Nitromethane not nitrous. Sorry should have clarified.

Some N/A guys will mix in nitromethane fuel. Nitromethane is a crazy powerful fuel because it contains a lot of oxygen but it also has a super low air to fuel ratio which means you have to have super big injectors and a good pump. It’s the fuel they use in top fuel cars. I think they use like 11 gallons in a run.

Ah yes, my brain went to nitrous but I realize what you meant now. How much hp can a FBO engine built w/ nitromethane addition fuel system make over the same FBO engine but on E85?

Couldn’t find any good info on mix %, hp, or times when adding nitro.

If we knew the mix % people were running than we could do a good estimate.

The little I could find was people saying that some were spending $20k to build a motor when you could just run nitro mix. So I assume people are making 600+whp stock motor with nitro and maybe cams.

Maybe if I dug harder I could find some more info but not much turned up in my quick search.

5% with gasoline and it requires additional additives to mix together.
