Made my best runs on Friday with my bottle pressure at 910 psi.

I had 3 lbs of nitrous left, but my bottle pressure went down to 600. I have a bottle warmer and the bottle temp was 95 degrees F. No leaks. Shouldn't bottle pressure at that temp still be 900+? Mabey the bottle temp was too hot?

Annealing mark is pretty much equal in all holes.

On a 10 lb bottle only run it down to 5

svt_z06

Got it. I have this one.

Yo had too little nitrous in the bottle, no matter what temp you can safely bring it up to you won't get an ideal pressure out of it. Usually a 10lb bottle gets tough to regulate ideal pressure out of once it is down to about 6lbs left in the bottle... anything less than that you're just about wasting your time on it in my experience.

svt_z06

Thank you. So basically I can only use 5 lbs of nitrous and the last 5 goes to waste. Just sucks that I spend money for 10 lbs and only can really use 5.

Wouldnt the place where you get your bottle filled only charge you for the gas they actually add to the bottle? Thats the way it should be

G Atsma

Yeah, only the first fill should be 10#. But I think he means having 10# capacity and only being able to use 5#

Right, nothing goes to waste, just refill. You want more capacity, run dual bottles or a single 15.

Unfortunately the place I get it filled at requires the bottle to be empty. Looking for a differnt shop that can do it. Sucks!!!

Nitrous Outlet Gravity Fill Kit
Scoop up one of these and a mother bottle and you can be doing your own top offs!

More or less yes, and you're welcome. I can usually get about 5lbs of use out of each bottle and then it needs to be topped off. The rest doesn't go to waste really because it's still in the bottle, you just need to get it refilled to replace what's been used. I've never heard of a place that requires the bottle be empty for a refill, you should find another filling station. As has been mentioned here, if you're going to get serious with nitrous a mother bottle and filling station at home becomes quite useful and cost effective.

The nano system keeps pressure high even on low nitrous bottles .Not many people use them but it is a possible solution to your problem. I chose nano over a bottle heater .

svt_z06

Oooooooooo....I like this idea.

$600 for the kit though....

It also appears that with this kit you either need to lower your jets or increase fuel for the added 25% increase in pressure/consistancy. I'm thinking about it! Being able to use all my nitrous is what I want, so I may go this route.

svt_z06

Trying to figure out the plumbing. My bottle only has a blow down and outlet. Not sure where the line from the NANO bottle goes.

I had two ports on my bottle\valve.. Both were plugged. Used one for a pressure guage on the bottle. One for the "nano" valves.

I have the 3000psi kit. I can refill nano bottles at paintball store.
I never changed jets. I have a wideband and it stays near 11.5 afr on a pull with spray. As always....scan and see what's necessary.

svt_z06

I've read with the increase in pressure, it will usually increase power with just a simple swap. It essentially makes the shot bigger, which is cool! I tune my stuff when going down the track and have a wideband so I am good there.

Updating to be a bit more informative. Basically, the NANO kit comes with a NEW valve with two ports. One for the NANO entry, and one for the nitrous exit.

I will have to REMOVE my current valve, and install theirs.
