How long does the bottle last?

Stock 2002 Camaro SS.

Thinking of running a 100 shot.

This is what stops me:

1) Know anywhere to get Nitrous bottles filled near me? Chesapeake Virginia, here in the 757 Hampton Roads area.

2) How long does it last? Suppose I have a 10lb bottle. I race on the highway all the time. What will that last me, three quick little bursts?

Rule of thumb on nitrous use: 1lb/100hp/10 seconds. You can't completely empty the bottle and maintain adequate nitrous pressure so a 10lb bottle will last for maybe 80-90sec of WOT with a 100hp shot.

What Rich said...but you need a heater too to get that much out of it.
