What is the purpose of purging nitrous?

Yea - but with the N2O Focus, if you actually fill the tank with nitrous and install that last little hose to make the system functional, you void your warranty - Steve Saleen and his boys won't lift a finger to help you. Now I don't just mean your warranty from Saleen, I mean your warranty from Ford! And not just on the engine, but transmission and everything else!

And? He wanted to know of a car maker and I gave it to him... Never said anything about any warranty.
 
And nothing!
What I am saying is that it proves that superchargers and turbos are generally safer than nitrous.
Many car manufacturers incorporate superchargers and turbos into their vehicles, but 0 use nitrous AND include some sort of warranty.
He has a good point. Nobody offers nitrous as a factory option for reliable power.
Does that help you???

I'm sure there are many more reasons that that. It's a chemical, can't be purchased everywhere making the car area specific (live near a Nitrous Refiller), bottle pressure is dependent on temperature so if car is left in the direct sun... kaboom...

Nitrous IS!!!! is just reliable as a supercharger or turbocharger, given the person using it knows what he's doing. I have both a supercharged and nitrous car and have never had a problem with neither.

Simply put, Nitrous is JUST AS RELIABLE as a supercharger for an engine.

Manufacturers don't have it as a factory option or warrenty it because of the risk involved of storing a 1000psi, high pressure tank inside their car all the time.

Does that help you?? :D

Yes it does - the fact that the general public cannot safely handle nitrous in a vehicle is why I said what I said.
Nitrous may be 100% safe for you because you understand it, but you are not the general public...
Think about it - McDonalds was sued because some idiot lady said the coffee she bought was too hot and she burned herself. Now you see "caution - hot" warnings on any hot beverage you buy.
Do you really want this lady handling a nirous setup???

It's true that it wasn't mentioned, but shouldn't that be a given? Who wants a brand new car with no warranty? On my own from the moment that it's driven off the lot.....fuhgetabotit:notnice:

And I have to agree with aaron11272. Not everyone is aware of the dangers of using Nitrous Oxide in certain environments. And I live in Houston. Hell Time....I mean, Summer is right around the corner and it blazes like nothing else around here. All in all, boost is the breakfast of champions
