that monster should have held that power no problem. do you have an adjustable master? is it adjusted right? sure it wasnt wheel spin? we have had a level 4 hold over 800ftlbs on the dyno. and monster rates their clutches at the tires not flywheel. did you break the clutch in properly?

Why do you care so much? Granted I have a interface to pull timing, but every race I do street and Strip ( allot) is on the spray, thats why I must be stupid to have a nitrous cam. I am giving up power NA for power on Spray, its the same thing..
But anyway, I would suggest a timing controller or IAT but its not required.

its just retarded to me not to have it worked out that you have ideal timing for both states. there is just the right way to do things, I can understand if you dont have the money but its just lazy..its so easy and common sense to do it. that's hotrodding..anyone can buy parts u know ?!!?

Ran 200 shot on a stock LT1 (other than cam and rockers) with 33 degrees of timing. Went 11.25 @ 121mph. Seamed to like it, blew her next pass though, put new bottle in and the heater got a little away from me. 1250lbs. bottle pressure, i think it just forced more nitrous through too quick and pre-ignited.

its not the same. you cant make cam changes instantly for 5 dollars. to the OP if your getting a controller box just ignor my posts.

I ended up having 9* of timing removed for my 150 shot because I told my tuner I want to be safe to run a 200 shot in the future.
People are saying if you take out timing it will run like **** on motor. I am not sure how true that is. I only lost 1mph at the track with all that timing taken out, and to honest I havent really noticed a difference in how it runs on the street's. Im running 21* with my ms3 cam.

From the second the nitrous was installed on this car it went from being a N/A car to a nitrous car, therefore everything done from then on out has and will be done to gain on spray not N/A. Anytime this car will be ran seriously the bottle will be on, an he has enough bottles to keep it fed at anytime. Running without it would be like going out an looking for a good time an leaving your tool at home.
The car only lost 12 hp between the nitrous tune an the N/A tune so the N/A tune wasn't hurt enough to worry about. The car has more than enough power to get out of its own way in traffic.
He came on here to ask for advice and opinions what he should do with his car, and while I'm sure he appreciates your opinion, its just that, your opinion. You have your opinions, I have my opinions, and he has his, but at the end of the day he owns the car and his opinion is the only one that matters when it comes to this car.
There is no reason to go off into a tangent about how someone is being wrong, lazy, or retarted just because they didn't take your advice on a car that you'll probably never lay eyes on. Thats not hotrodding. You do your car the way you want, we'll do our cars the way we think is best. That my friend is hotrodding.

I'm not gonna get in a internet pissing contest with you over this, cause it makes you look like a idiot an me look just as ignorant.

Hey man thanks for the comment. You help prove my point that theres not enough power loss with a nitrous tune to worry about at the level we're running. Im at 22 degrees and it runs great.

OP: The same guy that tuned your car tuned mine... I trust him. My car is faster NA than the dip ***** that are giving you greef, also says a little something.
If at any time you want to have all the NA power back buy HP tunes and just switch the tunes before running the nitrous. RPM knows what they're doing and pulling the timing as you've done is the right way. There's allot of guys that do it that way, I'll be doing it that way as well.
I don't trust the timing pullers, I sure as hell don't trust a $5 resistor.

I missed where he said he was getting it done at RPM. Great dudes and Ryan Robinson is a hell of a tuner. I used to have my car tuned there before I moved out of state.
I don't know if they still hold it, but there's a reason that shop held the record for so long for a nitrous based LS car. 8.11 I believe.
I think they also put a full weight (someone correct me if I'm wrong) Trailblazer SS into the 8s (on spray) with all four seats (four kirkeys, lol).

Congrats on the new best. I run with the "nitrous tune" in at all times. And like yourself, we lost a few hp on motor. But its ok. If people are worried about the resistor mod , than why not change plugs out to a more "na" plug. I run br8's gapped to a .028, and 8 degrees pulled. Runs pretty good around town and on motor it still runs low 12's high 11's in the 1/4 on motor.
Congrats again
