I went to fill my bottle this week because I thought it was empty. it should have been totally empty after 14 passes from racing 2 weeks ago at the IDRC in palmdale and last week in carlsbad. well, NOS said I only used less than 4 pounds of nitrous and that I had 6 pounds left in my bottle! IMPOSSIBLE! i said... I made over 14 full 1/4 mile passes. there is NO WAY a 60 shot will make 14 full passes and use only 4 pounds of nitrous. when I was squeezing a 60 shot in my 300ZX I would empty a 10 pound bottle after 13-14 passes. apparently, my nitrous pressure was WAY off both weekends when I was racing and my nitrous jetting was slightly incorrect. they estimated I was only squeezing a 30-40 shot of NOS. it just goes to show how important it is to have the correct bottle pressure and a bottle heater on there to keep the pressure up.
