- π After 4.5 years and 3.3 million views, the abandoned 35-foot limo is brought back to life with a massive dose of nitrous oxide.
- π οΈ The installation of two nitrous bottles totaling 35 lbs from Nitrous Outlet is detailed, highlighting the kit's comprehensive nature.
- π‘ The process involved overcoming initial wiring and fuel pump issues, including a creative fix using compressed air on the Schrader valve.
- π§ The team successfully installed a universal wet nitrous kit, which includes fuel along with the nitrous for optimal power.
Limo's Construction and Challenges
- π§± The limo's construction is described as being built from scrap metal and pallets, with a terrifyingly cobbled-together interior and chassis.
- β οΈ Significant structural issues were noted, including cracked welds, busted cab mounts, and a terrifyingly "tandem" axle made from scrap metal.
- π The vehicle's immense weight (estimated at 8,000 lbs) and poor original engineering are identified as major factors limiting performance gains.
Nitrous System Testing and Performance
- π¨ The purge system was tested, initially blowing off a hose due to improper connection, but later successfully creating a large cloud of nitrous.
- π Initial tests with small nitrous shots (35-75 HP) showed minimal performance increase, attributed to the limo's weight and the engine's poor tuning.
- π₯ With a 100-shot nitrous kit and improved bottle pressure, a noticeable difference was observed, including louder engine sounds and more smoke.
- π¨ The video concludes with a massive burnout, demonstrating the limo's newfound, albeit absorbed, power and the fun of the nitrous system.
