Default Nano Testing

http://s55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...t=9912d109.flv


Here's my test I did last night. 3 runs on a Stock system, then 3 runs on the Nano system! Keep in mind that I did not give the car a cool down time. I would run the car, then get right back into the line! So I ran 6 passes IN A ROW!!

NoNano:
1st run
2.04 60'
13.067 @ 107.33mph

2nd run
2.05 60'
13.213 @ 106.54mph

3rd run
2.02 60'
13.332 @ 106.25mph

Nano:
1st run
2.06 60'
12.833 @ 109.47mph

2nd run
2.09 60'
12.920 @ 108.99mph

3rd run
2.17 60'

13.032 @ 107.62mph

That's cool for comparison. Why run a Nano system though?

What shot where you running. Must have been a small shot. The nano or other nitrogen push setups really shine with large shots. I like those setups.

I am sold on the nano system. It should work good with a 300shot

Nice, just don't let tech find it. I have been looking towards this as well...and 383LQ4SS is right...should put out better results with the bigger shots as the pressure is dropping faster with them. Solid comparison

Keeps your bottle pressure the same throughout the whole run instead of dropping like a kit without a nitrogen push system would. Does this till the bottle is out of nitrous. You constantly lose power down the track as you are spraying because the pressure is going down, nitrogen push solves this. They say you will gain .2 and a couple mph like this guy did...and the gains should be even more with the bigger shots!

Very nice, I'm running one of the 15lb kits in my car and ran the 10lb kit in my old TBSS, so far loving it! Nothing better than watching people wait for their bottles to heat up and knowing I got pressure instantly and always.

I wonder if using this would allow you to mount the bottle in any position you want?

Yes, you would not need a bottle heater anymore. Pressure stays at perfect psi till the bottle is out of nitrous.

The pickup tube still has to be at the bottom so you can't really mount it certain ways(upside down/etc).

the nice thing about the nano is that you can get it filled anywhere. Goin paintballin? Bring your nano bottle with you and have them fill that while they are at it. Goin to get welding gas? Bring your nano there too. Paintball bottles are rated at 4500 psi too so that would lead me to believe all you really need is the nitrous bottle valve, right? Not to cheap out, but damn! Its really expensive!

what other nitrogen pushed systems are out there?

The biggest hang-up with systems like this is that they are specifically banned from IHRA and NHRA tracks. There is no way tech at our track would let you out with one.on that note which track let you race with it sshunter?

They are now nhra approved, but some of the classes you can't run it. MMRA has approved it, but I'm not sure about IHRA yet.

Actually I just went out and looked at my bottle which is from NOS.




See that bolt on the side? I wonder if I could just take a nitrogen tank for paintball with valve of its own and run it into there with, say, a -4AN line.

Guys...look up "nitrogen push"
I made a different type of system thats alot cheaper years ago. IMO it also works better. You could make your own for about $350 including another bottle.
