[sportrider - latest stories] - Nitrous Oxide--"Wet" and "Dry" Kits

Nitrous Oxide--"Wet" and "Dry" Kits

Fuel injection controllers and dual injectors have made nitrous more popular than ever.Long before we were spraying nitrous oxide into motorcycle engines for its power boosting characteristics, it had another life. In the late 1700s an English chemist named Joseph Priestly discovered the near odorless, colorless non-flammable gas; at that time it was originally intended to be a preservative for food. Then some years later fellow Englishman Humphrey Davy experimented with the physiological uses of nitrous oxide and its anesthetic and analgesic qualities. By 1840 it was used commonly in dentistry, childbirth, and even during heart attacks to relieve pain, and is still used today to a limited extent.
