Bottle Pressure and Fuel Pressure? Whats the relatioship between bottle pressure and fuel pressure if any? Someone said to, 'raise the bottle pressure to 1200lbs to lean it out a little.' What does that mean? I have the TNT Wet kit, how do I set the bottle pressure and what should I set I to? Do I set it by adjusting the bottle warmer- and if so how do I adjust the bottle warmer?
Re: Bottle Pressure and Fuel Pressure? Basically the higher the pressure in your bottle...the more the nitrous will flow when you spray. Fuel pressure should be constant since its run by the fuel pump. So If fuel flow is constant and nitrous flow changes with bottle pressure...the AF ratio will change with bottle pressure(nitrous flow). Higher bottle pressure = leaner( more O2), lower bottle pressure = richer(less 02). The best way to find out optimum is have AF check on a dyno with a wideband o2 sensor during the run. Or you should be safe with manufacturers recomendations for bottle pressure and pill size.
Bottle pressure can be raised by heating the bottle. As bottle temp rises bottle pressure rises as well. To set desired bottle pressure...turn on the heater and monitor pressure gauge until desired pressure is reached.
