Default 1st spray on the road

I just got my car back after getting an new KTRE 12 bolt installed, and thought I'd see how the spray felt on the road (The only time I'd used it was on the dyno at MTI a few days ago, the fact is I haven't need to use it)

Got on the highway ran up to 60. opened the bottle and armed the system, and punched it. The car spun the tires all the way through the shot (when the window switch cut off).

I have no idea how much actual speed I gained, but it sure was fun.

Looks like some nittos are in my future, the goodyears are not holding up. <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

I think I'm hooked.

What were the NA and N2O dyno numbers? Just curious.

I haven't had an accurate dyno since the new exhaust and rear were installed.

Jayson from MTI says I'm leaning out at 6,000 or so, and I'll make more power after I get larger injectors.

I'd guess 500+ NA RWHP, and 580 with the N20.
