grunt and low-end power, but the nitrous is only safe at high RPMs. How often do you need more top-end power on a ute? For a whopping six seconds? Drag racing your buddies, or to clear that 30ft tabletop?

His was a carbed 250 motor. He said he upped the jetting by 2 jets when he put it on.

The guy only needed it because he would go mudding and start to bog down so he would just hit the button and instant 1-3 hp to get the RMPs up.
