Default how long?

how long can you have lets say a 75 or 100 shot running? like if im racen someone on high high way should i shut off after a certain amount of time? Or is it fine to run for how ever long? should it only be ran for 1/4 mile or is it ok to drift with? thanks in advanced!

Drift with N20? GREAT IDEA

I wouldnt do any top speed runs with it. Spray it through the 1/4, into 5th tops, never 6th thats just a lot of load on the engine. But definetely drift with it for extra angle

you dont want to use nitrous at a high load condition, like alberto said. I would even say 5th is pushin it, but it depends on your gears too. if you have 3.9s or 4.09's then its not a problem to use in 5th, but if youve got boosted gears like a 3.3fd then i dunno bout 5th...

There was a thread in here a few months ago (looks like older threads are gone) where the guy had raced someone on the highway for a distance at top speeds while spraying.
He post pics of his motor showing the melted tops of some pistons.
He toasted the heads and pistons.
Not a pretty site.

I wouldn't spray too far past 110 mph.

Last time mine was on the dyno at the UnNatural, Nissan Dyno Day, he hit 150mph at the top of 4th on the automatic while spraying.
He even yell out "Holy Crap! It's at 150mph and it's still in 4th!!"
He said it was the first AT 350Z he had on his dyno.
LOL!
I'm just glad he didn't go into 5th on spray.
