Cranleigh, surrey

Got my rolling oad on monday and wanted to see how much power i could possibly get out of it, so filled up the nitrous tank, and o my dis-belief th bill was £74. Does anyone know of anywhere near guildford surrey, apart from torque of the devil and minispeed where they do re-fills?

I beleve BOC will be able to loan you one of those 5 foot high bigass bottles, and a fill will only set you back about £100.

i have only ever got a nitrous refil once and it was for a friend, it was at Avon many years ago and i asked Carl, he topped up my friends bottle for free and even offered to lend him one of his nitrogen topped bottles since he'd broken his mini again and wouldnt be using it.

i know i said thanks but once again, top bloke.

If you had a bottle that size you'd have to put it on a roof rack and it would seriously weight the car down, I reckon you'd be better with a smaller bottle.

yes but the extra weight, will be more than offset by the near zero preasure drop that occurs when you start to consume the gas,so well worth in IMHO

its a 10lb bottle, but still i would much prefer to pay £10 per 5lb bottle. Carl where is that from? It might even be worth the trip as i have 2 10lb bottles!

Yes please tell I am now in the market for nitrous refills *happy*

I asume the nitrogen cap is at a pressure greater than the saturated pressure likely to bee seen with the nitrous under normal use, therefore the supply pressure of the nitrous remains constant?

Just found a place in stockport which is 25 miles away for me. They want £5 per lb so £25 for a refill which is not bad I think, unless your name is Carl Austin *happy*

Show stands always have inflated prices. You just have to look at the price of a burger, and that comes without any lubrication, dry and expensive!

These new modern turbos with their quick spool up time, would make the competition harder.
