All you need to know N2O !!

• How much N20 are you currently flowing ?
• How much fuel are you flowing ?
• How much alternator amperage ?
• What specific gravity fuel do you use ?
• What heat range spark plug is proper ?
• Why is fuel cell location important ?
• Can you answer above questions properly ?

N2O Flow ??????

• What is I.D. of solenoid ?
• What is I.D. of line being utilized ?
• What jet size is in use ?
• What pressure is on the bottle ?
• You should flow the system _at_ 950 psi for 10sec
  and re-weigh the bottle !
• Each 1lb of N20 / 10 sec equals 100 HP !

4
Fuel Flow ??????

• What is I.D. of solenoid ?
• What is I.D. of line being utilized ?
• What jet size is in use ?
• What rating pump and regulator are in use ?
• What weight fuel is in use ?
• With .69-.75 s.g. fuel (gasoline) system should
  flow 105-125 ccs in 10 sec for each 100 HP !
  E-85 135-150 ccs in 10 sec.

5
Ignition System Basics

• Reduce timing 3-4 degrees per 100 HP N20
• Install 1 step colder plug per 150 HP N20
  (smaller gap may be necessary)
• Install quality ignition system

6
Charging System

• Always use an alternator with a rating of 80-100
  amps (2 stage N2O- 150-200amps)
• Always use high quality batteries and electrical
  components

7
Ampherage Needs

• 20 amps for ignition
• 15 amps for motor fuel pump
• 15 amps for N20 fuel pump
• 20 amps for water pump electric fan
• 15 amps for 1st stage N20
• 15 amps for 2nd stage N20
• 10-20 amps for lights, transbrake, retards

8
Other Info

• With rear fuel cell, run more fuel pressure than
  required due to G-forces
• Always run 900-950 bottle pressure
• Try not to run projected tip spark plugs if
  possible (ground strap will burn off )
• Open up exhaust side of motor by whatever means
  (headers, big mufflers, cam, etc.)

Other Fuels

• Methanol
• Ethanol E85
• Nitromethane
• Butane
• Propane
• Etc.

10
Volume Velocities

• Plates
• Plenum Tubes
• Fogger Systems
• Etc.
