Nitrous Bottle Explosion(pics!)
lol at the people saying this is why they would never run nitrous. tards.
If said bottle was in a fire there is a chance it exploded at a pressure below the burst disc's pressure rating.
ALL bottles come with a safety release valve and a burst disc behind it that will empty the bottles contents if the pressure gets too high, all a blowdown tube is, is a male fitting that replaces the release valve and has a tube screwed on the end of it, so that if it bursts, the nitrous is released outside of the car, all blowdown kits will also come with a brand new burst disc.

Now I know that people who refuse to do any kind of research before buying/installing
are likely to never try installing the part ever again and deter their ricer buddies to do
the same. I consider these situations win-win.
I assume you don't know much about the potential a Maxima has. Click the link below to see a stock bottom end Maxima with nitrous...
