Question How many passes on a 150 shot?

How many quarter mile passes will I get out of one 10lb bottle on a 150 NX wet single nozzle kit?

I only make 3 passes on mine.

I think on the 4th you'd run out 1/2 way down the track.

The amount you will use depends on how long your system is on. How many times you purge, the size of the purge solenoid, what hp level you are at, progressive system or not.
Quick math says you will use 1lb for every 100hp for 10 seconds. So if you used 150hp and your car runs 10sec. 1/4 mile time you use 1.5 lbs of nitrous.200hp the same times you used 2lb.
Now once a bottle gets below its half way point the performance will start to fall off at the 150 setting.

i usually run 4 times, when i go to the track, and it is about 5 lbs., so i am guessing i could get 8 out of it but you never want to run it all of the way empty
