When to Use Nitrous?

Nitrous oxide is an oxidizer, and you need to add fuel with the added oxygen to get power. The mixture of fuel and oxygen needs to be pretty close to ideal so that the mixture can ignite at the right time and the right temperature. Dry nitrous systems do not add that fuel and expect the engine to do it automatically.

When should you activate nitrous?

Never consider activating the system unless the engine is responding normally without nitrous. When nitrous is injected, the engine should respond as follows, the rpm should increase rapidly and the exhaust note should get louder.

When should NOS be used?

Nitrous oxide is a colourless gas that is commonly used for sedation and pain relief, but is also used by people to feel intoxicated or high. It is commonly used by dentists and medical professionals to sedate patients undergoing minor medical procedures.
