You know you bought about $10 wort of stuff from a hardware store. Seriously check Lowe's you got took. I'm not dumping on you, I've seem this going around for a while.
To hook it up though you have to tap your manifold just like setting up a boost bottle. The run the tubing to where you want to mount the trigger/ tube carrier what ever you wanna call it, mount everything and thats it.
You only get like a 2 second boost on nitrous. If you plan on using it very much you also need to consider getting heavy duty/ high performance head & cylinder or your liable to blow you engine or piston rings.

Its not "NOS" brand name, its nitrous oxide tubes. You walk into Lowes & ask for "NOS" get it on tape, I wanna see it. Im just messin with you.
They sell them different places they are used for like ice cream machines & some other crap. If you dont find them at you local hardware or autoparts try the local coke or soda bottling plac, or like a beer distributor. The look the same as the CO2 tubes used in BB guns. No CO2 will not work. I've seen the trigger part at a hardware or auto store I forget which but I've seen them on the shelf. It was for using the CO2 tubes for like a mini airgun or something.

The tubes? No I dont beleive you can buy them online because they are a compressed gas cylinder. A little local searching and you can find them no problem.

hi, I also have this kit (although it's a little different and uses a valve stem extender which slightly limits the nitrous flow and not the straight through brass fittings) and have used about 20 nitrous bottles. I haven't had any problems so far, but I was curious about what blew on your engine? I'm definitely considering not using nitrous again until I get the 49 cc Headstrong Power Package. How many shots did you get before blowing it? Also, how fast were you going when you shot the nitrous? Just curious. Thanks.
