Default TNT = Big problem

Well I finally got that damn power ring to fit right on the TB and after melting the bellows in the oven I got it slip over everything (it looks kinda funny all melted <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0"> ) Took the car out for the first time using the NOS and with only the 75 jets in I sprayed in 3rd (A4) at 70-75 mph and still blew the tires away <img src="gr_eek2.gif" border="0"> What in the hell is going to happen when I jet it up to 150 this spring do you all think this will be safe? Motor is all bolt ons right now. I am going to dyno in the morning I will let you know what she does with only 1500 miles on it and the wet 75 shot.

Later, mrTNT

That is awesome. I will be interested in your dyno numbers. I am on a 100 shot right now, but I will be jetting up very soon to a 150. <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0"> <img src="graemlins/formula.gif" border="0" alt="[Pontiac]" />

you might as well tune for 75,100 and 150 while you on the dyno.

One more dumb quetion when this happened I hit my rev limiter prety hard <img src="gr_sad.gif" border="0"> I do not have a window switch and I was wondering what kind of dammage this can cause? In the future I don't plan on using the nitrous on the street till I get my spring tires back on 315 555r's <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

since the revlimiter has an integral fuel cutoff...you could literally burn up your pistons. my recommendation...don't do it again <img src="graemlins/gr_chug.gif" border="0" alt="[chug]" />
