I would like to install a N2O kit on my Corvette, but despite searching extensively I cannot locate any gas suppliers in or around London.
Where do people get the nitrous from??

I don't think my local dentist would be too happy for me to pop in with the bottle.

Im asking for professional outlets.

Used to get mine locally, but they closed down. Used a place in Braintree called Active Nitrous. Can get refills at Santa Pod too.

Take a look at the Wizard of Nos website for agents.

BOC won't supply N2O to private users - medical use only.

I asked on the drag racing sites and found a local team who would fill my bottle for me.

If you don't mind a little bit of a trek out west of London, then http://www.robinson-race-cars.co.uk/ near Basingstoke refills NOS tanks. Great place for a nosey around, too...!

becasue all the Nitrous in their retail supply chain is produced to pharmaceutical standards ... (as the lower total volume cylinder users are medical users i.e. 'ambulance' (as entonox) or anaesthetics / hospital uses (Nitrous and entonox)

vs bulk supplies for industrial uses ( e.g. as an aerosol propellant)
