I was just wondering if it is safe to install the Nitrous bottle behind the rear passenger seat. Are there any risks? I'm going to install my N20 this weekend and it just came to my mind because of the ease of opening it.
I believe the NO used in the dentists office is of medical grade. My basic understanding is that th impurities have been removed. Taking some "hits" from an NOS bottle would cause some serious harm, since it is not of medical quality.Michael Yount said:Keep in mind that this is the same stuff is used in the dentist's office as an anesthetic agent. It's odorless and colorless. A leak in the enclosed passenger compartment could be fun -- right up until it was fatal for you and others. Nitrous in the passenger compartment is a bad idea. Find/make the room elsewhere.
Yep. They add it to keep people from just going and buying it just to have fun. You can use medical grade gas as it work just the same in the car but you will not be able to buy it unless you have a license.artus70 said:tunedin is right! Well for at least around here.About 10 or so years ago they added sulfur and it has no performance advantages....it burns your throat and will make you vomit, from what I was told this was done so you'de know this was a leak and to keep idiots from inhaleing it......yes when I was a teenager I was one of those idiots. My friends were all into whip its and my father had nitrous for his car....over time we did the enire bottle, I went to refill it and the first hit I took, I thought I was gonna die. I had to admit to my father what I did cause I though I would need to go to the hospital.....he laughed his @$$ off.
Didn't intend to imply there weren't differences between medical grade nitrous and the stuff that goes in the bottle for the car; just to point out, it affects brain function, and it's not a good idea to have it in an enclosed passenger compartment regardless of whether you can detect the leak or not.
