This is the perfect kit to have if you want an inexpensive nitrous system and if you want to use it in more than one vehicle.
If you are ready for nitrous but do not want to let the world know these are the kits for you. Also these kits are great for beginners to the world of nitrous.
I had a buddy with a fit who had a nitrous backfire in his Honda Fit and it shattered the plastic intake manifold. It also blew his aftermarket cone filter up like a puffer-fish.

I didn't know nitrous needed so few parts. I always thought it involved tons of wires, fuel matching, and ECM tuning to deal with the increased loads/pressures. (and in some cases forged internals) This is cool!
Portable system leads to:
* Rental car fun * ( - although I advise against it)
It's actually be done several times, search Youtube.

Nitrous in-a-bag (Pro Street Heat) The Pro Street Heat was designed to be the simplest nitrous system on the market to use and install. This is a "dry system" injecting only nitrous into the motor. It works by "tricking" the computer back into the cold start mode. In cold start mode, the computer injects more fuel into the motor just like a carburetor does when the choke is on. Other sensors detect the oxygen rich air and adjust the fuel mixture and timing to compensate for this extra income of oxygen making this system near fool proof on performance. This kit comes with jetting from small, medium, large, extra large, and kickin ass. This will give you approximately 20 to 100 HP on your motor. Installation on this kit takes 10 minutes to complete and the kit can easily be place onto other vehicles in the same amount of time. This kit is designed to work on any EFI (fuel injected) vehicle.
This doesn't make sense to me. I thought cars are "open loop" on a cold start, and the computer ignores all the signals from the sensors. Could somebody explain this better to me?

That's a good question. I guess I don't know how the system is supposed to "trick" the car into doing anything. It's just a nozzle that sprays nitrous at the push of a button.
My kit doesn't look like it is missing anything though. I'm guessing that the part that they sell to trick the computer is an extra unit.
There is nothing that suggests it would "trick" any computers there too. Maybe Compucar is suggesting that injecting nitrous is what "tricks" the computer. I don't know.
