N2O baackfire = exploding hood.
The video and this picture cant go together in my mind....lol....that hood blew off cause of a back fire but nothing looks different under the hood?......where did the back fire occur then?
But, if the hood was all one piece, the air comes in thru the nostrels then thru the air filter and in the motor..
It looks like this due to the top half of the hood peeled off.
Yea i was just expecting to see a blown up intake....seeing the hood peel off like that made me think it was gonna look nasty under the hood......It looks like a wet shot...ive never seen one back fire out thru the filter only, usually i seem them crack the intake manifold tho.

The reason it came out the TB is by the looks of the video you were pretty much WOT.So the pressure went for the quickest way out of your intake"lucky you".Im
sure its to late but i would have checked my plugs right away sense you dont have the A/F guage.Plugs usually tell all..

In the ~5 sec. I had WOT, the bottle pressure jumped from ~950 to ~1300.

Damn!!!!!! Yeah I would say that you are lucky but now I'm scared as hell. I'm setting here getting ready to spray my car with the nano system but now I don't want to. I will be doing all kinds of calling around and double checking because I don't know what to really do to prevent this when I use the nano. Any help from sponsors and experts that have been using the nano would be greatly appreciated.

Do you have a Lean Safety shut off switch? If so would that have prevented this? I just brought one and hooked it up? Any other saftey equipment that you think I should have? I got the window switch, stand alone, timing tuner, progressive controller and a fuel pressure saftey switch for the stand alone. Am I missing anything?
