anyone ever use oxygen for more power instead of nitrous??
Hi, I read all the extra hp sources to increase power, what would happen if you would put a bottle of pure oxygen instead of the nitrous, and run it instead? I am assuming someone has either tried this or maybe blew himself up...just curious...I know oxygen is suppose to enhance burning. Appreciate a reply, thanks, Dennis

its too dangerous, my grandfather though about using it years ago but ruled it out as too dangerous if something every happened, maybe you coul duse liquid oxygen , but i dont know if a consumer could get it .

You wouldn’t be able to add a significant amount without causing problems… it would probably start with either issues with keeping from blowing your intake apart or if you did manage to get it in the engine you’d probably end up using the piston tops as fuel…
