I sprayed it against anything on the road, no matter if I could put buses on them N/A or not.
I would fill up and be empty same day.

I just finished installing my kit today. Now I have to play the waiting game for some good weather so that I can go test it out on the street. I can't wait, but I'm sure I'll be nervous the first time I hit it

Congrats I got my 100 dry and loved it don't go too high but it is addicting. You will enjoy it with the stuff you got definetely 1 sec off i have yet to go back with mine but enjoyed getting some revenge on past defeats, only 2 runs under belt. Car looks sick how do you like it with the 3200 stall I had one but blew my transmission and put back stock one then nitrous and was omg fast, let me know how you like the stall, thanx mine I thought was a little to high shifted at 6k then back down to 5500 I thought way to high animal off the line dead after 60 mph. Sorry about rambling thanx for reading.

romansz28, where are you from? How much are they charging you to fill the bottles?

I'm gonna be using the old blow torch to heat the bottle for now I think. I want to get a NANO setup, but don't have the money yet, and I don't want to soend the money on a bottle heater when I could put it towardsa a NANO.

Using a blow torch on a bottle can yield some deadly results. I know racers have done it for years but the flame tip can actually weaken the bottle. Get you a cheap bottle heater to hold you over while you save up for the nano system.

I can still remember the first time i sprayed, I was like "that was it I expected more" then i realized I made a stupid noob move and had the bottle closed so i opened it tried again and nearly **** myself. its definately addicting, afterr all these years It still gives me a semi when i hit it.
theres nothing like smoking the tires from a 60roll and saying can we go again from 80 I cant get traction. LOL

+1. The bottle can explode at that weak point, releasing 1000+ PSI, which is a bomb.

I was just talking to my buddy and he said that they used a heat gun on his bottle, so I'll probably just do that.
