Default Only purging?

I'm generally curious, would you be able to just purge NOS or do you have to use it? For example, instead of hooking it up to the motor, can you just use a purge kit and purge? Thanks

Well what you do is you let out a big purge so that the other guy thinks you have NOS and then you win the race. Then you unhook the bottle, take it out of the car and say double or nothing. Since it was a close race, the other guy thinks he has a chance but really he doesn't because you were on all motor to begin with.





































j/k I have never heard of anyone doing this. Like... ever. If you are going to hook it up, use it lol.

so if someone was stupid enough to do it, would they just run a purge kit or could they just run hoses and a switch to a nozzle?

They sell kits just for that. 2lb bottles... Just T off it and run one line in the airbox and the baby 1/8th inch line with a pinhole in it to your purge point... lol. I bought a purge kit for my minibike to spray it.

Never race a 4th gen on a scooter unless you got the NOS!
