How long can you run N2O, continuously? Let's say I wanted to use nitrous for top speed runs only. It would be used in the upper gears only, but I might need to run it for as long as 90 seconds or so.
Is this practical?
I realize you'd go through quite a bit of nitrous, but putting that aside, is this likely (or guaranteed) to cause engine damage?

i cant say on the engine damage. but i know you will need a pusher system to help keep your bottle pressure up. Without it, you will lose bottle pressure in no time and lose lots of HP

Spraying that long is going to build a lot of heat in the cylinders, and possibly cause detonation. Which could lead to engine failure. If you have a way to monitor the engine while spraying I would try it. I'm sure you can use a meth injection or something of the sorts to cool the charge.
When spraying that long the ground straps will most likely melt off the plugs. The ground straps glow when you make a typical run. When the are exposed to that much heat for that long they will be gone. Switching to a colder plug wont do any good. My 2 cents, Josh
IMO, dont spray more than 15 seconds. use the no2 to get you up to speed and into 4th gear if your in an a4, then back off it
why 15? bc i see people doing it all the time without to terrible effects, everyone i know that burned their **** up on dry shots, did it on top end runs
