Default Heads or 100 shot?
Did the other thread get closed while I was at the car show? Can't find it anymore!

N20 will get you better track times but only when the bottle is full. Are you looking for street power or track times?

I already have n2o I was looking for a thread another guy started yesterday. I guess it got too heated and got closed. I was posting in there. Then I looked in my statistics to go back to it and it was gone.

I was posting my argument that n2o would be better for the guy who posted the question. He had bolt ons but no h/c. Stock rear. I said n2o would be better, better gains. You can lock out 1st and delay 2nd and not bang the **** outta the rear and get awesome power.

100 shot with the nano system. Then cam after that. But it is mostley depending on what the person is going to do with the car...track only, or dd/street car. If street car, a decent H/C combo for power all the time. Max effort at the track, spray for right now, add more N/A power, add more juice, go faster.

if you put a 100 shot on there and 1,2,3rd time you spray it it shoots a rod through the wall you might have wanted heads instead
