I have the regular NX bottle, but would be afraid to have it painted as I've already scarred mine with burn marks from heating it with a torch! If you are going to run a heater you are going to cover a lot of it up anyway....and if you're not going to run a heater...you're gonna burn it up with a torch like I do.

FWIW, I only ran a 14.2 on my first pass with the nitrous because I didn't heat the bottle and only had around 600lbs of pressure. The next pass I heated it until it got to 1000, purged it in the motor down to 950, and ran a 13.5x. Don't think you can get by without bottle pressure....it just ain't gonna "hit" hard without some PSI in the bottle.

True but if you are running a nitrogen push system...

If I had your money I'd burn mine!
Most of us meager mortals are lucky to have a basic set-up.

I can't wait to hear some numbers from your truck! It's BADASS!
