Well once you get to 50% of nitrous HP against engine HP it gets dangerous. Such as a 500 HP engine with 250 shot is 50%.
Yeah you should always have your tune up on point but once your close, at or above 50%, you better be on top of your shit or POW. Now you have binoculars instead of piston thanks to the piston goddess lol. With that being said, a 150 shot is where the saftey factor comes in. The lower percentage of nitrous HP vs engine HP you have a greater margin of error. So to answer you question, go play with a small tune up and read your plugs. Get to know what they look like and how bottle presure changes the spark plugs along with fuel presure. Bottle presure will change, go less aka cold after spraying it because of flow. Weird but it does. Fuel presure will change throughout the day from temptress of the day and some regulators will just change. Therfore knowing this stuff on your system is good saftey knowledge. Go play and watch your system for changes so you can keep adjusting if needed. Because if you don't you'll be like others saying nitrous is bad for a engine and it's not.
BTW. Read the bottle. It's not flammable. Lol. Damn fast and furious bullshit.
Ha... Yeah im aware that its not flammable.. at all...
Currently, im spraying a 150 my plugs look excellent. And 0 speckling or anything like that. I am pulling 6 degrees out when spraying overkill i know.
Last time out, i sprayed throughout the day at different times/temps. The wideband still read about the same no matter what. Which was in the 10.5-10.8 range while spraying. Its way on the fat side and im jetted 63n/55f
I run either VP110 or F&L SP-3 (113) while on the bottle, and it just feeds both the engine/nitrous system.
Another question i have is in regards to the fuel line
My setup is as follows...
-10 from the cells to a 1/2 npt valve (so i can switch tanks)
-10 to the fuel pump (magna 275)
-8 from the fuel pump to a -8 Y
-8 from the Y to the carb regulator and then -8 all the way to the carb
-8 reduced to -4 from the Y to the nitrous regulator and then -4 all the way to the solenoid
I recently changed my carb from -6 to -8 and i have all the fittings and line to convert the nitrous side over. My question is, how much will the -4 support?
I mean, the solenoid fitting is only 1/8pipe. -4 already is equivelant to 1/4 pipe. For nothing more than a 250 shot, is the -4 sufficient?
Is it more of a volume thing? kind of having a "reserve"going into the solenoid?
