First outing on the juice!
First outing on the juice! Went to my local 1/8th mile drag strip on Sat (20Sept14) to test out the Nitrous and I think the car performed well.
A quick rundown of the car:
00' Trans Am
Stock Shortblock (Katech rod bolts)
TEA Stage II 243's
Martin (Tick Performance) Custom Grind
Vic Jr Intake
6061 Elbow
95mm PTM TB
NX 4150 Gemini Twin Stage 6 Conversion plate
Mainline System with 10LB Bottle (.125 Fuel noid, .078 Nitrous noid)
Jakes perfomance Stage II Th400
RMVB with Transbrake
4500 Nitrous Converter (Stalls to 4250 on brake)
PST 3.5" DS/Moser 9" 3.89 gear
Strange SA shocks w/300# springs
CE Rear shocks (Summit special) w/Stock rear springs
Founders Control arms, BMR Tq Arm
MT Pro 275
Car ran a best of 7.2@96.8mph on MOTOR 1.60 60' (Off the Transbrake)
With a 52N 28F (E85) jetting it ran a best of 6.47@106.8 mph 1.43 60' (No transbrake, leaving off idle) at around a 3300DA (It's on a mountain) (Note-Nitrous comes in at 2800rpm off idle and I shift around 68-7000rpm) Not the best, but heres the video of that run-
(Edit: Have not weighed the car, estimated weight is around 3300-3400lbs)
I plan on moving up in jet size real quick..lol But all in all the car ran real well and for it being my first time on nitrous. It's addicting!! The way the power comes in is ridiculous. Figured I would share my first experience with the Nitrous, hopefully the 6XN jetting will make it even better. Looking to take this thing into the 9's.

Cam is actually more of a max effort NA spec'd for the Vic Jr, not a nitrous cam. I would be curious to how much more I could pick up off a Nitrous cam.
