thats a normal  honda

Ha thats a funny movie, I love the gangsta wanna be commentary.

[xtremeraptor]

BAD ASS BANSHEE. IT WOULD HAVE WON ANYWAY....AND THAT JAP SCRAP CIVIC IS WHERE IT BELONGS.....................IN THE GRAVE HOPEFULLY THEY DONT REBUILD

[maiko_raptor]

"JAP SCRAP" wow who you think make banshee

[KXKID]

dang man i hate to be in that civic

[ppark350se]

the reason for heating the bottles is becouse the nos is so cold it freezes   as for the fire you were correct it was a nitrus back fire and if u noticed the intake tube was mad of 3inch pvc

[Anoriginal]

Nitrous does not freeze in the state we think of it, nor will it ignite in any state we could ever put it into, outside of a chem lab. Also, as far as the fire coming from N2O puddling, nope. If it is a "wet" system, gas is injected with the N2O. The gas will puddle...then add a back fire and BOOM, you could get a fire issue real quick. Nirous Oxide is cold under pressure when moving and gathers moisture as it travels. Ever taken one of those spray air cans that you clean your keyboard with and sprayed it for a long time? It will ice up the exterior  from the humidity in the air. The same thing can happen internally (on the delivery system) depending on the amount of water in system. If you have sufficient water present, the jets/ports/valves/solenoids can actually "freeze" and stop the flow of nitrous.
What makes Nitrous work is the extra oxygen it delivers to your engine. It contains 2 parts nitrogen and one part oxygen.

The Nitrogen is basically inert as far as performance, however; delivering the oxygen is the key. It acts as a catalyst allowing your engine to burn more fuel more completely. Essentially, it adds atmosphere to your motor. Same principal is used in aceytolene (sp?) torches. The aceytolene is flammable and will burn nasty and moderate hot (ever notice the black smoke coming off the torch flame with the oxygen off? That's carbon left over from unburned fuel) Throw in the oxygen and the flame gets hotter and turns blue and all the smoke goes away because all the fuel (aceytolene) is being used.

Bottle heaters are much more safe than using a torch. In fact, using a torch is just plain foolish. The bottles are usually high grade aluminum alloy. Some these days are carbon fiber. Repeated heating and cooling an aluminum structure (like a bottle) under intense and focused heat will break down the aluminum and can cause rupture. Bottle heaters slowly and safely heat all (or at least the majority) of the bottle on a gradual basis, allowing the bottle to uniformly expand. This heating acclerates the Nitrogen and Oxygen molecules, causing the gas to "expand" which equals more registered bottle pressure.

Okay, I know I sound like a nerd. However, I've run nitrous quite a bit in numerous forms and applications. I find it to be a reliable power adder and I've never had any problem with it in the past. To me, the key is proper set up of both the system and the engine it's on. Combine that with a person with common sense and it makes for a fun time. True, the main draw back will always be having to keep those bottled filled.

In this dumba$$es cause he was trying to spray WAY to much nitrous and it puddled in the Intake cause a nitrous
backfire which  is not a un common thing with people  who know nothing about n2o.

I've seen someone in a corvette do that.  Vette with NOS, too much nos in it and BOOM and exact same thing as this civic.

Ill try to find the video.

[1slowfox]

nah , its not always to much it can also be in how you have the nozzle placed ..


was the vette yellow ?

yamahas seems to have that effect on hondas.

it doesnt take a wet kit to cause a nitrous back fire that blows the intake off. my friends civic hatch did it when he let his friend drive it  (both alittle impared) he had about a 30shot dry setup with a w.o.t. stiwch he turned the system on while at a lite and flored it on green which means insante power about 200 in this little car is a hard launch but it back fired from the spray right off of idel.

[ppark350se]

and the fire afterwards is a nitrous fire the idiots didnt have a good system it was just on a switch wich caused the nitrous to continue to flow and fuel the fire wich lites the wireing harness on fire and anything left that was flamable.

Well that guy with that Civic was an idiot trying to warm up the Nitrous.  Anyways that Banshee has at least 100hp++  and it only weighs about 400lbs. And the power to weight ratio is just nuts.  Why race a civic is a piece of sh*t..

Sweet Bansheeeeee!! That thing IS FAST!!

i could possibably get ahold of one of the fastest civic in the tampa bay area street legal that is. you and him can line up and run see how big of peice of sh.t that civic is.
