spray=quick starts???

Hey guys,
I have the 305 on juice now and have a question. Ususally when I started the car(before ever juicing it) it would take almost 2 seconds to fire. Now, after I juiced it a couple times, it fires up instantaneously. Is this b/c the computer retarded the timing when I juiced it or what??

could have cleaned off your plugs or valves. Nitrous will definately clean off the piston tops.. sometimes down to the wristpin.

l've noticed the same thing, l guessed that it may have cleaned my valves or something like that, but not only did l notice it fired quicker, but after l put it on juice l also noticed that its got a little more throttle response, and it almost seems to be running smoother, maybe it's just me, but then again maybe it really may have cleaned out my motor a little l dunno

my car(after spraying it) runs faster with no nitrous. I guess it cleaned it out?

hmm, interesting. Thanks guys. Ohh, I put in new Delco plugs also in replacement for my bosch platinums b/c apparently N2O and Platinums don't get along hehe. But I know for a FACT that's not the reason b/c the Platinums I put in a few months ago were new and didn't give me quick start ups.
