Educate me on the TNT PPE I know this has been discussed before but I think the time for some juice is coming <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0"> Approx how much RWHP does the TNT 150 Wet shot add to a properly installed system?
Once I get my N/A goal behind me I think the TNT is next to see how much fun N2O is <img src="images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">

It will add 150rwhp to a bone stock Ls1. If you have headers, cam etc you will see greater gains.

Re: Educate me on the TNT PPE yeah, what he stated above. from what i've heard, TNT rates their system on a completely stock motor. if you have other mods that make the motor run more efficiently, you will get more HP out of the system. so i guess, depending on what you have done to the car to get the high 11's n/a, i would guess maybe it would add about 160-165hp? what do the rest of you think?

Re: Educate me on the TNT PPE I'll have open TTS LT's, 218/224 .528/.535 114 cam, ported heads, LS6 intake
The plan calls for about 475FWHP/470FWTQ so with my 3000 race weight is gonna be FUN <img src="images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">
How much does the TNT system weigh? I figured it was around 50lbs or so when I added weight for the N2O and a rollbar

Re: Educate me on the TNT PPE well i know that my bottle itself is about 25lbs full. so take that into consideration. as for exactly what you will gain from the tnt kit, i can't tell you. i'm sure the guys from tnt will post here and maybe they'll be able to asnwer your question better.

Re: Educate me on the TNT PPE Bob here is a perfect comparo for you.
I have macs ( not as good as your LT's), and a 216/224 cam, and the TNT 150 shot. I estimated on my best run to be putting down about 534rwhp, on a 150 shot with the bottle at about 1,200 psi. I figure I am making about 350rwhp on the motor. I have run 125 mph through the TH400, and 12 bolt, so you should be able to run at least 127 through the efficient trans <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0">
But I will tell you bob the 4L60E dosnt last long with the big Torque of a wet shot through long tubes. Mine went in about 3 trips to the track <img src="images/icons/frown.gif" border="0">
Bob what your thinking of doing is what I am currently doing. Cam, converter, and a big shot! Easy mid to high 10 second combo.
Good luck buddy!
BTW a bigger cam is going in my car in about two weeks so we might see allitle more out of mine on the big end. HOPEFULLY <img src="images/icons/grin.gif" border="0">

Re: Educate me on the TNT PPE Depends on your skill level really. Ive had guys put them on with no issues and Ive had guys call or post with fitment issues. If you will take the Lid clamp and slide it back as far as it will go then mark and trim you wont have many issues.The trick is putting the mass housing in the lid, connecting the rubber bellows,then installing all at once. Ive done fitting on 97-02 vettes and 98-02 f-body's and can trim and install in about 8-9 minutes ( <img src="images/icons/tongue.gif" border="0"> been doing them for awhile) . When I receive the calls or see post It always worries me if there are such inconsistencies within the radiator supports. *Also some aftermarket mass housings are longer then stock and have to be trimmed as well. A good idea might be to run a search on the f-body sights under TNT and you will get the good, bad, and ugly LOL.If I can help you know all you have to do is call or e-mail and I'll help anyway possible.

Re: Educate me on the TNT PPE easy install. the only thing that was a pain was the wiring, and that is only cause you want to get it done to test it out, but still have to wire it up pretty and out of all the other accessories way. and everything i've read says that a 114lsa would be better for a N2O application? what's the deal?

114 is good for FI and A4's. any cam with more exhaust duration and lift is better for N2O. those are separate points, i.e. AZZ's cam is good for his auto with the 114 (stock PCM) and good for his nitrous with the bigger exhaust duration. the tighter the LSA (lower numerical value) the less cyl. pressure builds up. --god for n2o.

Re: Educate me on the TNT PPE im not saying that a single duration cam (like your b1 mike) isnt a good cam. just not specifically for nitrous. great cam all around though. i like ARE's cams for spray. or maybe if comp has a 221/224 or 224/228? they would work well.
