"I live my life a quarter mile at a time"

This thread is just to fast and too furious for me a mere mortal.

isnt it wierd how he "fries his piston rings" and then when the police arrive, just jumps in the car and rags it in to the distance with no worries and no smoke? i want an engine like that!

some good points coming on here for those thinking of getting it, here's one more.

It's £58.75 or more to fill my bottle up! And it didn't last that long, so Carl you must have a BIG pocket

If you are only using the system for Anti-lag and the system is only operated at WOT then your N2O usage will depend entirely on the weight of your right foot.
Used in such a manner the system will only be activated for a second or so until the pressure switch detects boost and shuts it off.
Compare this to Carl who uses his system for 11 or 12 second bursts down the quarter mile.
He has far larger jets than you so will be consuming more nitrous but he only uses it at Drag Racing meetings and you use yours on a virtually daily basis.

Do you have a rev limiter?
If so use of a window switch might be wise as a precaution. Using such a switch means that the system would not be operated until a pre-set rpm (important on hard hitting American kits) and will be switched off prior to the rev limiter coming into play.
This upper limit meaning that nitrous cannot be injected when there is no spark to ignite it and therefore no risk of intake backfire.

If you intend to use your nitrous kit on an ongoing basis you could always rent a large refill bottle from a gas supplier and do your own refills. Costs in the hundeds for the initial outlay but will save you money per lb on your refills.

Yes, Carl must pay a lot for his gas...







In those ten seconds or less...

GTM Turbo, i see your point. This bottle has done the rolling road as well and it got used a lot there so i think that helpped it go.

i've seen the rpm switches looks good, no spear money at mo mate to get one, but if it's on the perssure switch it shouldn't be on at high rpm. just got to for now be careful on when i use it low down.

nice pic Dave!
