Holiday Topic - Nitrous
Re: Holiday Topic - Nitrous
Nitrous??? All good as far as I`m concerned... Cheap HP when you want it without sacrificing fuel mileage on long trips running a high HP motor..... Comments??
Re: Holiday Topic - Nitrous
All good provided it's the right application. I've been screwing with it on these bikes and trikes for the last 9 years and have learned a lot.
GOOD: Exactly what Tom says. Add to that the look good/WOW factor and what's NOT good?
NOT GOOD: Running too high a hp application of nitrous without good, forged pistons.
Thinking you have more nitrous in the bottle while pooping out racing.
Using nitrous on a cold winter day with pressure 600 lbs or less.
Not retarding timing.
Running too hot a plug.
I love nitrous and it will clearly even the playing field when going head to head with someone who clearly out horsepowers you motor only. As big a thrill as one gets when opening the carb secondaries to WOT is the additional thrill you get when pushing your nitrous trigger. It's just a big ass rush.

I was told that Nitrous will burn holes in the back of your underwear. ![Shocked :shock:](./images/smilies/icon_eek.gif)

You did read my post..."it's a big ASS rush". That supports what you were told...
