mate im pretty sure all it is like soda stream gas refills. im not expert but i think they give a tiny boost but you have to think if you got that stuff going in surely the mixture of air and fuel will be less causing it to lean out a bit and could potential do harm to your engine. dont think id be using it on my bike if i wanted it around for a while or wanted the engine to last

I have no intention of using it I just wanted to know if they for real.
They look pretty cool, so ya reckonthere just soda charger canisters?

they're nitrous oxide canisters AKA whippets (google it 
)
I think you'd have more fun huffing them than nuking your engine with em,
I think they would work, but without tuning skills they wouldn't be so good, and only like a 5 second burst, would probably go good if you dragged pocket bikes

Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas) is a high octane, high energy short time boost for more horsepower. More like Red Bull for your engine and what your dentist gives give you for pain relief(NOS not Red Bull). It increases horsepower and torque but also creates a higher combustion temperature and compression ratio maxima over a short time when activated. The flame propagation is not as evenly spread and creates a lot higher combustion temperature and combustion pressure as a normal fuel load would.Egetrol/Air. A normal aspirated ratio is about 14.2:1 atmospheric. NOS does not increase the aspirated ratio but in effect if your engine is not set up to accept NOS such as cooling system, pistons and cylinder head gasket and valves,your going to start melting internals.It works on a higher octane effect so to speak. To increase the aspiration ratio takes turbo or supercharging where you cram more fuel/air into a given space. To put it plainly the effect is shortlived with NOS. You may have been watching to many Mad Max movies. It will increase combustion pressure,combustion temperature throttle response, egower and combustion and it will have a detrimental effect if you engine is not built to handle it over a very short time. I am not going to describe on here what to do to your engine for modification for NOS as it will take a book. In effect if you run it on a standard engine then it will go BANG over a very short time. However GOOGLE it for effects and setups and make you own judgements. I was a mechanic and raced and worked on a very hot IT 490 when I used to ride enduro and a Yamaha Tenere for Class trail/enduro. Class 8 off-road race vehicles, specialise in Euro performance,turbo and supercharging and performance mods. All I can say is use it at your on peril on an un-modified motor. Don't go sooking to mummy bloke when it goes BANG. I do know what I am talking about.

i onced looked into it ages ago and had the understanding that nos( nitrous oxide system) was just another way of putting more air (denser air) into the cylinder, on a stock engine u wouldnt have the fuel delivery required to keep up with the amount of air in the cylinder to get a "perfect burn" which means u would be running really lean, also by cramming more air into the cylinder there would be a greater pressure/friction which equalls more heat and would melt ur standard piston.

The only way that you can get a more compressed air charge into the cylinder is to increase the atmospheric charge as I said with either turbo or supercharging. With NOS this has become a very common anomaly that NOS increases the fuel charge. It does as I said with a higher octane ratio. You then have to increase the air charge.NOS increases the octane ratio only. I used to race a MINI on avgas. Higher octane. It does not put more denser air into the cylinder. 14.2:1 ratio with an unmodified engine. You cannot get a denser aircharge unless it is introduced into the engine as I said with either turbo or supercharging. An Injection ratio or carby cycle standard does run leaner due to the fuel requiring more air to burn the ratio of fuel to air on the combustion cycle hence what I said in my post. You will burn and wreck the engine if it is not set up for it as my post. Hence higher temps.

Have a look at this site as it explains in detail NOS systems. Hope it helps ya.....

rubbish it most likely kill your bike than make it faster
only works on cars in 2 fast 2 furios

LOL umm nitrous oxide does send a boost out of your engine... higher revs will increse the speed at the time.
but yes in some cases it will destroy your motor.
but from what i have herd these are pointless...

the problem is its a dry system and not a wet NOS. if you have fuel injection its easier cause the engine management will compensate the NOS.
If you do enough research into some parts you can make up a wet system that uses two solenoids (one for NOS and one for fuel) then drill a hole in the carby manifold and squirt however much NOS/fuel mixture you are game to.
of course this does not address any heat or pressure issue, but only helping to not run your engine lean
