Default Purgeless

Me again with questions. I've decided that I'm going to go without a purge. At the track I'll either just bite the bullet of one run where the nitrous doesnt hit right away or either try to get a small spray during a burnout. My question is what do I do after I'm done running the nitrous. I gather that its good to purge your system when the bottle is closed to get all the pressure out of the lines so as to not stress your noids. What would I do since I'll be purgeless? Do I just turn the bottle off, arm the nitrous system and go WOT to clear out the lines?

All you have to do is loosen the feed line nut at the bottle....

Running without a purge is not a big deal....purging does help with consistancy and does help squeeze out all the power you can.

To take your bottle out just do what was mentioned...crack the line on the bottle slightly. It feels good on a cool day

I ran my slow car both ways over the years. I wouldn't lose sleep about it.

If you are that worried about it, you can always crack the input after you open your bottle. I don't know about the other guys, but I would NEVER spray a burnout.

Yes, you should bleed the line at the bottle before you leave the track.

Never worry about learning, this is an expensive & dangerous hobby, ask ?? all you want.

Good to know thanks guys. I'll just bite the bullet on one run each time i go down to the track then. Its not that big of a deal, I only race for fun. I didnt even think about cracking the line loose at the bottle. That'll work for me.

If its a dry kit, just close the bottle and arm the kit and do a WOT run on the way home. It'll take less than a second to drain the nitrous in the line, you'll barely feel it. Don't do that if its a wet kit though, you don't want to be soaking your intake in fuel.

It is a dry kit. I just wasn't sure if that was 100% safe. (I dont see why it wouldnt be safe but I'm paranoid like that).
