Default How many 1/4 passes on a 15lb bottle of squeeze?

5177 dry, 15lb bottle. Using "100hp" jets?

Need to plan for tomorrow. Gonna spray myself off the track (I hope <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0"> )

I'd say 7-8 full passes.

About 2 lbs per minute per 50 actual HP. Kits vary as to how much nitrous they spray with whatever they call a given shot. For example, some measure at the wheels and others at the flywheel.

So, assuming 100 HP you would get a max of 10 passes with a 15 lb bottle assuming that you sprayed for 15 seconds each pass (yes, I know you're not going to spray for 15 seconds but I used that number to add some safety margin and to take into consideration purging.) Can you actually scavenge your bottle to be completely empty and also maintain adequate bottle pressure that low? No. That's also why I used 15 seconds.

ExtremeZ28, 10 is 2/3 of 15. 2/3 of 10 passes is 6.66 passes.

Moving to the nitrous section. <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

McRat, I know SSpeed gets about 15-20 passes out of his 15lb bottle with the 75 shot jets.
