OK, let me say that this question has nothing to do with Bottle temp.

I was told by someone that seems to know a lot about cars/motorcycles (he does engine work on motorcycles mostly), that there could be issues with running nitrous in cold weather. Something about the "Nitrous produced" extra oxygen and the mixing with the fuel. Not sure along what part of the whole process there would be a problem, as the info was relayed form my father. I am guessing that the gist of it was the the whole breakdown of the Nitrous -> Oxygen process, in his opinion, could be an issue in colder weather. But maybe he was referring to the breakdown of Nitrous->Oxygen then the mixing with the fuel being an issue in colder weather.

Anyone have any ideas? Or opinions?

 

I don't think cold weather will have any effect on running nitrous since its already at -130 deg F coming out the nozzle. The ECU already adjusts timing etc based on the outside air temp so that should not affect the nitrous and fuel supply either.

I am on a Snow-Cross racing team (Pit Crew) as well and there are sleds that use nitrous so I fail to see any complications due to colder temps.

One of the things I really like about nitrous though is how it cools the intake during use, especially in the really hot weather, you come back from a run and the intake is cool to the touch not hot like it is N/A. Takes less time to cool the engine down.

 

Thanks dude:-)

 

wtf? nitrous snowmobiles? thats awesome...
