Thanks guys. I'm really happy with how the car is running. Honestly, I'm kinda shocked it's running so great. I'll keep everyone posted on how everything goes next week.

WOW!

Curious, but what is all involved in preping for the track with the NOS? And what about at the start of the race (i.e., NOS switched on?, etc.). Any tribal knowledge gained from your experinces with the system (daily driven and at the track), meaning as a daily driver, does the bottle get in the way of storage, compress gas cylinder saftey concerns, or hassles of any kind?

Is it a myth or is it possible to hide this system so that dealer mechanic will not be able to spot it during reg. schedule maintenances, of course assuming the bottle has been removed from the interior. Might be wrong, but I thought it was one of the advantages of the system.

I take the ISF and a service vehicle (my XC90). This way i can change the wheels and gut the trunk at the track without any issue. Prep for the track is going to be relatively easy with a street car. All u have to make sure is that you have a full bottle (fail on my part), tires, and a helmet.

At the start of the race the system was armed. If you look for it, you can see me reach down and flip the switch after each burnout. As a daily driver, the car is just like any other isf.

When the bottle is in the car, storage space is hindered a bit. But i can easily take the bottle and its brackets out of the car within a minute.

It is very possible to hide the system from the dealer... Though i havnt tried it lol. Ive gotten so familiar with the car that i can put the majority of the wiring and pluming underneath the car near the firewall. This issue with my setup is that i have tapped the factory fuel rail. If you were to get fuel from a different location, a lexus technician would have to go far out of his way to find the system

WOW!, Awesome what was the TOTAL cost for your setup? Approx. how long does the bottle last (daily driver) and price for refill? I would use the spray sparingly.
