hey, i was wondering

[newrider3]

They make CO2 kits for cars, it looks just like a nitrous bottle. You hook it up so it sprays on the intake or the intercooler to give a denser charge.

 

[oscaryu1]

Engines need AIR, GAS, COMPRESSION, and SPARK to run. Engines don't like carbon dioxide.

You mean people have modified CO2 injectors.

There we go. Good product!

 

[newrider3]

No, it sprays ON the intake, not IN it.
Like this.

 

[ed1380]

it just cools the intake tube/carb

but that thing oscaryu1 posted looks badass

Those little nos shot kits are sweet, if I hated my moped I would install one.

 

[oscaryu1]

I have one currently. A few days later going to Harbor Freight, I found out it was a modified CO2 tire thingie

On the intake? ... It'll still get sucked in somehow. Either way, a bucket of ice could do the same thing.

 

[oscaryu1]

Oh, if yall want to know more about those No2 kits, go on eBay and type in go kart nitrous kit. $39 a kit. Great deal!

 

[sayre315]

so the co2 sprays on the carb, lowering the fuel temp. and making more speed?

Sort of, it cools down the air making it denser which allows you to pack more oxygen in there along with the added fuel to make up for it.

but it does spray onto the carb, correct?

or does it aim on the air intake?

I know an engine running on alcohol will make the air intake ice cold with no co2 thingys.

See the blue pipe after the carb? That's where you would want the co2.

 

[oscaryu1]

Yeah, but if he's running a stock motor, then he won't have one of those. That's an adaptor for a Mikuni. The only thing near that at a lower price is a Tillotson carburetor adaptor. Even then, it's $50 on eBay.

Alcohol also does something to the fuel tanks... am I correct? Wears them down and eventually breaks or does something bad to em...

If you run alky you have to flush the carb and tank with gas when you're done racing or else it corrodes the gas tank, carburetor and fuel lines.

You could but I doubt it would run long if it gave you any gain, newer tecumpsehs are pieces of .

If you must spend money on something to dump in your tank, get some Lucas Fuel Treatment.

Yes oscar alcohol eats EVERYTHING over time. But flushing out the system is worth it. Gotta love the sound of a 3 inch high compression alcohol engine. (budaaaa buudaaaaa)

 

[oscaryu1]

But some people don't have resources like you... alcohol for instance... it isn't exactly cheap like pump gas, is it?

 

[jr dragster T]

Go to home depot and get your methanol!!! seriuosly its called methyl hydrate. Comes in 4 liter jugs anywhere from 5-8 dollars for 4 liters. Not that bad. Just keep in mind alcohol requires HUGE jets and will comsume it faster
