Default I did some shopping.....

I don't even need these yet... but I'm like a 16 year old girl with her dads credit card when it comes to buying stuff for cars... And it gets worse as spring gets closer... I've bought these, a catback for my Z06.. and I've been thinking about a small dry shot for the vette too... Thanks to Ken & gary for three of them, the rest I got pretty cheap from ebay & other car forums...

You should just get a filling station now and save some $$.Just those bottles will cost $300-$350 to fill.

I was impressed, I thought about buying a couple new bottles, but I did some searching of ebay and a couple online forums and I saved a lot of $ over new... I got one or two for as cheap as $60-75

Hahaa...lots of bottles. The sad truth is though, I have just as many and in many flavors of nitrous kit manufacturers.

I have the same carpet.

3 more any we will be tied!!!

as for filling station, even with a close station, go to a 2 day track event with no one around, 7 bottles, 7 passes!!!

unless you start freezing and compinding them.
looking good, cant wait to rip **** up

you guys have to remember, when you hit a car like myself, and tim, you swap bottles after everypass!!! i use 3-4 pounds per pass, after that, the botle doesnt stay up to pressure correct.so to stay consistant full bottle every pass.

Expensive day at the track. Do you have to pay full price to fill the bottle after using 4#'s?

no, they charge you by weight, use 4 lbs from full bottle, charge you for 4 lbs to refill.

Brad and Tim, I'm almose surprised you both don't have a refill setup in your trailer, and just get the big bottle strait from a gas company. You could do refills to while you are at the track when you have time, and make back alot of the cost of your won stuff too while you are at it. At least enough to pay for the refill station. Just a thought.
