Thanks guys, I am surprised to see this post back to life. BTW the nitrous has not harmed my paint at all. And the look on a ricer's face is priceless.

Steve,
All my nitrous stuff came from you guys. If you need all the details get Dave to give me a call or shoot me an email. He's got my number. Once you have the correct parts, its an easy install. A kit would have saved me several trips to the parts house though.

The Oxygen is bonded to the Nitrogen and needs to be heated to break the bond into the free Oxygen and Nitrogen molecules. Nitrous Oxide is a relatively inert gas at atmosphere temperature and pressure. As in should have NO effect.

Im building a purge for my hood scoops but something about the side vents on a vet next to a ricer just tickles me.

Chris.... I'm worried I'll get branded copycat, but I've done the same thing with my 2000 FRC. Only difference is that I have put on those Zex Hi-Intensity lights to color the purge cloud. I chose blue for the color.... it matches the "very little" bit of blue neon that I have in the back, that is used for accenting my polished bottles and S/S mounting tray. I've got photos and vid's... they just aren't turning out very clear. Shooting video and taking photos at night is very tricky I'm learning. Loved your video..hope to have my own soon.

Thanks for the comments, guys. if anyone needs any help with plumbing let me know.

SlambFRC, being copied is a great compliment. I just hope you have as much fun with yours has I have. I just wanted something different. Someone suggested the LED lights to me. I would like to see some pics or vids of yours when you get them.

Chris,

I'm working a few bugs out right now. I had my system hidden, it's a direct port Noszle kit...so slowly but surely things are starting to work out. I've had two rounds or photography/video shooting. Nothing that really shows how cool I think the set-up really is....as soon as I get something post worthy, I'll put it up. Just curious... did you upgrade your injectors? I'm getting ready to switch to SVO 30#'ers, just wondering if you made this move. I'm pretty lean at high RPM even with only spraying a 100 shot.

Stephen

Hi, I emailed you a while ago about how you set up your purge. Could you send the info to NassyVette@aol.com or PM me.

Thanks a ton.

PS The purge kicks *** (obviously, since I'm copying it).
