Default How safe is being bottle fed?

this one is for all the nitrous guys. im tossing up the idea about getting some juice. however i dont know a whole lot about it. but i was wondering with a "safe" setup how often can you spray without blowing the motor? is it something you can spray once a week or once a month?

Well, there's no definitive line on how often you can spray before blowing a motor, but i've been running mine for a a few years now (numbers are in my sig) without any problems whatsoever. As long as it's truly "safe" you can spray a bottle a day if you like. But, like any power adder, it will cause things to wear out faster.

That depends. I pay $4 per lb, and have a 10lb. bottle. Check out your local speed shops. Someone's bound to have it.

I pay $3.25/lb here. I have been spraying a 100-125 shot for almost 3 years without any problems. I do have a mail-order tune for my 125 shot.

An SVT Focus fuel pump is a good idea also, regardless if its a wet or dry kit.
