I could be wrong, but I thought the chemical equation was one N atom and 2 O atoms... I always thought it was sorta like "extra oxygen" that makes it so much fun. Anyone want to clarify? Now that Chad's brought this to my attention...I feel like an idiot.


Nope...It is N20...2 Parts Nitrogen 1 Oxygen....NO2 would be a piston melting disaster.

Nitrous is not an "added" fuel or oxygen. Nitrous simply allows the fuel you already have to burn faster and more efficent. I have been reading this book by SA about nitrous. I suggest anyone interested in nitrous read it. I know a lot about the use and install of n2o but learned a lot reading this!
