task 5

NOS

NOS (Nitrogen Oxide System) is a mechanism to mix N2O with fuel in combustion chamber (http://paultan.org). NOS can provide more oxygen for yields more power.

NOS become like a fever in Indonesia after “The Fast and The Furious” released in Indonesian cinemas. NOS become trend because it can provide much power instantly. But, NOS have a weakness too. NOS can be used only for several seconds or minutes depend on the quality and specification, and also the price is still expensive.

However, if people want to install NOS, they must be considered well. Because this will be like a useless if it installed in car when used only for daily activity. NOS is useful for race car to raise its performance.
