How long does a bottle last, in general. Obviously it could vary, but say it was set for WOT only between 3500-7000 and drove spiritively but not like a total a**hole.

Really depends on your jetting and how much is flowing. Guestimate would be around ten 1/4 mile pulls out of a 10lb bottle.

Found the answer.... In other words, NOT LONG lol

Q. How long will a bottle of nitrous last?
A. That depends on the level of power being produced. The formula for calculating your nitrous usage is: 0.8 lbs N2O X 10 seconds = 100 horsepower. I.E. If your system is jetted for 100 horsepower it will use 0.8 lbs of nitrous for every 10 seconds of usage.

**** it'd be more economical to run race gas all the time instead

Are you planning on filling yours up at the hospital?

Nah, big mother bottle in the garage with filling pump. Gas company delivers a new one when that is empty. Easy peasy and a lot easier on the wallet.

You gotta remember, you are not spraying for a very long periods of time, stuff starts breaking when you do that lol.

Was just going by NE website which said expect 3.50-5.00/lb.. I assume it will vary geographically just like fuel or anything else.

A buck a pound in bulk and I'd happily consider juicing mine too!
