    That would work excellent on my Pro Street Vespa. [​IMG]


    But how do I inject the extra fuel necessary ?
    Or does it just lean out the motor until something gives ? [​IMG]

    Easy to hide a lot of round track racers use them for qualiing {time trials} or for the last lap or two. I have hidden them in roll bars,drivers suits,fuel cells{gas tanks} and radios. When I first starting using nitrous 30 plus years ago before they changed the formula you only had medical and food type. Its used to make whipped cream. My friends and myself went through about 25 twenty pound bottles before installing on the race cars.Oh yes I do not use nitrous anymore or in the race car. I quit when a friend was rear ended on the first lap and the impact knocked the head off{the nos bottle was mounted in the fuel cell} and it pushed all the fuel out of the tank and had a bad fire. I also saw the aftemath of a shop being destroyed when the owner was heating a mother bottle so he could pack more in the small bottle he was filling. The mother bottle blew apart. This s@#t is dangerous please handle with care. Bobby..

    You fill up balloons from those little bottles and make a whippet. Pull hard on a joint and then suck the gas from the balloon.

    I wonder how it works, do you puncture the bottle and it isntantly goes to the intake or is it electronic? Does it just have a hose going to the air cleaner?

    looks dangerous. Better off to go with a sneaky pete if your interested in nitrous.

    I street raced for years using a sneaky pete hidden in the glove-box of my Mustang

    those whipped cram bulbs are straight medicinal NOs whereas the usual stuff is a mix of nos and SO2 - thought half the fun of NOS was the attention you got from the big ass bottle - and if you win by cheating sure you win but you'll always wonder whether you could have done it honestly

    always was more fun sucking on the stuff - flatmates old man used to own a dive shop him and his worker used to suck back on the nos and then try and serve custys - we used to just get on the turps and fill some balloons with the nos from the bulbs - bit of entertainment - supposodly deplenishes the bodies supply of vitamin b

    I don't see how there is enough Nitrous in one of those cartridges to do anything for an engine.
