Thats some scary sh#t. Good thing my HRC kit can't
do that...LOL.....That is a freak accident though. Dont let that stop any of you from using nos. You have about as good of a chance that lightning will strike you as that happening.

Well even if he did hardwire his bottle heater, the pressure release valve should have saved his car....but it didn't work. So yes, he was a moron for leaving his bottle heater on, but the safety mechanism that is designed to save the car from explosions like that failed.

I think he did it to be able to sue NX (or is just plain stupid) Just too fishy that he just happened to hard wire the heater, leave it on and the bottle was faulty.

Have there been any more explosions?
