Hi All :)

I run twin 15 lb Nitrous bottles (total of 30 lbs of liquid Nitrous available at all times)

Each year I strip and rebuild them and then fill and polish them before mounting them back in the car....

Here are some pictures of one (other is identical)

Plus final picture is them mounted in car....


Bottle rebuilt/filled and polished....

Bottle valve - Red part is an SPRV = Safe Pressure Release Valve.... Large black silver part is a Nitrous Pressure Transducer

Two outlets on back of valve...silver on left is OUT to engine.....black on right rear = balance pipe outlet to second bottle.

Hi Sean :)

I have enough trouble keeping the outside clean as a daily driver....little time left for the inside :)

Unless you are volounteering ?

All the best Brett :)

Hi Paul :)

Generally speaking Nitrous is ONLY used in straight lines :)

All the best Brett :)

Whether you want to go around a corner or not, I'd expect the car to only go in a straight line with a nitrous shot! :lol:

Hi Paul :)

You would probably be put off by the noise at the lights lol....

Its VERY loud....

It can also step sideways if I give it a lot of power from a standing start, so I rarely do it...

All the best Brett :)
