I was running my shocks(rear) at 8-9 on the pass side, 5-6 on the Drivers side, tire pressure 20 psi. Front shocks were set at 1.

That's true and no offense taken, looking for input.. Just wondering, why 4k for the nitrous to come on? I'm a nitrous newbie, trying to learn what I can.

I have no weight transfer, the car sits on Eibach Pros, hence the 4k on point. Im a newbie too with nitrous. Tryed 3400 with the nitrous to help flash the converter and blew the tires off. I did manage a 3600 on point setting once and that was fun, but I fear for the stock 10 bolt. I will try it again though, now that the air is better. Looking for a high ten before I put the car away.

Have you played with tire pressures? Also, can you get some adjustable shocks too?

That should help some. Also, how are you running the nitrous? Thru a timer? or WOT switch?

Timers work great but it all depends on what you are trying to accomplish.

Next year I'll either take some weight off the front end, and or, get some adjustable shocks. My nitrous is triggered with the 685 box. I run the same tires as OIF1VET only on a 10" wheel.
OIF1VET, is the track prepped when you go, or is it a test and tune deal?
