Exactly! Nitrous is an awesome bang for buck if you're not constantly going thru lots of bottles.

I think everything will be fine really. When i get it out in the next couple days (maybe even today, it's pretty damn nice out) i think i'll run the rest of that bottle out. I'll know if something is up in the first few hits.

The second you purge it, moisture will be blown out of the nitrous feed line.

All I do it shut my bottle valve, and purge the pressure out of the line.

I don't have a purge. I have a dry kit.

His name is Lidio, and he owns Alternative Auto. Here's some pics of his Mach, but for what ever reason, there's none with the nitrous. I've seen it before, and it puts down 740 rwhp with the juice, and runs low 10's on 17" dr's. To be honest i don't know much else about it other than what's on his site.

Honestly, with that car, I wouldn't imagine the nitrous it on there for the power adding ability, more so than the advantages of how cold nitrous is, cooling off the air to the blower to keep intake temps way down.
