nitrous bottle heaters

wadman · January 13th, 2008, 05:08 PM

What method of heating your nitrous bottles do you guys use? I just bought a Nitrous kit for my car and didnt realize that you had to have the bottle pressure between 900 and 1100 lbs. We never new this back in "the day" I guess we just werent getting the hit we could have. I dont like the idea of using a torch to heat it. I bought the Zex heater but havent installed it yet.

i use the bottle heater that came with my NX genx2 kit

the zex is a good heater,do you have the gauge also

torch days are long gone, and the bottle heater has become a regular accessory. Use it, and be confident your bottle pressure is always right..

Hey wadman...are you running colder plugs? and a tune?

Didn't you use to have a turbo?

I think he sold it a few weeks ago.

Yes I sold the turbo, I am running the hto plugs and a canned diablo 91 octane tune with 93 gas.

How come you traded a turbo for nitrous?

wadman · January 13th, 2008, 09:03 PM

Well lets just say the turbo had way too many issues for me. Ive run nitrous back years ago and I feel comfortable with it. It lets your car remain very drivable while the extra power is available when you want it.

Not what I would have done, but it makes sense.
