Here are just a couple types of systems, but there are many other sources for them:

You would generally have one nozzle under the hood and one for the driver, and maybe one near the fuel tank. Most of the bigger systems are even lesss than $500, and weigh less than 20lbs installed. They have manually actuated types, and also automatic systems triggered by heat. When you consider that a lot of people wouldn't hesitate to put a $500 part on their car that would make it faster, it is cheap insurance. Racecar magazine did a nice write-up on fire supression systems a couple months back which is a good resouce if you can track down a copy. Marty |
