Default N20 Users Beware

I have proven today that by adding a fuel additive, specifically NX Power Boost, that the fuel solenoid failed to open in my ZEX kit!! There is a rubber bushing in most solenoids that will expand if it comes in contact with certain additives! All of the above happened while on a dyno so I have quite a bit of proof! In addition to the above, two different N20 Kit companies agreed that they have seen this happen before. I hit 468 torqe within 2 seconds and everything was over by the time I hit 4500 rpm's! (I was running a 200 shot). The engine has been pulled & the heads come off in the morning!

N20 sucks. Just think for the price of the kit and a motor, you coulda already almost bought some real HP.

I was hoping you would say that! 400+ RWHP is nice, isn't it Mike?
