What's that little bottle that's plugged into the air filter?

Thats what I thought... but how does it work?
I dont see where you're getting the extra fuel into the carb for the nitrous to burn???

Gasoline requires enormous amounts of oxygen from the air.
Rather than pump air to move more of it into the engine,
nitrous chills the air, making it much denser and greatly increasing the amount of oxygen by volume - the denser the air, the closer together its molecules, the more oxygen one has available. I rarely use it...it's mainly for looks!!

Re: Redb's Greenline "S T R T E T C H"
Nitrous doesn't work by only "chilling the air", the nitrous itself puts extra oxygen in the cylinder...
If you don't add more fuel, you will have a very lean mixture & hurt the engine.

Re: Redb's Greenline "S T R T E T C H"
Okay... I just did some reading on nitrous... Shooting just nitrous into the intake manifold is called "Dry injection".
It goes on to say, you have to be very conservative with it because the nitrous used without adding extra fuel (wet injection) causes a very lean condition and can blow your engine...
It seems we're both right... be careful with that stuff, don't blow the engine!
