nothing to do with turbo............
 

ok,i was just reading about the "electric turbo" and just had a brain storm..........we all know how flamible pure
oxigen is.well what happening if instead of a "50 shot" of nos ,we used pure o2
what would happen?could someone make it work?

just want to hear some thoughts!

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

i like your thinking. i don't see why it wouldn't work but i don't think it would be as effective as nos and probably more expensive to buy the gas

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

yea dude..go try that..it will blow the ---- out of your motor. pure oxygen is veryyyy combustable. don't start thinking of stuff llike that

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

your car would run bloody rich and ------- blowup.

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

just take pictures and post them so others can learn from your mistake. j/k

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

nawwwwws

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

actually the only reason people use NO2 is because it is tons cheaper than pure oxygen and No2 is much more common for other things like for instance paintball guns. I know my brother and his freinds can fill their gun tanks up easy.

SO yes you could inject pure oxygen but no you would not want o use a 50 shot as that would be equal to a much bigger NOS shot. But you are gonna pay out your ass to get the O2 tank filled assuming you can get a tank. My freind gets his huge NOS tank filled for 40 bucks..not gonna do that with oxygen unless you have mad connections

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

heh your thinking Co2,,.. if they used No2 in paintall guns then every kid would be running around laughing and feeling numb.. No2 is laughing gas :)

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

no Co2 is for newby guns most of the nice guns uses Nitrous oxide...trust me on this one you can look it up.

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

Hey, gunpowder is really combustible right?!??

how about you run a gunpowder induction kit,
have it injected into your intake stream.

post pics after you try it out.


just uhh... wear some protection... and steer clear, hehe

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

if you put pure oxygen into your engine it would misfire and blow the ---- up!!!! My firend did that with one of those ATV 4 wheelie things for fun. He was then taken to the hospital to get 68 stiches on his right leg. But if you want to try it then be my guest.

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

Sorry but your wrong but your on the right track...they use nitrogen not nitrous oxide. Nitrogen setups are much better than Co2 but that doesnt mean that co2 is for newbies. Nitrogen is just more consistant and works much better in the winter unlike Co2...

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

The thing with pure oxygen is..you will have to inject really small amounts of it and have a lot of fuel dumped in or you are going to run lean.
And the thing is the oxygen will react to metal really fast when there is high temperature...so it will react to your aluminum intake manifold before it gets to the combustion chamber plus it will ignite the fuel to early if your engine is gonna be at running temperature

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

holy ---- im surprised some of you idiots havent killed yourselves... do any of you have any education at all?
PURE OXYGEN IS EXTREMELY VOLATILE
the reason people use nitrous (n2o) is because the nitrogen calms things down a bit and keeps everything under control, the nitrogen is innert.
if you put pure oxygen into your combustion chamber mixed with fuel you wont know when it will explode and when it does explode it will be very violent.
::)
(i am not impressed with you guys, how old are you people? get a damn education)

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

no dude thats compressed air or nitrogen for the expensive guns not nitrous .. i have a compressed air tank for my gun.

n20 is less of an oxidizer than pure oxygen. you could do it but you would have to dump mad fuel in there or you will lean out and grenade.

nitrous and oxygen are not flammible they are oxidizers they just make other things burn much faster. oxygen would actually work better than nitrous if you could keep it from leaning out and exploding

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

the nice guns use compressed air, last time i checked, i didnt fill up on nitrous oxide

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

it was just a "stoned" thought ..i wasn't really gona pump pure o2 into my motor

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

ttry out some toulene and get the Nawzzz hehehehe

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

oh well i was wrong but i knew my brother used some tank starting with an N.. Oh and your right there are good guns that run co2 but if i remeber correctly most of the tournament gus use the N stuff Nitrogen or whatever.

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

There are a few reasons why pure oxygen isn't used:

1) It is too damn expensive

2) In the case of an accident, (your car starting on fire) the oxygen tank would surely ensure you (and anyone trying to put the fire out) certain death due to it's ability to feed the fire and increase the burning temperature to insane levels (oxy-acetalyne torch.. cutting torch!)

3) It would need to be injected much more precisely with much more danger to your motor in case of a short fuel supply.

4) The N in NO2 (nitrogen) acts as a burn stabalizer- It helps to control the rate at which the burn occurs, the temperature, and prevent detonation.

These 4 reasons are THE reasons why you don't inject pure oxygen into your motor. If someone actually took the time to do the calculations and come up with an oxygen injection system- Rest assured; It would work- But it just isn't practical-- Due to all of the above.
IMO, stick with turbos anyways. It's like a FREE whatever shot of nitrous (no bottles to fill) whenever you want it. ;D

...Now you know- And knowing is HALF the battle!

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

Just remove your intake filter, eat a can of beans and rip ass into the pipe...

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

ok listen here it goes No2 is an inert gas but inert gases doesnt mean itis not flamable it just means that there is a smaller chance of it catching fire and O2 is a dump idea but i do unstand where this guy is coming from maybe shooting the air not compressed amounts of oxygen but air through the in take tube to the throttle body maybe that ws the idea, dont know, but if it is done like that the map sensor would have to much pressure on it to not set a fault in the ECU.... pushing air would be the right idea like NOS just forcing the air to get cooler but oxygen would not be that cold to get that far on the track or street,,,, NOS great, O2 great but if it is not pure and compressed...

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

I have never heard anyone sound that smart, with that bad of grammer. Hey THRESHOLD, was that answer one big misspelled sentence or were the periods and capitol letters "invisible"? ???

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

um, actually, "inert" means it doesn't react with anything at all. no fire. no bubbles. no mad scientist laugh, no clown suit... well, you get the idea. nitrous oxide is about as far from inert as you can get. this is why gases like argon (which actually IS inert) are used in welding- it acts as a shield to prevent air from coming in contact with the weld and contaminating it by reacting with the metal at high temperature.

Re:nothing to do with turbo............
 

There was one guy back in the sixties that played with pure oxygen injection on a Mustang, it went crazy fast, like nine seconds flat on a stock engine, but NHRA banned him from the track for using it, to dangerous. I dont remember all the facts but I do remember reading the story in a book about wierd car stuff, like TV Tommy Ivos four engine dragster and the Hemi under glass car, any one ever seen that thing? A rear engine Baracuda with a 426 Hemi, it did wheel stands the length of the track.
