Default How much can the -4 AN line handle? Need help (TNT)

I had a dyno this weekend and I was dynoing a 200 shot. My N/A numbers were 342 HP and 358 TQ. We tried my N2O run and only came up with 442 HP and 697 TQ on a 200 wet shot. Im missing over 100 HP from this. We think the -4 line is too small to handle that much N2O through it. Or the TNT bottle valve cant hang? Everything else worked fine. I just went pig rich at 4000 RPM+, 10:1+ <img src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" border="0"> Help. <img src="gr_sad.gif" border="0">

Ill have the graph when I get it scanned.

i forgot who it was, but someone said that there is a point in which you can keep upping the jets, but won't gain anything. although, no gains from anything more than a 100 shot would be kind of weird. back the jets down to a 150 and see what happens. good luck man. try getting the a/f ratio to where it's supposed to be in that 4k+ range and see what happens.

Country,
The valve will support over 500hp and the line is good to 280hp so00 I0000 dont believe that is where its at. I do see some things on the dyno graph that are definately effecting power though. Call me at the shop and I'll give you some ideas. Ive got several 200hp cars out there that dynoed 204rwhp-208rwhp so you have somthing going on , I'll be happy to help you work it out. Happy Nitrousing <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[Burnout]" />

I just noticed on that on the graph where it spikes to 15:1. I believe the wideband started to fall out. I seen the guy kick it back in. Thats why it spikes. I did ATAP before the runs and was rich (.910-.930 range). I dont know what else it could be. Ill call tomorrow. <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">
