Default Gains from 150 Wet NX from a 11.9 car?

I have a bolt on car that has run 11.94 @ 112 and was wondering what the car should run on an NX 150 Wet shot? My friend thinks it would run close to a 10.5, but I have a hard time believing it. I have plenty of traction and a 3210 lb A4 car.

Also, is this the right kit for me or what do you recommend?

TP4200
Drag suspension
Bogarts, LSX/TB, and 80 lbs less coming soon.


Thanks.

I don't think you will gain anywhere near that much with that converter.

I forgot to mention that I'd be switching back to my old 320 Vigi. What do you think?

i would say you should at least run high 10s if not the 10.50 like you want. usually a 150shot is a instant second if not more off your time.

Going back to the other converter will make you a 12.2 or so car, and therefore you will probally run high 10's on the juice as long as you have a 1.5 60ft or better.

Hmm, I see. I really don't think it's worth the hassle and risks. Thanks for your help. I think I'm going to run H/C and see where that puts me at first.

3210 lb car...how did you do that??? Are you runny a stock 4l60e? I hope not, because it is not going to last long spraying...

You are not going to loose .3 from TP4200 to a Vig3200 converter... Maybe .1 - .15 at the most especially on a stock motor..

Yeah, I think I only gained about 2 tenths from it at the most. I don't know, after doing some research on the NX kit, I think I'm just going to get the car in the tens on motor first, then look into a Nitrous system.
