No, not in the key of C. An H is likely involved though ...

assuming this means that NOS will only squirt when throttle is fully open? as opposed to having it on a thumb switch?

That's it.. Safer that way it lowers the chance of anything going wrong

Any thoughts on how this might work with LPG? I know LPG burns a little hotter, but is way cleaner than petrol. Or would the advice be, don't run NOS while running LPG?

At a guess you could... But I guess it seams to cancel its self out, why have LPG if you looking at high power unless you already have it installed??

Ok Danni22, thanks for that info. So would it be fair to say if I only used NOS while running petrol I wouldn't need a remap? Actually, I only use LPG if I'm being economical and NOS is not economical, therefore I should never use the 2 together.

IIRC there's also a good description/video on there describing wet/dry uses/differences on there somewhere. (Strictly beginner's)
