what is the biggest bottle I can jam in my sled. the 2 lbs. bottle just runs out to fast, and you guy's are rite this stuff is addicting! :4STroke: :nos
 

A 100lb canister will fit in a special made trailer that you pull behind the sled.

LOL JK I run a 2.5lb the most I think is around 2 of those. Possibly a custom seat and you might get a 10-20lb back there but it would take a lot to make it comfortable and not look all hacked up.
 
I run a 3lb Boondocker bottle in the nose and a 2.5 lb bottle in the trunk.

If you run the bottle in the nose, you might have to relocate the voltage regulator to behind the bracket. Just unbolt it and put it on the back side of the bracket. You can just attach it to the back side with zip ties.

see pics of the bottles here http://www.ty4stroke.com/viewtopic.php?t=47985
 
thanks stoutner, just trying to figure out which nitrous system to go with and how big with just pump gas, looking at boondocker, boss noss and cold fusion any help you can give is appreciated.

I like my Boondocker system. It is a little more money but is very easy to install and is basically "plug & play". two hour install and you probably will not have to do any fuel adjustments. The controller comes pre-programmed for your fuel mixture. Any adjustments would be very minor. I use the adjustable regulator system with the Throttle Position Sensor activation. With a turn of the regulator knob, I can run 20 hp for a little extra power or crank it all the way open for about 80 hp.

I don't know too many people running the boss system. Many guys are running the Holtzman System and are very happy with that. Check with NOS-PRO, 87gtNOS, and srxspec. These guys will be very helpful.

If you are brand new to nitrous, I would highly recommend boondocker. I think it is nitrous for dummies. If you have some nitrous experience, any brand will work well if set up properly.

P.S. I was just looking at the cold fusion. I wouldn't recommend that unless you are running a bottle heater. A bottle heater is no big deal...but keep it in mind. Their adjustable regulator only goes down to 600 psi. It is very hard to maintain 600 psi without a bottle heater in the winter time.

Cold fusion nitrous is fine I run a bottle heater without an adjustable pressure regulator valve. In about 20 minutes I see 900psi and my bottle is mounted in the nose.

I run N.O.S. and Cold Fusion is a spin off.

I agree. If you have some N2O experience, the cold fusion set up will be fine. A lot of guys don't like running bottle heaters. I ran one last year and it is no big deal. Just another $100 and a few minutes to wire it.
 
I ran a 5lb. bottle in the nose of my rx1, but I did not run a hood, if I go with another set up on my nytro it will be a automotive style fogger system, with a nitrous regulator maybe boondockers which you can adjust down aroung 200-300 psi instead of a bottle heater.
 
I just figured out that I can fit my 3lb bottle in the nose and in the trunk. So, If anyone wants to have 6lbs, Buy 2 - boondocker 3lb aluminum bottles and mount one in the trunk and one in the nose.

Stoutner is that bottle zip tied in the nose with 1 strap? What mount did you use? Thanks

No, you take the regulator (2 bolts) out and move it to the back side of the bracket that it is bolted into. Then zip tie it on.

For the bottle, Boondocker provides you with a mounting bracket and clamps. The mounting bracket bolts where the top bolt of the voltage regulator was. I can upload a pic of the braket if you need???
 
Is it something that can be built or am I better off purchasing one? Thanks Stoutner PS the zip ties I see must be the bottle heater...
 
Stoutner I see in another post that you said a 4.0 carbon fiber will fit in the nose! Is it safe to assume that it would take a different bracket as well? Thanks
