Default bigger cam/nitrous A4 guys come in please

Which cam, amount of spray, and converter are you using? Thanks for any info! Curious because the guy that just rebuilt my transmission said it felt like my vig3200 was a little loose for the f14 cam/100hp wet shot setup im running so i was lookin into getting a different verter and just wanted some suggestions

Vig...just make sure it have the anti balloning plates with nitros, 3800 had me closer to my nitros power band with my setup, one other thing you need to factor in when ficure out what setup is best for you..

3200 isnt a bad stall, it flashes closer to 3400 and is a very streetable stall for your setup

Well try it a few different ways..
Try stalling it up at launch..1500/2000/3200 or just stomp it out of the hole. Depending on your setup any of the above may work best, thats what test and tune was made for. I just stomp it out of the hole and spray when i know its hooked. Mess around with it a little and try a few different things. Mess with heating your tires and pressure at the same time..When you have the right combo your set.. Hope all that helps

I'm running TCI 3500 2.5 str, 233/239 112 +2 and 150 tnt wet shot is coming soon. Should be a pretty good combo, as long as the converter holds.

lol, I guess you know what I'm running, I just looked and saw you were helping me out in my thread.

Yank ST4000 2.6 str
230/230 .566 111 lsa
stock heads
120 NX shot (made 137 rwhp)
4.10 gears 28" tire

god i LOVE it. a bit too loose of a convertor but its an awesome compromise b/w n/a and on the jug. i wouldnt go any bigger than a 3800 optimally. it sounds like you are fine. i dead pedal mine. your vig stalls at 3600-3700 n/a - IMO thats about perfect.

232/232 .600" lift

vig 3600.

It is very loose... almost unstreetable depending on your definition of streetability.

Gotta pay to play though..


Basically when normal acceleration goes -- the car sounds like its in the same gear until you get past 35-40mph and get into OD

vig multi disc's are made for nitrous and you can lock them under wot so you dont lose so much power.. Drive very nicely as well

You don't like that sound? I love it when my tach doesn't move from 10mph all the way till 50.

See sig for my setup. It's just about perfect for the street if the weather is nice.
