Default Nitrous why you should use it!

Well I am not happy with this 5177 dry nitrous kit at all! I think I am going to throw it in the trash !!

We went to the track last night and tested on a ramp controlled 125 HP shot leaving at 50% from the line. Came out with my new best 60 foot and almost tied within one hundredth of a second my best 1/8 mile run using a full 125 HP shot from the launch.

The big difference is until last night my best effort was in -600 DA and last night the DA was somewhere above +1,500!

Here is the breakdown of the slip – 60 foot 1.279, ET 6.276, MPH 111.175 not bad at all for outdated equipment on a little 346 CI LS!!

It was a great night at the track. Congrats on the new best times. Glad I could help. Watch out for white oldsmobiles though. LOL.

I did not get much racing action in during 2012 except for the CHP race in Atlanta, GA and the LS fest race in Bowling Green, KY and maybe a few times to the local 1/8 mile track.

I finally got a break from work and got the car out for the first time this year on Saturday and had a blast.

It ran great as always. I switched over to a manual master cylinder trying to get better braking. That is going to take a bit to get use to for sure.

1st pass 1.478 60 foot, 6.858 ET at 101.93 MPH
2nd pass 1.473 60 foot, early on the 1-2 shift 6.874 ET at 101.59 MPH
3rd pass 1.471 60 foot, 6.861 ET at 101.74
4th pass 1.455 60 foot, finally got use to the new brakes off the line and got the launch RPM correct 6.842 ET at 101.69

Now if I can get it to be more consistent!
