It's official as of yesterday, July 1 having nitrous oxide in your car is now illegal in Virginia. If you get caught with it your car gets impounded immediately and auctioned off shortly thereafter.

I know there's a couple more Virginians in this forum and a few from DC and Maryland. So this post is just to let you know.

Also, if anyone is traveling south in next few weeks to the beach and what not. You'll definitely be headed down US 29 to get there. Be careful on the bypass of Altavista and Gretna. They're changing the speed limit from 55 to 65 and it will be seriously enforced.

NOS is gay. Its the ultimate poser-gas in a bottle. If your car isnt fast, put NOS in it, then your car will temporarily go faster, then break down soon afterwards.

I am from Virginia and live in Virginia Beach.I swear dont you just love the Commonwealth?

They already suck at builing interstates I swear 64 is one big mess now you can not have NOS?

What about on the track?Like RIR?

What about on the track? Well, if you use NOS on the track, it shows you have a car that is outmatched with the competition. A good car doesnt have to use NOS to keep up with the competiton.

Look I do not use NOS ok.I am saying that I like to go to the track and I am sure a lot of people use NOS.This is not a challenge.And if you had been to Richmond Raceway or the strip you would see they dont need NOS.
Just a question THATS ALL ...... damn

I don't think so at all. I know that Nitrous Oxide isn't a permanent performance boost. Once you're outta juice, you're outta speed. However it's a very clever way to increase performance.

Pat, tell me the difference between a wet and dry system. What's a window kit? I'm willing to be you know absolutely nothing about 'NOS' other than the fact you push a button and 'blow up' your motor.

The truth is only IDIOTS blow up their motor or people who push the limits just a tad bit too far and break the camels back. Nitrous can be used safely in a car without damaging anything.

It works as an incredible performance boost in 3 ways:

-It's a fuel, it burns like woah
-It's cold as hell, thus reducing engine temps. I believe every 5-10º cooler = 1hp
-Because it's cold and because it's a fuel, you can pack the incoming air charge to the cyl much, much tigher, thus increasing the amount of combustion making it easier for the pistons to rock that crank.

The only negative aspects of it are that it's dangerous if you get into an accident with it. I always thought it was banned from street use so that's no biggie with me. You shouldn't have one in your car. I'll have to travel down to VA to the auctions to get a nice car for cheap. :D They'll prolly all be fagget ass Civics and Integras tho. They're the only ones who really NEED a 150shot.

I am in virginia right now it is true the Import racers are quite funny.CAuse at the drag strip there are like 4 rows filled with cars and thy get to have there ass handed to them ina bad way.There are some pretty fast ones there but they pull up next to some 9 sec cars.I think its real funny when they heat up there tires.How cute it is. But a lot of times and I mean a LOT of times ! The Imports like the CRX and civic just break down after trying to heat up the tires and are pushed off the track.Its a fun time to watch races though.

And let me know when you will be here I can get all the info you need on any auction and auction list for ya .I work in advertising for the largest automotive advertising agency in the world.And I have many in dealers in Virginia maybe even your state.So let me know.


That goes for everyone .If you need help locating a car I dont mind lending a hand.
You guys are pretty cool

Nitrous Oxide is the cheapest bang for your buck period.... and it's bad ass..

I don't know about other cars but I know on a stock 5.0 motor a 125hp is fine and doesn't put anymore ware on the motor then normal but once you up it.. your looking at problems without the right internals.

Don't knock nitrous.. it's a drug just like boost is and it's like saying a turbocharger or supercharger isn't fair... and yah the nitro balloons ownz all !

Also... the only down sides to it is :


explosive - meaning a back fire thru the carb or intake side rather then the exhoust usally results in a fried motor, hood and front end.. i've seen it and it's a sad site.. but that's why they have both wet and dry systems.. so you choose your death

They should outlaw stickers on cars..... and the extremly big wings but no outlaw Nitrous Oxide (naawws for you pat) which actually has a purpose and gives results for your money.

bottom line, stupid people kill everything for everyone... soo pat im gonna take a wild guess here and say that you've never been in a car that nutted the juice before have you.. no need to answer i already know.

Wow.......Pat you need to go read some books and learn a few things.

First of all "NOS" is a brand, not an all encompassing word to cover Nitrous Oxide (N20). You may as well call it Nawws and save us the time of wondering if you are stupid or not.

Secondly, it can be very safe and very efficient if used in the correct setting. Take for instance a well built LS1 with strong gaskets, forged pistons, free flowing heads, and a free flowing exhaust. This kind of engine can withstand the extra hp and stress associated with ANY major increase in power.

It is the punk-ass kids with NO OTHER modification to their high revving 4 cyl that slap on the cheapest, biggest system they can buy and blow their head clean off in a ball of fire and give N20 a bad name.

"Just boosts the car from 90mph to 110..."
You are nearly retarded......people use N20 to increase their acceleration not their top end. If your idiotic friend did open up his N20 to try and crank out a few more mph on his top side, then a 20mph gain is frickin good! Do you have any idea how much power it takes to propel a car over 20% faster than it's original top end was?!?!?!? You don't just get that from an intake....

I think this country gets more fucked up by the day, and it won't be long until people's cars are impounded all the time.............We need to start killing lawmakers, then the pigs who enforce these bullshit laws..........We lose more and more rights every day......we have officially lost our property rights in this example.......


