Default My Direct Port Kit

I finished up my fuel system for my Direct Port kit this weekend and I must say I am very pleased with the way everything has turned out.

Tell me what you think <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

<img src="http://161.109.100.69/fuel1.jpg" alt=" - " />
<img src="http://161.109.100.69/fuel2.jpg" alt=" - " />
<img src="http://161.109.100.69/fuel3.jpg" alt=" - " />
<img src="http://161.109.100.69/fuel4.jpg" alt=" - " />

I am going to figure up the pricing for everything on my kit and create an itemized list on my web page for those that might be interested in a similar setup. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Once my clutch goes in next week, Dave (Nitro Dave) and I are going to go and dyno the car on NX's dyno and make any final adjustments needed to the kit or fuel system. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

As of now my bolt-on M6 runs 11.8x's at a 3550 raceweight. What kind of numbers should I expect with a 150 shot on the car?

Sean,

Looks Great. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

Maybe we should put that on my Hot Rod. <img border="0" alt="[devil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />

I think that you can runs some high 10's and can you say maybe high 9's with system on the Hot Rod. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />

Thanks for the compliments <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Coach, I am thinking high tens with this setup are possible. If things work out like I am hoping I might have a heads/cam w/forged bottom end 346 in a few months. At that point I will bump it on up to a 200 shot and get an extra 15lb bottle. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

Email me if you want me to hook you up with a similar setup for your car. A car like yours would be great advertisement for the nitrous outlet <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

That's ******' sweet!That's exactly what I want to go with!
I am interested in the itemized list.
A friend of mine has sprayed 10 bottles through a F2 kit-200 shot
(stock heads and stock bottom end)
You don't need forged internals,just a good dyno tune(to check A/F ratio)

Waiting for your timeslips... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
