I ran nitrous on my stock converter for 2 years until my tranny lost 3rd, so i put a fuddle 3,600 in with my new tranny, love the converter but still havent had better times than my stock one on the bottle, motor passes picked up 6-7 tenths. I always spray off the line with no controller, like hard hit and 60fts.

just a lid, catback, throttle body spacer, and 3.73 gears. Dynod 282hp and 292 torque, without a tune on motor, and 360hp and 362 torque on the spray without tune. They are weak numbers but that dont matter your timeslip matters. Have you ever ran ot dynoed yours?
