Nitrous For Shifter/PressureRegulation?
I'd like to swtich over to using a 2.5 lb. nitrous bottle to cover shifting and spraying. However, the shifter side is regulated down to around 130 psi or so currently (CO2). How do you split the shifter side off and regulate it?

use a T one side goes to regulator & shifter the other side goes to nitrous solenoid

It looks like I can use the regulator I have then. Just remove it from the co2 valve assembly. So, basically just tee off of the nitrous valve and run a braided line to the regulator. Then I can use the exisiting poly line to the solenoid.
Does that sound about right?

what is the psi rating of the poly line? remember that the pressure of the co2 will increase when exposed to heat

The poly line is fine for the regulated side. That is the way the CO2 shifter is set up. But I want to run stainless braided line from the nitrous bottle to the regulator, regulate it down to 130 psi, and then go from the there to the solenoid using the poly line.

Yes, I will be posting it. It will probably be a couple of weeks before I can really get into it. I have to get some machining and welding done on the spare swingarm I have....and I'm not sure how quickly the shop works.
