Abstract:
1. A nitrous-oxide system for an engine, comprising: a) an internal combustion engine having a fuel line; b) a nitrous-oxide bottle, containing nitrous-oxide; c) a nitrous-oxide line, coupled to the nitrous-oxide bottle; d) a nozzle, coupled to the nitrous-oxide line, and operatively coupled to an engine intake; e) a nitrous-oxide valve, coupled to the nitrous-oxide line between the nitrous-oxide bottle and the nozzle; f) a control switch, operatively coupled to the nitrous-oxide valve; g) an inline pressure regulator, coupled to the nitrous-oxide line between the nitrous-oxide bottle and the nozzle, with an inlet and an outlet coupled to the nitrous-oxide line, and capable of regulating pressure of the nitrous-oxide delivered to the nozzle to lower than 500 psi; and h) a fuel controller, coupled to the control switch and configured to be coupled to an electronic fuel injector system, to change the fuel injector system to provide more fuel when the control switch is activated.
