To people with purge kits

When you purge do you see the vapor really well. When I purge i can't see any vapor, you can feel it but can't see it. I have 2 2lb bottles. is that my problem? thanks

You may also be low on pressure, raise it some.

Sinse its summer time the bottle should be close to 900psi as is. Try to refill it first, then get a bottle heater, if you cant, try sticking the bottle into hot water, worked for my buddies NOS system.

First thing you should do is get rid of those 2 2lb bottles and either get one 10lb one or 2 5lb ones. Then get a pressure gauge for the bottle(s). After that a heater is a must, and if possible a bottle blanket. I currently dont have a blanket but since I have a heater im not too worried.

I've noticed that depending on the weather you may or may not see a big plume of nitrous. (Most of the time you will see some white gas though)

Yea, the warmer the weather the nicer the purge. But I compared a NOS purge vs my NX purge and with NOS I could only hear, with my purge I made it run home with its tail between its legs. DaThrillir will testify.
