nitrous woes

[Weapon_R]

Amateurs don't use Nitrous Oxide!!

Sorry to hear it man...

Was you making sure the throttle was pretty much on full while nitrous was on, or maybe you was running it on a cold engine, but it should not do that

man... i think i almost seen this one comming... did you atleast have a fuel pressure guage to make sure the fuel pressure was up when spraying? or even a POS autometer air/fuel guage? did you double check if you have the right jets in?... i've seen lots of people blow up with both wet/dry kits....... as simple as it seems its all in the install. if you don't install it right your asking for it.

Hey bol,

I've seen the way you drive, you got a heavy foot. Amatuers don't use nitrous oxide. You'll blow yourself to bits!

Damn what's up lately dood?

Again Bol I was sorry to hear about your trouble.

I have had good luck with my wet kit so far, the only problems that I have had have been sheer stupidity on my part.

eg.

outside temp= 5 degrees C
Bottle pressure= 700PSI FULL.

Gords thinking= "How bad can it be? I should just be a little rich right?"

Actual Fact= 90hp jets at 700psi on the nitrous equates to about the equivelent of 30hp jets at 1000 psi. To say I ran rich was an understatment! My poor little truck belched out a 20 foot cloud of smoke as it tried to digest 90hp worth of fuel and 30hp worth of nitrous.

My timeslip for that run was 24 seconds at a little over 60 mph.

I am just sorry that your nitrous mishap was damaging, I was lucky and wound up just looking stupid.

Let me know what you decide to do for the fix...
