Lloyd... thank you 
That stuff was priceless. I talked John into it... the conversation was more like... "ok, I'll do it"... then... "you don't have head studs? What were you thinking?"
Here's the stupider vid... just after some serious wrist surgery to repair an exploded tendon...

Yep Mark, that was me. LOL Honestly, It was John's idea. LOL As for the goofy comment about using my jacket to shield debris??? Come on now. That is just plain goofy. My hand was cold. LOL And for the guys making the comments about it being crazy and irresponsible, unless you were there, you can not honestly say for sure how much was shot into the tract. I could sit at home all day and watch videos and make my own assumptions. however it would be just that. An assumption. In case you have never heard the phrase, assume is nothing more than an "butt" with u and me at the end.
Now,,,,, the dumbest thing I have done to date......Probably turning my snow plow rig/daily driver into a 1289 HP toy. But dang I love it.

I was not there but the video guy says "well here is some red neck engineering". Sort of says it all.
The comment in this thread that indicated that some one else will now do what they saw and do it without knowing that it could go bad is so true. That is why in my first comment there should have been a warning to never do what is was you were doing in the video.
Last but not least I don't have to have built Nitrous systems for 20 years to know and not assume what could go wrong, just as I do not need to swim with sharks or jump off the Golden Gate bridge to know that it does not always turn out reall well by the time you are done doing it.

Oh heck, I thought that video was great. Ever hook a leaf blower to a van and drive it down the road? Of all times I wish I had a camcorder on me.
I know some say its unsafe and all that stuff and they are right. But, if you do not push the envelope past what guys say are crazy we would not be where we are with our trucks and the power they produce.
I bet the first guy that cranked up a diesel was called a crazy nutjob and was told it would blow up and not run right.
Mad, nice vid of the roller skates. Wheres the video of you riding a little red wagon down a monster hill 30MPH? Those were good times.

Holy crap! What part of stop bashing each other don't you get? I understand if you think someone else is stupid... if you think I'm stupid... PM me! I have no problem with that!
For the love of god, don't make me lock this.
Let's have a good time.
No, we should have not sprayed NO2 into an intake. Yes, we did. No one died. No, no one else should do it.
That's it.
One more whiney, cry-baby post, and I'll abuse my power as an admin and lock the thread, delete it, and mute who ever cry's about it for a month.
Grow the heck up.
If you don't like it, PM me. We'll discuss it like grown ups, but not on an open forum.

i dont hope any one dies but if they do they do no skin of my back let people do what they want to do. you need to do a smarty first ive just found out the hard way that i should of tuned my rig first before buying and installing nitrous. if i could do my whole truck over again i would built everything to handle power first they i would add the power get the most out of the truck as i can then prep the truck for the nitorus and spray the crap out of it.
