nitrous oxide systemes - how does it work ?
All combution engines need oxygen. But how do get more oxygen into a running
engine ? Well, there is a way NITROUS OXIDE [N20] is heated by the aftermarket
systeme and released into the engine. When nitrous oxide is heated to about 570
degrees F (~300C), it splits into oxygen.
