Carter01.. Have you thought about doing a nano setup? I had fantastic results switching to a nano, my 1/4 and my traps increased.

Good luck bro

Thanks guys!!!

@ATV - Haven't really considered NANO, still trying to learn how to tune! lol...

@Lean Pocket - Honestly I don't have an opinion on NANO, I haven't done my research on it.

@02SOMWS6 - Just give me a holla, I will help you all I can.

wow your car is so impressive. Its legit crazy fast, and the combo just seems to WORK amazingly together. If you dont mind could you pm me how your nitrous is activated I.E wiring through trans brake and such. I was thinking a interupt relay when transbrake on and as soon as i release its instantly on at 3700-4000rpm. How is yours done?

Probably because your tune was off, the Nano most likely leaned it out thats why it picked up.

It cant keep up.

My tune is fine, I upped my fuel jets and my plugs look where they needed to be. Its only a 150 shot. The initial hit was a big difference compared to before, the traps, 60' and 1/4 times were improved with my experience.

Stangkilr basically sold me on the NANO fwiw... however;
Chris from nitrous outlet told me it was as advertised
Theres also a 100 nano shot stock heads cam and ls1 intake camaro running 11.1

^^ Thats a good read too..

I'm not trying to sell carter on it, I was just wondering if he had considered it and if he had any opinions on it. Either way, even if he did try the nano I don't see it being counter productive with his setup. I value his opinion so I thought I would ask.

Congrats. keep an eye on timing as the weather cools. if your adding fuel becasue the air gets better its making more power and probably needs less timing. if you were conservative before than it will just get closer to that edge. if you were on it it can bite you.
