I am new to this forum and this is my first post. I just bought a blaster a couple weeks ago and it is bone stock. My plans are to add a ton of mods. Today I was browsing on eBay and came across a nitrous kit. I was wondering what everyone's thoughts are about adding this to my list. Any information anyone could give me would be greatly appreciated so I can weigh the pros and cons before i make my decision.
Nitrous Oxide

- Start date
Honestly I don't know if I would ever even push the "happy" button. I think I'm interested in it just to say I have it and to know it's there if I wanted to use it. How much faster does it make you go?
I Don't see how it would work on a Blaster. You have to add extra fuel with the NOS or you will run lean and go boom.
K I S S
KEEP
IT
STUPID
SIMPLE
I:I Battery, DC conversion, selenoids, fuel pump etc, and last but not least, tuning.
Start a pole: Who on this forum uses nitrous on a 2s, more specifically a Blaster
Pics or vid of carnage is more than mandatory I:I

It has a line that hooks directly to your intake so when you push the button it sprays in with your fuel. It does say in the description that you have to increase your jets cause the nitrous sucks up all the oxygen making the mixture lean. The only downfall is you are always running rich unless you use it.
not even close.... u need a very small battery that runs a small fuel pump that feeds a gas solenoid that sprays fuel and nitrous in the intake thru a fogger nozzle
The NOS comes in a pressurized bottle that is 16 ml. When you push the button it punctures the bottle and it sprays until the bottle is empty. It comes with 5 bottles and new bottles are 25 bucks for 10 or 50 bucks for 25.
search ebay for "sneaky pete nitrous"
i've seen them on there before
edit, here ya go................

Well let's go over a few things... Normal performance modifications enhance displacement, crankshaft torque (or both) or volumetric efficiency. Pipes, porting, head mods, big bore kits, stroker cranks.... all do the same thing to varying degrees.
Nitrous oxide is a little different in respect that it's only "on" part time. It is an extreme oxidizer stored as a liquid under a usable pressure that vaporizes into a gas at a usable pressure. The oxygen in the gas is relatively unstable and the nitrogen acts as a "buffer" to the flame front getting TOO hot and burning up pistons or crankshafts TOO fast....
Generally the tanks are plumbed so that the tank outgasses and feeds, under relatively high pressure, a solenoid. A manual valve can also work well but is not as quickly "throttleable".
The trouble with nitrous oxide is matching oxidizer flow and fuel demand..... With modifications which are "on" all the time, it's relatively easy.... you jet the carburetor according to the needs of the engine to compensate. Generally aftermarket pipes and removing the airbox require a subsequent main jet increase of about 50-70 numbers (230 to 280-300).
Blaster's don't come with a fuel pump from the factory. They rely on a gravity only system. That system doesn't work well to create enough pressure to mix fuel with the nitrous oxide output.

the only thing that hokey setup will do is blow your motor up
i'll second that motion,
nos does not contain oxygen in any way or form inside the bottle what iot does do is create an
atmosphere to burn lots more oxygen hence the reason it makes more power but the oxygen alone will not work without extra gas like u said
What?!?! The chemical compound for nitrous OXIDE is N2O. It's a weak chemical bond between the nitrogen and oxygen atom and under heat (and specifically in the presence of fuel) the molecule breaks apart and releases the nitrogen (as a flame temperature buffer) and oxygen (as an oxidizer).
For someone who's used it on every drag car they've ever setup AND some unnamed blaster, you would think you'd at least know HOW it works....
Nitrous oxide, commonly known as laughing gas or sweet air,[1] is a chemical compound with the formula N2O. It is an oxide of nitrogen. At room temperature, it is a colorless non-flammable gas, with a slightly sweet odor and taste. It is used in surgery and dentistry for its anesthetic and analgesic effects. It is known as "laughing gas" due to the euphoric effects of inhaling it, a property that has led to its recreational use as a dissociative anesthetic. It is also used as an oxidizer in rocketry and in motor racing to increase the power output of engines. At elevated temperatures, nitrous oxide is a powerful oxidizer similar to molecular oxygen.
Nitrous oxide gives rise to NO (nitric oxide) on reaction with oxygen atoms, and this NO in turn reacts with ozone. As a result, it is the main naturally occurring regulator of stratospheric ozone. It is also a major greenhouse gas and air pollutant. Considered over a 100-year period, it has 298 times more impact 'per unit weight' (Global warming potential) than carbon dioxide
