That was one of the first photos I took RIGHT AFTER I got the bottles mounted. I have blowdown tubes on them now!

o.k. I just see stuff like that and it looks great, but then people don't put a lowdown on, I've seen bottles actually pop in the sumer at car shows in cars taht were sitting out in the sun for hours.

Have that happen when you're driving, might get scary nevermind not being able to breathe.

A proper bottle should have a burst disc to keep the bottle from rupturing. The blow down just redirects the nitrous out of the car.

OK PEEPS. I have a BLOWDOWN fitting on the bottle WITH a burst DISC and then a -8AN BLOWDOWN tube made by me THAT is attached to two bulkhead FITTINGS that vent UNDER the car.

Is that clear enough for everyone??? LOL

That's a good attitude, first time that bottle decides it's not happy and vents in the car, and the nitrous sprays on something and freezes it and cracks an interior panel, a glass panel, gives you frost bite badly, you'll regret that attitude.


Safety people, you just don't unerstand what you're playing with. Until you've seen a bottle blow and shoot across a shop while it'e beign filled, or shoot around in a trailer because the burst disks went, worse hit someone and hurt them badly, you just don't understand what you are messing with.
