Hi.

I would think you could put 50 n2o into your 4x4, but it'll probably be best if you have it checked over first, just to make sure you're not gonna snap a rod etc...

I have no experience of NOx for road use, but the Cologne V6 in yours is as good as indestructible.It's been around for donkeys years and will virtually run without coolant as long as old is topped up.

Also, if you do bust it, a repair is quick and simple

hi, a couple of mates have had nos fitted to there cars, you should be able to get more info about how much extra bhp your engine can take. Prob from the manufacturer, or a company that fits nos i guess.
