You spend another £40 getting it filled up lol
Would it work out cheaper in long run to get some proper performance mods that dont need topping up?

Adam, please explain to me what "Propper Performance Mods" you could possibly fit to the Jag to increase the performance by 200 BHP ???? Nitrous is the cheapest form of additional BHP in terms of power per pound. Yes it runs out but so does your fuel tank

Also, if you listen to the clip, Little Mr Hammond says they are going to "Cheat" and fit NOS The Jag is also a V12 - Proper performace mods could be a set of TB's, pair of turbos or a supercharger - or all 3 You could also add some race fuel - summut like "Cool Blue" Works in a very similar way to NOS in the way it has O2 in it - advance the timing 10 deg or so, increase the fueling, and if you did the turbo conversion, you should see a 30-40% gain in power

I think we shud use a normal engine as an example.
2.0 Ford Zetec.
Budget 2000 pounds
Normal mods=Cams(200 inc trade in)chip(400)Zorst(700 inc decat and manifold)BMC(250)skim head(100)Plugs,leads and lighten the flywheel(350)
Thats gonna see u an extra 30-40BHP i think The flywheel i put there cos its the only other cheap mod i cud think of, no more power but spins up easier
Or you could get NOS
50 shot=600 pound
Refill 28 times adn uve blown 2k to get an extra 50BHP every now and then.

Jag V8 engines and gearboxes are seriously overengineered, they can happily take really excessive amounts of abuse, more so than Porsche engines, which are, or used to be, based on ancient aircooled Volkswagen engines. I think Nos is awesome. If you were a dentist, you'd get it all for free as well.
