This post is more of a kill story. Im sure this is the power we VR6 owners look for. So here goes:
Last night, I went driving around just to test out my nitrous system some more. From afar, I notice a BMW following me on this 1-lane road. The 1-lane road turns into 2.. then 3 about another mile or so. He/she speeds up past me, and I thought Ill back off. Then, they slow down... revving their motor on me. I thought to myself then "heh, damn beemer". To my surprise it wasnt a 325, but a 330 coupe. But they time, the revving got straight to me. I clicked on my bottle, dropped to 2nd gear, and gassed it. We were side by side, just before I hit 3rd gear. By 3rd, I was pulling on them. Not by a whole lot, just a 1/4 car length. We ended up shutting down around 4th gear.. about 100 mph. He/she didnt even stop to pull over, they just kept going on their way.
On my way home, I thought .. "damn, not bad.. had a good 1/2 car length on him towards the end." The grin on my face stayed on me till I got home. Heh, showed him/her whatsup.

** I do not recommend street racing. Take it from me, a guy that got 2 12-point tickets underage. But when a road goes straight for 15 miles, and their isnt any traffic and it isnt a residence area... its ok to give your car a little push

Re: VR6 - On the bottle! (1BadAzzVR6)

cool! power is gooooooooood...
A few questions on your install:
what kinda shot (same as above
)?, wet/dry?, how much did it cost?
Also, from a nitrous newbie, how long does a bottle last (at full blast)? and how much does a refill cost?

Running a 50 shot in a 10lb bottle should yeild about 2min30sec (give or take some) accroding to the NOS (the company) manual my buddy has.

Nice. You know, kill stories always get locked. Why is that? If there's something wrong with a kill story in this forum, lets have a "kill forum".
