Default Nitrous run???

What amount of time OR nitrous usage is considered "one run"? cause im getting a normal 10 lb and want to know how long it will last me, and how much u would normally use. for example...do i keep the nitrous on during shifting from 1 through 5. i dont know when you would use it best. thnx guys

youd keep it on 1-4. you dont race in 5th. youll want a WOT switch so that the n2o shuts off for the brief second when you shift

i think with a 75shot you can get5-6 runs in. not really sure on that

i spray through the shift...but i'm pretty quick. if you lift during the shift, you'll get slightly more out of it. if you get silly w/ the purge, you'll get more.

1 full 1/4 mile run is a "run" a 75 shot should get about 8-10 full runs.

the old rule of thumb used to be 60 continuous seconds w/ 100 hp jetting. so in essence 6- 10 second passes.

but you tend to get a little more than that, and thats 100 shot also. a 12 second 1/4 mile pass probably uses 10 seconds of nitrous.(when it hits, if you lift etc.)

the bottle won't be empty, but your bottle pressure will be about 600 or less and not even worth trying to spray anymore, your jsut wasting it.

i like to fill at about 3 lbs.

a bottle heater helps when the pressure is down.
