Been alot of people ask about NOS before, no one has ever tried it. Get it done properly tho because the results of a bodged job are potentially explosive!!

and theres your first mistake, thinking the cheap kits will suffice or generally being clueless.

fitting nos to cars could cause a big bang but fitting to a two wheeled machine when your sat right above it is lethal if done incorrectly,

i suggest you go and do some research.

i see, so it needs to be fine tuned incase it flips on me when it hits.

no, it needs to be done properly beacuse its massive fire/explosion hazard

How will it explode? doesnt it just mix wth the mixture and go into the engine?

[rover220]

i give up.

google

ill speak to my teacher, see what he says.

This explains it quite well

But the basic danger is that when the nitrogen and oxygen burn, the byproduct is more oxygen which on its own is a perfect fuel and is very cumbustible! Get the quantities wrong and you have a potential bomb!

oxygen is not combustable

[RedexRobB]

Yeah your right. My point is tho that pure oxygen burns very well.

[Northern ANdy]

nope it just gives an enviroment in which volatiles burn perfectly

Thats what i meant, i just werent gonna be so pedantic about it lifes far too short
