NOS has been illegal for years here, yet we still have a huge problem with boyracers. Banning it won't stop them, they'll just find other ways to rice up their cars and will still be a bunch of slobbering morons.

Yea, I know that. Back home I used to work with a regional racing team quite a bit. Got to know many of the cars and the people. Anyway.Slarty wrote:
Have you ever had any experience of using NO2 on turbo charged cars? Small injections of it at very low RPM (between 1-3K RPM) help to virtually eliminate turbo lag. Once the turbo is on boost the NO2 is cut.CapnNismo wrote:

You could of course still argue that it's unnecessary to cut out turbo lag on the road but then
STOP CALLING IT NOS! IT'S NITROUS OXIDE!
if Oxygen is O2 then what is Nitrous Oxide? I thought it was NOS...CapnNismo wrote:

I thought NOS was the Molecular Formula or something, I guess I was mistakenWiki wrote:
Nitrous Oxide Molecular Formula: N2O
I just learned something today now I can bitch at people when they say NOS

Who puts NOS on a ferrari when the NA engine is powerful enough?
Oh so wrong. The boy racers I know have income to support themselves but they do use debt to support their car. Sure there would be a few who are lucky enough through whatever means to be able to support both themselves and their car but that's a rare thing.Mitch wrote:
It's up to the 'boy racer' to decide what he can purchase with the amount of debt he owes. If you tune your car to the point where you need Nos, and your racing people who you need Nos to beat, then you've got some kind of income that supports the hobby.
Cars that may have Nos installed stick out like a sore thumb.Mitch wrote:
A cop isn't gunna know if your using Nos unless he looks.
If you make Nos illegal:
- It's more difficult to get.
- You can't get caught with it.
- You have to know a mechanic who'll let you slide.
- You can't use it in a race, (other racers not using it will protest and get you busted if you're not careful.)
I say making it illegal would work. People don't want to spend that much effort for such little gain.
I don't see what good making Nos illegal would do though really.

Thats fucking stupid. Just because it doesnt have a practical use doesnt mean it should be banned... Ban VCR's and pokemon cards. Fuck em, they dont have any uses...
Everyone should get the chance to drive or ride in a big V8 muslecar with nitrous... it's a serious rush...
Here is a friend of mine on a back road in Maryland... He is in the car on the left... He has 2 cars and the one in the video is the slower one...lol

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP
nos is illegal any way so i dont get what the fuss is about, real men use throttle bodies anyway.

You have to learn the rules of the game and then you have to play better than anyone else.
they add sulpher to it so people dont huff it. back in the day it was straight nitrous and you could take hits off the bottles. good times!ebug9 wrote:

They still sell NO2 in night-clubs in places like Ibiza, hits by the balloon, 15 minutes of semi-euphoria and stoned-giggling fits. Not that great.

Adding sulpher doesn't stop people from huffing it. We used to go to a racing place to get NOS when I was in high school. They must have known what was up when they see a car full of kids pull up with a 10 pound tank.Christbane wrote:
