Q: How does nitrous work? A: Nitrous oxide is made up of 2 parts nitrogen and one part oxygen (36% oxygen by weight). During the combustion process in an engine, at about 572 degrees F., nitrous breaks down and releases oxygen. This extra oxygen creates additional power by allowing more fuel to be burned.
haha, last week i tried to drain the battery as fast as I could. set my brightness to full, left a Flashlight app on, then had music playing. it actually took an hour to drain though, i was getting a bit impatient. I think using the GPS for navigation would be a quick way to run the battery down :) +1.
Once the Voltâs battery is depleted, the engine fires up and clutches to the generator to produce the power required to drive the car. Above 70 mph, when the generator couples to the ring gear, the engine gets a more efficient direct mechanical connection to the wheels.
