Well I am pulling out all the stops before this drag on Sunday. I was out testing last night and caught a glimpse of some of my competition, yeah I'm a dead man. Now I am dead serious about this, it will be plumbed in tonight, I need every shaky lame horse I can squeeze out of this RB20. How much horsepower do we think firing a can of whipped cream tip up so it's just the Nitrous popellant would throw at the motor, 5-10hp?I already have my R134 spray bar set up in front of my intercooler, hopefully that should make my charge air crazy cold but we'll see.

Damn, got a refrigerator as an IC! I dont think the Whippped cream could do anything, you think they put nitrous in that?

Just rig up a nitrous kit quick. There's some directions on the net somewhere of how to hook up nitrous to a rental neon and take it off without them knowing it. You could probably apply that to the skyline somehow

the propellant in whipped cream is Nitrous Oxide, I have no idea how much or at what pressure. I figure leave the can out in the sun so it gets real warm, plumb a vacuum hose to the intake and after I launch hit my Dairy Queen dry nitrous! After the race sundaes for every one!:)

I wonder if you can do that without squirting whipped cream into your intake manifold. Although, if it went in there, then you'd also have carmel for a topping for the sundaes afterwards.

Damn, i have a few moslty empty bottles in the fridge, is the stuff medical grade? whoah this could be fun!

I do believe "Whippets" are n20. These are silver canisters sold as whipped cream chargers to restaurants. There are also mini-nitorus kits for cars that use these. I've seen them on ebay before.

Here's an example ebay item for the canisters:http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISA...14310

Those look just like the canisters that air powered pellet guns use, but I think those are CO2, not N20.

OMG! i have those bad boy canisters, like 40 of them too, laughing gas anyone?

Can anyone confirm that this stuff has no sulfur?

Even if I sucked whipped cream into the engine I think the 900 degree cylinder temperature, explosions and fuel wuold take care of it and my exhaust would smell nice too!It has to be medical grade, it's in food! Whippets seem to indicate it is strong enough to give you a buzz so it has to give me something when I shoot it into the engine. I'll bring a can when I throw Thumper on a dyno.

Let us know how it goes. For real...I think it's a not-so-bad idea.

thats what i was thinking, but you never know...

Post by **audtatious** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 3:34 pm

The ones in the ebay item don't have sulfer since they are for making whipped cream and sulfer would make it pretty nasty indeed. They are definately N20. Druggies use these to get high too :rolleyes

I'll see if I can find a site listing the "kit" and post it up.

Post by **audtatious** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 3:34 pm

Website WAS nitrousmini.com, but it is among the dead now.

From what I remember of the "kit", it came with a basketball needle, tubing, and some gadget to dispense the nitrous. The needle was simply inserted prior to the MAF and sometime during a "run", the contents of the container was injected.

Don't know anything about how much boost (if any) it really gave.

have you tried a water injection system on ol' thumper?

Post by **lessthanjakejohn** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 3:34 pm

You could get like a winch and crush the cartridge

I'm not squirting water into my engine, alcohol maybe. What is really killing me though is these cracked coils. I have quite a spark storm around them. I have a high speed misfire because of the spark energy I'm losing. If I knew where to get some dipgrip round here I would dunk the coils and try to seal them up but I don't. Tonight I will mummify them with electrical tape and close down the gaps a little on the plugs.

LOL dip grip... if only you had a Kmart or sears..

Post by **themadscientist** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 3:34 pm

well that seems like a great way to insulate wounded coils. I don't have a K-mart though so looks like it's coing to be electrical tape.

doode, my friend got high on whip cream, he was ****ED!!!!!

lol!! I think you need to do that, if anything you can get a bottle and fill it with N20, like an oxygen bottle, eh? Then make your own valving system to dump it in there, who needs pills, right? =)

we can always next day air you some parts from over the water if you need them =)

When Thumper is sold and I finish my garage I will be plumbing boost and nitrous into Damien, whatever engine it gets. I just won't invest good money into a car I am trying to sell.

Post by **lessthanjakejohn** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 3:34 pm

Which car is damien, the R30? 180sx?

Post by **sultan** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 3:34 pm
