I bent them myself, I hate the way it looks, which is why I got the rail kit. The length of the lines being different effects the first thousanth of a second, if that. 1000psi comes out fast enough to never notice it. The lines for the raps will be equal length with identical bends, simply for asthetics. ---

It is expelled so fast that an extra inch wont make a difference. The lines don’t need insulation. Liquid Nitrous is so cold when it is being expelled into the atmosphere that it would give you instant frostbite if you put your hand in front of it. ---
