I run a 200hp + a 100hp, at the wheels. I run a -6 main feed line, with a high flow Y, and run it off of one bottle. I think 1 or 2 bottles is a preference thing. One works fine, but I only get 2 runs out of it. 2 might hold pressure a little better during the run, but I'm not too fond of adding the extra 25-30 lbs for the extra bottle/ bracket/BDT.

If you plan on going out for a night of street racing, and plan on doing more than 2 races, then you 2 bottles is in your future.

Oh yeah, I am also in the process of adding a Trick dual stage window switch. Its a nice cost effective way to control the two stages

I'm currently running 2 bottles 'Y'd together. They travel one mainline and 'Y' d
apart for 2 stages dry.My new plan is to seperate the bottles. I'm going to use 1 bottle to run the dry stages. And the other bottle to run a new CF/ Nitrous Direct
direct port setup as a third stage.

I used one wet nozzle @125 for first stage and a dry nozzle in the air lid @ 75 .Compined they made a 200 RWHP and it worked great on the stock short blolck.One bottle teed off turned purge into dry kit.

I did not think there would be more people using a separate bottle for each stage due to the extra weight. Keep em coming guys I know that has to be more people out there running multiple stages
