if the pressure is low you will get less n2o and you'[re still getting the same amount of fuel , you'll lose power on both ends (less n2o, and a rich a/f ratio)

but it could be other things ... how much timing did you pull out, how well was it tuned before hand ...etc

I have a doubt

I own a 10lbs NOS bottle, the pressure gauge reads up to 1500PSI, and the relieve-pressure valve opens at 3000PSI. What is the maxium safe pressure? Because if you heat the botle, the pressure will raise

Thnks!

Its almost a MUST to have a press. gauge for nitrous. Most systems are designed to be used between 1050 and 900 psi! If you're under those numbers then you need a bottle heater. If you go over then you have a chance of leaning out and kaboom.

Time to buy my direct port kit :p
