Default warm or cold air???

i need to know if warm weather or cool weather (45-60 degrees) has an effect on nitrous works? Does it makes a difference or not?? someone told me not to spray in cool weather.
And btw its a dry set-up. Any info would help.

Well, engines tend to run a bit lean in the colder air, might be more risky to run a tightly tuned nitrous setup as such would be my train of thought.

also air temp would affect how cold your bottle is unless you have a bottle warmer like me, and then NO2 pressure drops severley causing you not to have much of a HP gain form it. buy a heater

cold cold temp effects thevapors of nitrous so yes it will make a difference but if you innvest the little money for what its worth into a NX bottle warmer it will keep it set at a level of psi as long as theres nitrous to shot so it will help when your bottle starts running low.

How does it affect the vapors? So is it better or worse fot it?
And yea i do need a bottle warmer cause when i am down to 2 or 3 pounds left it is really useless to use cause it dosent hit as hard...

if he gets a heater all it will do is raise the nitrous pressure....

more nitrous+less fuel= BOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!

you need more fuel bro and keep a close eye on that bottle pressure.... Or sell that and get a wet kit.....

The reason people say it will run you lean is because it will..cooler air is more condensed air(more air molecules) and with everyone tuning(i use this loosely considerent changing jets is tuning) for warm weather since its florida...that 100shot can turn into a 125shot with a decent temp change. since it a dry kit, just swap the jet out for something smaller to be safe.

A wet kit would be no different...you'd still be changing jets.

as far as nitrous pressure..that plays a large roll in how much power you actually have (ever wonder why people buy heaters? they actually do something) 600psi on a 100shot jet would be alot less power than it would be at its 1000psi rating...also, going over makes more power aswell..some people have blown because of this fact aswell...there is a noticeable difference in a 900psi hit and a 1300psi hit.
