This goes out to anyone...For those who use nitrous or have used nitrous, do you guys like it?? What are the pros and cons of nitrous? I've done my homework, I just want to see how you guys feel about nitrous, and if you guys are happy with it.

I love my nitrous. The only con that I can think of is having to refill the bottle. It is the cheapest big power adder out there. I love the nitrous and would reccomend it.

I love the stuff. I have had mine only 1 month now and i am in the middle of my second bottle. The only bad thing is that i am basically addicted to it now and my car feels like a dog without the juice. The purge also scares potential racers like an STI in my case i intemidated the **** out of some kid in as sti. I would get a good safe kit with a fuel pressure safety switch. You defently need a bottle heater also. It would be hard to get the pressure up if it was a cool day, and you never know when you might need the stuff.

n20 rules, alot of people are afraid of it, but alot of people dont know about it. they scream no n20, s/c or turbo, but they are just ignorant, they all do the same thing and that is add more oxygen to your cumbustion chamber 2 of them do it mechanicaly the other chemically, i use both, vortech s trim and a 50 shot to inter/supercool the compressed air coming in!!

ehh its not bad. i have had it for a year now and filling the bottle is a pain this year. the guy that use to be at the track to fill isn't there anymore and the cheapest place locally is 6 bucks which im not paying. so i have to drive an hour to get a decent price which is 45 for a fill though i asked on her awhile back what people pay and most were around 3 bucks.

make sure you get all the safety things to keep your car from getting fuggered up

I have a question... When do you use it? Or when is it ideal to use it?

ALSOOOOOO Is it like a press it once and it goes on for 10s or you hold it for as long as you want it.

whenever you want to race, just arm it. when you arm it, you have a WOT and window switch so it sprays when you go wide open between a certain RPM range. it's not like f&f where you hit a button and things get blurry.
