A question on nitrous fuel setups. 1 Is a 1 gal fuel cell in the front of the car big enough and how many passes can you get or should it be refilled after each pass? 2 Are any of you guys running a fuel pressure safety switch on your system?3 Do i need an extra fuel filter and a return line or if i'm running 6-7lbs of pressure do I need to run a return line? Does anyone have any pics of your nitrous systems and how they're setup? Thanks for any help!

a one gallon cell is big enough for a few passes i always topped mine off after it hit the halfway mark (on a 250 hit i got like 5 passes )..

i have never run a fuel saftey switch ..

i ran a fuel filter (cheapie like $50 ) inline but i dont think you have too if you fill the cell through a filtered funnel ..(jmop.. i wound up not using one on later settups )

i ran a mallory 140 pump with a dead head holly regulator never a return ..

many will have different opinions on this. i don't have the return line style regulator so the pressure spikes until the system is activated. this is not necessarily a bad thing. i think there was a long discussion on YB about this.

Thanks for the info! I'm only gonna run a 100 shot for now. The car is somewhat setup for N2o, convertor and rear gears. Just wanna make sure I got everything right before I go out and play with it. Thanks Wagondude
