Removed nirtous this week. too much to consider while spraying. the few times i did it was a great HP gain but not worth the wisk sense i know more about sitting it up correctly. didnt like the idea of spraying fuel through the charger. needed to retard the timing to help prevent detonation. But the purge was a blast. scared alot of girls downtown with it. lol

Fast and the Furious made everybody start saying "I have NOS" when NOS is a brand, not a shortened down version of Nitrous.

Anywho, dry or wet shot?? What size shot??
Actually a lot of people refer to it as NOS simply meaning a Nitrous Oxide System. Lots of old school drag racers refer to it this way.

Read above. But this being said a lot of people call it nos because the do not whats going on.

The law is different in just about every state. I am unaware of any state that states the nitrous must be armed for it to be illegal.

If your leak is at a connection make sure you're using teflon paste,
TEFLON PASTE, not teflon tape. Also, -AN fittings don't use anything.
Actually red loctite is the best thing to use. AN fittings can need it from time to time. I have had some that needed a dab of loctite.

Can be done with tape if you know what you are doing and are careful, but yeah, use the paste sealant.
Can be. But its just not a good idea.

And if you go have a problem on #7 it might cost a motor.

Oh yea. i talked to Charleston county Commander i head said "as long as you can drive legal it shouldnt be a problem." I hooked my fuel line to the Fuel pressure test port. and yes i took the valve out, but it is tricky to seal because 20 style threads arent made to seal, but it wasnt a fuel leak. fuel doesnt look like snow and my car wouldnt run it had that big of a fuel leak and the fuel pump doesnt make that much pressure
The pressure in the manifold will be less. Decreased temps as well as a lower pressure caused by 1000 psi nitrous shooting past.

Sounds like a phone call and possible a few parts could have made a world of difference. let me know if I can ever help.
