Nitrous Storage
I am getting my bottle soon and was wondering how you guys that spray store your bottles when not racing?
My parents have seen/heard of the fast and the furious nonsense about nitrous blowing up in a cloud of green flames, so any good tips for convincing them otherwise?

You do know that N20 is heavier than air correct? If you dump it in a room it will displace the air and you will die.

Nitrous has more oxygen then the air u breath, thats y it makes more power. so he wont die from lack of oxygen, but breathing it is not good lol

take out your spare tire, place it in there and make a weep hole for the oxygen to sink down and evacute itself through.
n20 brakes down during the combustion cycle and releases oxygen allowing you to burn more fuel during combustion the nitrogen just acts as an intercooling effect.
But that write-up that you have actually is medical grade n20. our n20 also has sulfur dioxide in it.
Just get something to monitor bottle pressure

a bottle isnt going to explode. They will leak before the explode. You are supposed to keep a bottle above room temperature anyway

this is true, the "burst disk" will burst and the bottle will purge itself.....just keep it in a corner or in the closet when its not in the car, it doesnt need to be cool but you should attempt to not put it somewhere were the sun will bake it half the day...even for the simple fact that heating and cooling will mess with bottle pressure

you want your bottle to be around 1000 PSI. Thank you for the name couldnt think of the burst disk has a pressure rating somewhere around 1100psi. . . and if people are using bottle warmers at tracks during the summer to get there high 9oo PSI i think you will be fine keeping it in the trunk without one on it.
i should of said you want it around that pressure during use.

There honeslty is very little to worry about with nitrous. If it was so dangerous it wouldnt be so readily available.
Just show them this thread and if they have any other questions just keep asking. If it makes them feel better empty the bottle before you store it everytime. This way pressures will never be reached to burst and leak. If they think having a n20 bottle in the house tell them about how a house got moved 4 feet off the foundation because two brother were using carb cleaner in the basement with no ventilation and ignited (believed to be because of the pilot light). And that product comes in a little can you can pick up everywhere. Everything has its dangers. Prboably more **** in the kitchen you should worry about then a n20 bottle that is built to prevent catostrophic failure
