Why do you ask? If you need to know more you can either pm Josh or speak directly to JBS who fitted the kit to his car.
I've been in Josh's old Polo fitted with NOS, it was fun...need I say more? hee hee!

IIRC the increase in the output was about 37 bhp so it is quite some gain in power, however with all good things there are some downsides...the bottle will only last about 10-15 minutes so you would need to use it sparingly...

Instead of it being on button release, my mate has it on a rev timer whereby it kicks in at 5500rpm on his Honda Civic. The bottle lasts longer this way and it also gives it a nice kick.

If you are interested in NOS, have a butchers at this...

Not a Polo GTI but I think you'll get the general picture...and the kit they install are the same as the ones JBS have...
