Nos Purging Pics?

I just wanted to see if anyone has any pics of cars with NOS and them purging it! I remeber seeing a nice pic of a Black Ram Air with it coming out the front of the hood but i lost/deleted it for some reason!

This is Rick's car. Last name begins with an L, but I don't remember what it is exactly. It was in GMHTP too.

Would like to add for the uninformed and Fast and the Furious fans:

N.O.S. stands for Nitrous Oxide Systems, a brand made by Holley.

purging gets the gaseous nitrous out of the lines and fills them with liquid nitrous so that when you fire the system you get less inconsistancy. Plus it looks sweet. I have picks of mine purging but they are hardcopies. Ill have to get some digis and put them up.

Yup 88 hit it on the head, you dont want the gaseous, thats why the more passes on the bottle the more the car slows down. A freshly filled bottle always runs the best.
