Nitrous oxide: a brief history

First synthesised in 1772 by English chemist Joseph Priestley, when it was known first as phlogisticated nitrous air and later Factitious Airs, medical trials had established its properties as a pain reliever before the end of the century.

By 1799 the British upper classes had adopted the gas as a recreational drug, holding "laughing gas parties", more than 40 years before its first actual use as a dental analgesia.

Early in the 20th century, it was used as an oxidizer in rocket motors, and then aircraft in World War 2.

Luftwaffe aircraft used nitrous to maintain the power of engines at high altitude where the air density is lower, and to provide short boosts of additional power on Focke fighter planes.

The British used nitrous oxide injector systems in some night fighter variants of the de Havilland Mosquito and some versions of the Supermarine Spitfire.

In cars, the gas is most commonly used in drag-racing, principally in US-based series including IHRA and NHRA series.
Nitrous oxide: how it works

We're going to keep this simple, or things will get very complicated indeed.

An internal combustion engine relies on a supply of oxygen to burn the fuel that makes the pistons pump.

If you can increase the oxygen supply, you can burn more fuel, and therefore increase power and performance.

Tanks of pressurised liquid nitrous oxide are connected to the Airbox or TB spacers for injection by feed lines.

The nitrous (and fuel in wet systems) are fed to the intake manifold when the throttle is opened wide, turning into a gas because of the lack of pressure in the surrounding air.

This causes a large drop in intake charge temperature, resulting in a denser charge, further allowing more air/fuel mixture to enter the cylinder.

As the piston compresses, the intense heat breaks the oxygen atom attached to the N2O (nitrous oxide), which is then free to be used in combustion and mix with the extra fuel to generate more power.

OK, it wasn't that simple after all...
op 6 nitrous oxide questions and answers
Will nitrous oxide it damage my engine?

No. Installed correctly, using reliable products, and tuned within the engine's limits and it's as reliable as a standard engine.
Are NOS systems legal on-road motorbikes and cars?

Yes, just remember to declare the modification to your insurer.
Is it flammable and is it safe to use?

No, it's not flammable. Nitrous is not a fuel - technically it's an oxidiser. It will make a fire that is already underway more ferocious if the cold of the liquid doesn't put the fire out first. It has almost identical characteristics to carbon dioxide, which most people will know is used in fire extinguishers, and is just as safe to store. It won't explode for no reason, and all bottles have safety valves installed.
Do I need to modify my motorbike before I fit a nitrous kit?

In most cases, no. For small amounts, which can still be significant on a bike (for example, 25bhp extra) the excess abilities of the components aren't compromised. If you push further then yes, small mods might be needed. Maybe an uprated fuel pump or a second pump, just for the system, colder spark plugs, and you're good for more power. To go for serious power then, just like any other mods, you will need to look at the strength of the engine and suitability of all the components.
Can I get insurance for nitrous oxide kits for a motorbike?

Yes, although every case is rated on its own merits and there are many more factors than just fitting nitrous that are taken into account when insurers accept risks and set premiums. For example, it might be more difficult for a young rider looking to ensure a bike with 75bhp of nitrous than for a more experienced rider. In most cases, it's no different to any other mod that gives more power - you need an insurance company or broker that understands modifications, like Bikesure. We always advise to call first and check you can get cover.
How much extra power can I have?

How long is a piece of string? Wizards of Nos's standard systems are capable of delivering up to an extra 150bhp, but not all bikes can take that. That's why the systems are jetted - you can have as little as 2.5bhp. For example, though, a 600cc bike will easily take 25-50bhp, 900cc-plus 75bhp (possibly 100bhp depending on the specification of the engine).
