2 Stage nitrous questions.
What are the advantages of a 2 stage system other than launch traction by shooting a small shot first and then a larger shot after you have traction. Is it easier on your engine and drivetrain? Thanks.

Re: 2 Stage nitrous questions.
Other than traction....advantages are:
1) its benificial to the engine especially on launch to keep from hitting a very large shot of nitrous at too low an RPM.
2) can be easier to tune. two 150 shots, one at 3000 rpm the other at 5000 rpm will be easier to CORRECTLY time/tune IMO than a single 300 blast at low RPM.
3) allows use of an overall larger shot to be applied since the second stage will come in as rpm is building and there is more "room" for additional nitrous at higher rpms.
