Default nitrous question

how long on average does your full bottle last, and how much is a refill? nos is definately cheaper than a turbo and all the stuff needed to safely run a turbo, and i was wondering how much it would cost me to run on nitrous to help me finalize my decision between the two.

nos setup is around 600 bucks $2.25 a pound to fill up the bottle. Usually give you about 15 good full runs.

$2.25 per/lb. is cheap. Most people out here in N. Ca are paying anywhere from $3.50 to $4.50 per/lb.

back in the days when Jerry Garcia was alive we used to go to the dead concerts and sell Nos balloons to the hippies we got an industrial bottle rented and filled from a welding supply comany for 50 CAD, this was medical grade stuff too...
ah how I miss those days.

@ 75 shot on a ZEX setup I get 10-11 consistant passes before pressure falls off.

Also paying under $1 per pound for my fills. Yes I'm using the PC stuff, Nytrous+ with 100 ppm odorant.
