10lb Bottle, 35 Shot.. How long will it last?

Wiring with a TPS WOT switch. How many WOT passes would a 35 shot, 10 pound bottle last.. about..?


And... How much does Nitrous usually run? Per lb?

the rule of thumb is 1lb in 10 sec for every 100hp

50hp will use 1/2 pound in 10 seconds
200hp will use 2 pounds in 10 seconds

Nitrous refill rates will vary but $4-5 per pound seems about average

If you stick with a 35 shot, you can run the bottle down farther. But I still wouldn't go past leaving at least 2-3 lbs. in the bottle. I run a 140 shot and only expect 2 runs before the preformance starts to fall off. I sometimes make a 3rd run, but know the et will be slightly worse.

Edit: bought my system from some guy named Ray at Nitrous Outlet. LOL I'm very happy with the results.

Does such a small shot such as a 35 require any timing or plug/gap adjustments?

Maybe not, but don't go by me. You never did mention what car and motor this is for.