Anyways, nitrous is ok by me, because it's a performance power adder. If it makes the car faster, and you win, then you win. So what if ricers have a 40 shot and call it "the big shot"? Anyone can use it, with varying results. It's not gay to have a power adder............It's not my choice, but it's a good option to have.

WTF does nos have to do with BIG WINGS? Did you even bother to READ what the kid said? He's saying that big wings are just as dangerous because they obstruct your vision when looking in the rear view. Stickers should get the boot too just for being gay.

I don't argue in favor of cavs using NOS.

However I do think it's pretty sweet to see a 950HP vette running that amount of power without nitrous. Just imagine if you gave it that extra little nudge to push it over to 1000hp. All of those working parts will benefit from a little juice to cool the parts off and have it run faster.

I agree with boostedpimp totally. If you're going to bitch about a bottle, bitch about turbos and SCers...

of course you 4banger faggots won't tho, because thats the only means you could make decent power. You'd be lost in a world of poor performance gains if you were relegated to only N/A engine mods. HEADS..er HEAD FOR A CIVIC? BAHAHAHAHAHAHA what's that? +2hp?

LOL you dumbfuck, nitrous isn't used to "increase speed from xxx to xxx", the car would get there without it, but slower. Nitrous has nothing to do with top speed unless you were at your last gear, and you needed more power to pull the car through the high gearing.........other than that, power is for acceleration, not top speed. What the fuck does naaaaaaawz have to do with increasing top speed? Seriously, I don't know if you're being dumb as a joke, or if you really are this bad. Holy shit man. :D :D :D

I think N20......(ahem, you still havent picked up on the fact that it IS N2O) is the greatest invention ever now that I really think about it.
1. For those of us with functioning brains and IQ's in the triple digits.....this means people other than you pat.......nitrous can be a great way to increase hp and give you that extra boost when you really actually need it. Plus it only occurs in short bursts and doesn't constantly wear on your engine.

2. The best part about it is that nitrous has become an effective moron eliminator. By this I mean that every idiot who doesn't know shit about cars hears about Nawwws and automatically puts it on their shit mobile.......then they blow their engine all to pieces and we have one less dumbass tearing up the city streets thinking he is fucking Vin Diesel.

Anything that gives me power and blows pat's engine apart is A OK in my book! ;)

Pat, tell me the difference between a wet and dry system. What's a window kit? I'm willing to be you know absolutely nothing about 'NOS' other than the fact you push a button and 'blow up' your motor.

The truth is only IDIOTS blow up their motor or people who push the limits just a tad bit too far and break the camels back. Nitrous can be used safely in a car without damaging anything.

It works as an incredible performance boost in 3 ways:

-It's a fuel, it burns like woah
-It's cold as hell, thus reducing engine temps. I believe every 5-10º cooler = 1hp
-Because it's cold and because it's a fuel, you can pack the incoming air charge to the cyl much, much tigher, thus increasing the amount of combustion making it easier for the pistons to rock that crank.

The only negative aspects of it are that it's dangerous if you get into an accident with it. I always thought it was banned from street use so that's no biggie with me. You shouldn't have one in your car. I'll have to travel down to VA to the auctions to get a nice car for cheap. :D They'll prolly all be fagget ass Civics and Integras tho. They're the only ones who really NEED a 150shot.


Don't mind me, I'm just jumping back on topic. Seems like you've done a little homework into nitrous, pretty dead on with most of it. The only thing is its not a fuel its an oxidizer. I think thats the biggest problem people have. They think they're just adding more fuel to their engine when in reality they're just burning the fuel better. The problem with nitrous comes when you don't have enough fuel and the engine runs lean. To get an idea of what happens next time you BBQ blow across the coals and notice how they glow red hot. Same thing happens when you don't have enough fuel. Pistons burn, valves fry, rings crisp, engines are destroyed. Also fueling (no pun intended) the problem is people using blanket statements like "A V6 can handle a 75 shot with no problem." Well yes, generally the block and pistons are built to handle that. But if you have a dirty fuel injector or fuel filter a 50 shot could fry your engine. I don't have the stats but I'm sure you'll probably find more people with burnt rings than thrown rods.

I use nitrous in my car and its got its good and bad points. Back before I got piston deep into building my engine I used the simple Zex dry system. Cheapest around and I just wanted an entry level system anyway. With the supercharger pushing about 10psi I ran 5+ full bottles through it. About 3 weeks after the last bottle I pulled the engine apart and noticed NO hot spot damage points from nitrous use. The rings were still in great shape, as in they still had a long way to clearing the cylinder wall. I plan on using nitrous again only this time with a wet system, venom has a nice direct port system. The reason I want to use it again is because most of my parts were researched and taken from other engines or flat out custom. That crap takes a lot of money. When you're at the end of a buildup and down to slim pickings deciding between a $4,500 stroker or a $1,400 nitrous system was an easy pick. Especially seeing as I don't need the power all the time.

To directly address the topic....I think its dumb they're flat out outlawing it. I remember a few states had a thing where if the bottle was turned on and you're on the street you're in trouble. Lots of people use daily cars at the track with a little nitrous, its annoying to have to pull your bottle out and replace it every time you go. Plus you loose some nitrous everytime you disconnect your hose. Just annoying I guess. Its funny though I think they're focused on the little ricers with nothing but nitrous. I bet their thinking that if you take the only performance enhancement they have away they'll know their car is slow and not want to race on the street, hahaha. ahhh good stuff.
