NOS Explosion In Garage From Faulty Hookup...(pics) WOW!!

http://www.healthyhome.net/NOS2.htm

Hey everyone, look what i found...Kinda scary huh.??...Just make sure your NOS is hooked up right...i guess this guy didnt have it hooked up write and look at the damage it caused...

(some of the pics dont seem to work but go to the bottom and click more pics and some will work if u click on them..)

Everyone with Nos, what do u think? kinda scary knowing u have the same setup (almost) in YOUR car??? hehe

Just thought i'd scare the love and show everyone what could happen! BE CARFUL!

I didnt click the link but im guessing it was a max. If it is it has been around the net for years but that is by far the worst thing ever with nitrous and i believe it was because he left his bottle warmer on so i wouldnt worry too much

yeah that was a guy that had a maxima and he was lead to believe from talking to the "reps' and the nitrous xpress place that he could leave it on....go figure...that story has been up in the air for a long time he tried to file a lawsuit with the company claiming he was mislead and/or was given faulty equipment. I remember seeing this way back i think summer of 99 or so.........good thing he was at work!

All the tanks have a pressure release valve on them. I can't believe that the warmer would do all that. That thing pulls some serious juice and would have killed the battery quick without the car running.

Luckily, I don't have nightmares about my car doing this. LOL!!!
