Default Crossed the 500 HP mark on motor!!!

New dyno results are in. 502 hp on motor 465 ft pds at 5500.
Graph shows no less than 400 ft pds from 2500 to 6500.

Love the blower !!!

NOS results will follow soon as I have a few more things to do on this system.
I take alot of time on all nitrous installs as I am a perfectionist about plumbing and wiring.

Sounds good; what are you doing about the differential? If they are as weak as many say, you won't be able to play with the power for long........

Are you going to take it to the dragstrip to see what it'll do in the quarter mile?

I along with some other racing buddies feel that the rear will be at the edge of the what it can handle on motor. I will be using a progressive NOS controller for all NOS runs. I will have the stage III kit installed by next weekend and will be racing on Sunday.
I feel that if wheel hop is controlled the rear will be sufficient for decent 60' times with a moderate launch rpm. I do have to be careful as the motor is making over 400 ft lbs at 2500.
My Lightning ran 12.0's with a 60' of 1.67 and a mph of 116, the ET calculator I use has been within 1/10th and 3 mph on the last 4 cars I have run in the 1/4 mile.
I hope this trend continues because the program estimates my Caddy will run 11.36 @ 126 on motor and 10.50 at 137 on NOS. I want to stay slower than 11.49 so I do not have to install a roll cage. Sounds like I will be letting off early.

THe dyno numbers are RWHP I read what I posted and thought it looked like I was talking about flywheel HP, estimated flywheel HP 611
