N20 question

Im going to be buying a kit probably 125 shot. With a 10 lb bottle how many shots will I be able to get out of it assuming I will be doing freeway runs most of the time.

at 125HP you will probably get an average of 90-120 seconds of spray or less. Also I would NOT recomend spraying on a stock motor for more than 15 seconds at a time.

talking dragstrip runs, which in your case is prolly in the 12-13 sec range, your looking at prolly 4-5 passes. on my 100 shot the most i ever got was 5.

that 90-120 seconds is BS. using that formula youd get 7-10 passes. NOT gonna happen. ive got my 150s in now and i havent gone through a full bottle yet but im not expecting any more than 4 passes a bottle.

and TRIPINTAZ is right. i wouldnt use the spray anymore than 14-15 seconds at a time on ANY motor. its not so much the hurting the motor, but your N2O solinoid will freeze up (possibly get stuck open- NOT good) if continually used too long.

well i do get 7-10 passes on a 10# bottle @ 125HP shot ( 4-7 passes @ 175HP). about 90-120 seconds worth of spray@125 and 60-90 @ 175HP, granted the last 3 runs are not very strong. But I also OVERFILL MY bottle.
here is a little trick, Put your bottle in the freezer for a few hours( when empty) then go fill it up, you can usually get an xtra pound of NOS in there that way. Luckily my Engine Builder has a freezer and a few huge 100 lb tanks at my disposal


Then if you really wanna get a hard blast from the bottle throw it in the bathtub and turn on the hot water for 15 minutes the bottle temp should get to about 110-120 degrees, smack that in the car and go look for something to kill, hold on when you hit the switch cuz the NOS exits the bottle into the engien really fast at that pressure.
