and wear your gear!

Call in dead. They love that.

you also have to remember it was 1981 dude. "SuperBike" meant anything with over 60 hp.

holy shit this is funny, quote from Car Craft magazine! We hate to give any credit here, but the success of the bafflingly popular movie The Fast and the Furious has driven sales of "noss" through the roof. That's been a good thing for everybody who makes nitrous kits, because the huge profits they reap from fools who want to blow the intake welds on their Hondas means more cash in the coffers to develop and market high-quality, low-cost plate and fogger systems for real musclecars like ours. So there. Now you've got at least one positive thing to say about the import scene.

gas condenses under pressure, N2O is under enough pressure in the bottle to keep it in liquid form. The pickup tube is in the liquid, and it stays under enough pressure to keep it liquid up untill the jet. then it sprays out, evaporates, and turns into a gas. Heating it causes a small amount of the liquid to evaporate and increase the pressure in the cylinder, by increasing the amount of gaseous N2O on top of the liquid N2O, this is the driving force behind the liquid when you push the button. The blanket is there to keep the bottle warm really, and usually under that is a thin plastic heater wrapped around the bottle. the blanket keeps the bottle warm so your pressure stays consistant through out the run, without having to heat the bottle. A big deal on full race cars that don't run alternators, and heat it with an outside power source in the pit lanes.

Because the lines arn't that huge that they'll affect the over all pressure. Besides how are you supposed to know what the pressure is? it's not open to the atmosphere, just to the solenoid. it'll still build pressure just fine. How do you tell that their not getting overpressure? a bottle @ about 82 degrees is at 1000psi, depending on fill volume. It's very unsafe to heat a bottle without a pressure gauge. Even at that, my friends and I had F-bodies and we'd keep our bottles in the spare tire wells. we went into a resturant for lunch and when we came out my friend had to purge off about a 1/4 bottle because just sitting in the sun had upped the pressure to almost 2k psi! but if you don't have a gauge you wouldn't know this. Ever see a Nitrous bottle explode? in a Scion? Are you dropping an LSx into it?

shit, I went through 2-3 10 lb bottles a weekend. I'd burn at least one at the track friday, more like 1.5, then saturday after work I'd run up to Youngstown Oxygen and refill it/them then head out to the main drag saturday night and burn up another one. I'd turn it on when I pulled out of the garage, was up to temp/pressure by the time I got out, and I'd waste another bottle screwing around on the street (bad I know)

no, it had to be this; http://www.turbomotorcycles.org/TMIOA/Bike_Yamaha_XJ650.html I KNOW it was an inline 4, I saw all the turbo badges, and looked at the front of the motor seeing nothing but a traditional I4 and header. after I talked to him he said the turbo was under the bike by the swingarm, and it was def a SECA. I told him about the site, hopefully hell make an appearance. yeah, after looking at a few moe pics, it was def the Yammi

thats pretty popular with the Miatas actually, 5.0 and 8.8 rear conversion. they actually make it so you keep the IRS too.

no its an inline 4, had a traditional header, turbo mounted by the swingarm. It was a SECA 500 I believe, Honda.

SOLD!!! I'll take it! Not really, I just wanted to know what it felt like to buy a $17k Ducati

Never killed anyone to throw an offer out! plus those are nice bikes, I had one!

My name is Trapper. It's legal, it's on my birth certificate. I do not hunt, and I especially don't trap. Sorry.

I was thinking sulfuric acid, but sugar water is cool too.

every political discussion on EVERY board ends in disaster.

it was securely attached to the tail section in the picture Satan (name change pending) posted up. Ask if he's happy with the protection his helmet offered, or if he felt it could have done better. obviously it didn't stop the bike from being totaled. so I would put negative feed back on the helmet. didn't work as expected, bike ended up being totaled

The best is gonna be when they start using lighters too see what their doing I predict a rash of burning/exploding cars, and dead fuel thieves :yesnod:

thats what I was thinkin

don't get too excited, ever watch a scary movie? the evil bitch never dies the first time around!

NM that didn't work...

I've always heard of these bikes, but yesterday I actually saw one! a REALLY nice one too boot! 1982 with 12k miles on it! It was pretty interesting too see, the turbo is mounted in the back, by the swing arm. Just thougth I'd share, wish I could have got a few pics

and jail for tax evasion is jail for tax evasion J/K if it's your first offence you'll probably get a slap on the wrist.

sorry, it should be WHO TF is that...

WTF is that?
