ya he needs two 20lb bottles for one "10 sec" race lmao

with the shot im running I start to lose pressure after about 6 passes. I have been doing mostly highway pulls for tuning, but it didnt last as long as I wanted. what I really want is one of these http://www.nanonitrous.com/products/universal.html

an extra bottle wouldnt hurt me any either

Its only cheating if you hide it. Even then its not cheating, you do whatever you have to to win ....right?

I dont think its cheating, but at the same time i do... Heres my reasoning.. I wanna see what the engine can do N/A, heads up race motor to motor.. thats where it comes down to whos better than who. In a nitrous to nitrous race then its fine, but i think if one car doesnt have nitrous the other shouldnt be allowed to use it because thats like paying a major league baseball pitcher to play on your high school team.

Nitrous has been ok in pro drag for 50 years and its been around in sports cars longer than that. Its a mod just like any other. It makes the engine burn fuel faster and ups the engines internal combustionas a Turbo or SC would.

u guys ever watch pinks? they run nitrous to motor all the time, and ive seen motor guys come out on top alot. it all comes down to power, no matter how you do it. Nitrous isnt some awesome sauce that gives you an advantage over any NA motor. There are plenty of guys with built NA motors that would rip me a new one while spraying.
