Default if your all out

if you run your bottle of nitrous empty and still hit the button will you still get a kick of power from the extra fuel going in on a wet system?

Even if it don't bog from all the extra fuel, your power will suffer from your AFR being too rich. The same thing will happen with real low bottle pressure.

Nope, it'll bog big time. Two ways to tell if you're low on nitrous....(1) weigh the bottle and (2) bog. Oh and your bottle will not build pressure past 650-700psi even with a heater. You do have a heater and a gauge, right? :yesnod:
