Default How long will it last?

How long will 2 10lb NOS bottles last if I shot 50hp each for 1/4 pass. I know hard question but Trying to get a idea.
And am thinking of buying a fill station!

Are they both opened at the same time? So its like you have a 20lb bottle? Assuming you have good bottle heaters you should be able to get the full 50 shot quite a few passes probably around 15.

PS: If you spray a 50shot on a turbo car like yours...do u get 50hp? Beacuse in your post you said " if I shot 50hp", If you have to have a bigger jet then a 50shot to get 50hp then obviously u would get less passes.

Well it is a true 2 stage so 10lb each! but on the F/I I got 32hp out of a 25hp jet so 50hpjet is 70hp. But still true 50hp jets each on a wet system!

12 shots, possibly 15 but the last 2-3 could cause some stuttering. That is just a guess though.

The equation is "about"

0.1 pounds of N2O - per second - per hunderd shot

This does not factor in low bottle, temp, etc...
