Default Squirting stuff.

Ive heard it all. NOS, Propane turbos and pretty much squirting anything that helps.

But one idea that has really fasinated me ever since I got a tank of o2 is why not oxygen.

What are your guys thoughts.
We use NOS cause its got O2 right.

What if I where to just squirt some O2 into the manifolds. Shouldnt it work just as well.

But the thing with N20 is that its boiling point is really really low.... so it actually cools the air charge down...

Using medical grade O2 isnt a bad idea... ive never tried it... considered it once... but didnt know ho to go about it.... i mean really there is way more ------- O2 concentration in the medical O2 then the atmosphere

try it and let us know what happend

introducing a highly explosive force in a combusion reaction is not a good idea. It goes boom. Nitrous oxide is not flammable by itself which makes it more stable

Yeah oxegen by itself isnt a good idea. There is a reason N2o is used and not just O2. Nitrogen has great cooling properties so that when the oxygen ignites it is kept cool by the nitrogen content. Bleeahhhhtch!!

Direct port O2 setup might work out, probably TOO well though. a bottle would last you a god damn year though.

I actually had a dumbass buddy take an air duster, rub a hose from the nozzle into the intake, and pull the trigger while going down the dragstrip! it actually hit harder than his 50 shot! It didn't seem to hurt it but I haven't really talked to him in a while and I try to keep his crazy *** away from my car :P

o2 is more volitle. a shot of o2 would more then likly cause a melt down, because you couldn't keep it cool.
