If someone on a bike shot up your car and it was in flames, and you yell NOS!!! and run for cover it wont explode like the fast and furious?

now I'd bet if someone shot up your car with tracer rounds and caused the gas tank to burn then the N2O tank would be heated and might go over the pressure limits if the safty valve failed due to heat, and if the fire were hot enough before it poped then it might eb hot enough to split the N from the O and have add to the fire

but if you had tracer rounds then the ATF will be after you as they aren't legal for civilian use.

(please, not "nos" - that is ricer talk from fast and furious, NOS is a trade name, same as Zex, for a nitrous system. The gas is N2O)

But having gone from nitrous to a supercharger it is a lot easier and more consistent in my experience having the blower. The nitrous was great and a lot of fun, but trying to find a shop in early spring or late fall race season that was still filling bottles was a pain. Plus, every trip to the track meant an extra $35 - $40 to fill the bottle. With the blower, the power is always there ready to be tapped when I need it.

we need to worry someone might start using them on gas tanks

(you can see them because of the flame that make)

Hell, a lot of people don't realize you can legally own silencers...$200 tax stamp and some paperwork!

Anyway, OP...is your car tuned for 93? you'd definetly pick up some more numbers if it isn't
