Seriously considering insalling a wet nitous kit, but I don't know of any place that refills empty bottles.......can anyone advise......I live in Oakville, but spent plenty of time Mississauga.
Also, anyone know how much it costs to refill a bottle?

I think performance improvements in Brampton has a refil spot.
I used to go to Straight Line Racing in Scarborough to refil. I think they were the cheapest at the time. It was $5 per pound of nitrous, not sure about the costs now, since it's been years since I've used it.
vicLX>>> btw, why would a dry kit be safer? I'm pretty sure that dry kits are more prone to detonation cause it requires the car itself to compensate for the fuel, while with a wet kit, fuel and nitrous is injected together.

Rep Power: 0 Thx everyone...my understanding is that under the current Highway Traffic Act, its not illigal to have nitrous installed, but because it is a compresed flamable gas, you have to have a licence to transport.
Gay.
Brampton is close enuff. I'll check it out.
Im thinkin 50 shot will do the trik...still got that homo in the 1989 Nissan 240 who neads a beat down!

Rep Power: 0 NOS is illegal if you have the bottle mounted to your car, you can use a bungee cord or something to keep it from moving around in your trunk. It's also supposed illegal to transport it. If you are caught with Nitrous, then you wont be ticketd under the HTA, it'll be something else, I think it's the Transport Act or something.
Also I don't understand why everyone thinks NOS is explosive. All it is, is compressed oxygen, and most nitrous bottles all are equipped with purge valves, so if the pressure gets too high, it just releases all the nitrous into the air. All you'll see is a puff of white smoke coming out of your trunk. I think Fast and Furious had a large impact on that misconception though.
