2.0 out of 5 stars How to Install and Use Nitrous Oxide, May 5, 2000
By David Regenhardt (San Diego, California) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this book before I purchased a NOS system. I was hoping to have a clear idea of what I was about to get into. The book answered all of my questions about Nitrous itself and how it worked, but failed to answer most of my installation questions that pertained to my Super Powershot Plate System. There were no pictures or drawings of a QJet and plate system installed. Mine is the most basic system there is. There were, however, many pictures of the more advanced systems available. The author must have been interested in filling pages because I read many paragraphs over and over throughout the book. It started to become very annoying. It did include some interesting charts and results of before and after Nitrous installations. I told my local Corvette speed shop guy that I had ordered the book and he asked, "Why?" He found it useless. Overall, I found the book ok. I don't regret buying it, just read the manual that comes with the kit as well as this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book, Very Detailed., February 2, 2003
By mattv_ct "mattv_ct" (Meriden, CT USA) - See all my reviews
I was very impressed with this book. I like how the author stressed the safety of nitrous oxide --- when used correctly. This is not a step-by-step installation guide (THAT you should get from the manufacturer). It goes through nitrous systems and explains each part of it, and explains the physics and science behind its use. If you are a dedicated tuner and want more than the normal "plug this in here" approach and actually want to understand the system that you are working with then this is the book for you. Joe Pettitt also covers fuel systems, determining fuel system capabalities, and the options for increasing fuel delivery in addition to mechanical upgrades, ignition upgrades, and why they are important. I HIGHLY recommend this book.

2.0 out of 5 stars Don't bother with this book!, January 4, 2002
By R. Krause (Buffalo, NY United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
While knowledgable about high performance engines I am naive with respect to nitrous oxide use. This winter I will be installing a nitrous system on my supercharged '95 Camaro Z-28. The book was purchased to help me increase my general knowledge of automotive nitrous oxide systems.

Overall I was quite disappointed. The amount of information contained is fair, at best. The writing style is also lacking. Passive voice is used frequently and it is often hard to simply understand what the author is writing about, let alone gain useful information. The book does, however, contain some useful tidbits and engineering formulas. These are poorly explained though and I am not 100% confident that they are accurate.

I suggest you look elsewhere for a source of information on automotive use of nitrous oxide.
