Default RE: how long does a 10# nos bottle last?

It depends on the size of the jets, but i've read 10 seconds per .8lbs of nitrous. Let's just simplify it and say for every 12 seconds you are spraying, you use up 1 lb of nitrous. So according to my calculations you could spray for 2 minutes straight with a 10lb bottle.

I wouldn't be going to run the magic mile with nitrous though, not all the time any way. My bro 12lb bottle with 100 shot lasted approx 10 runs at the strip.

Default RE: how long does a 10# nos bottle last?

those numbers sound about right

w/ 80 jets and squirting out of the hole and all the way down i get 10 full passes b4 i need a refill, which is actually about 7 lbs, you lose too much pressure after that so every time you fill...your not getting 10 lbs, just about 6-7

i would say you'd getsomething like (20) 6 second blasts out of it as long as you keep it warm, but thats a guess
