Hi
new to this anybody got a car with NOS? NOS can PRODUCE MORE OXYGEN THAN AIR!!! lOOK OUT FOR THIS A Mitsubishi 3000GT.

WRONG! Nitrous doesnt produce more oxygen. Nitrous systems just utilised the higer amount of oxygen found in N20 than the surrounding air particles. Read on.....
........When injected in a vaporous state to the intake air of an internal combustion engine, the resultant heat of compression (on the compression stroke of the engine) breaks down the nitrous oxide compound into inert nitrogen and free oxygen available to support the combustion of extra fuel. This means more fuel can be burned than air alone would support. Burning more fuel releases more heat, which creates more expansion of the working fluid (mostly nitrogen) in the cylinder for more pressure on the piston. The result is more power.
n a petrol engine, the intake air is proportionally mixed with fuel for an air/fuel ratio of approximately 14.7:1, by weight. The ratio is a little richer for maximum power, and slightly leaner for peak economy. Consequently, if nitrous oxide is introduced into the intake air stream, a proportional amount of fuel must also be added to prevent leaning out the mixture. More fuel and the oxygen to burn it — bingo, more power. How much power can be generated depends on how much nitrous oxide (and extra fuel) is injected, but gains of 50 to 150 horsepower are common. Much higher gains are possible if the engine is built to withstand it.
Just for the record too NOS is a company name "NITROUS OXIDE SYSTEMS" not what the gas is called
I will also advise you to search the forums before posting as there are countless nitrous threads and id refraim from making pretty much pointless threads.
here are the results for nitrous
