nah, forget nos- go for a supercharger :twisted:
aparently sprintex do supercharger kits for it.

I like the ZS a lot- very good handling, and the most recent ones look awesome, with the fins just behind the front wheel arches. very sexual!

hmm, i imagine if it can cope with a supercharger that it could cope with a 50 shot. No idea how strong the internals are though, so dont take my word for it!
Could be damn fun though!

Sprintex blower kit from Oz is £3200+import duty, they claim 230bhp, which imo is a lot of money for 50bhp.

Ross's has 260bhp on a supercharger apparently, so i guess there's potential

50 Shot will be fine, anymore than 50 then progressive control is required.
