Default 78mm Plate Kit Dyno Numbers???

I want to see some dyno numbers from you guys running the Nitrous Outlet 78mm plate kit. I want to see all numbers. I'm starting with a 100 shot and working up to a 150 and maybe a 200. Probably will stick at 150 though. Also for you guys who did the install yourselves how was it? Difficult, kinda difficult or simple? What was the labor time? Really want to skip the $700 shop labor cost if I can!
POST THEM DYNO SHEETS!!!

We just finished the install of the same kit on our 2004 Corvette. Besides the kit from Nitrous Outlet we also installed a NANO system, LNC and NOS WOT RPM boxes, FPS, purge system, etc. Regarding time we have been picking at it here and there in the evenings after work and on weekends as time has permitted. It was a straight-forward installation and if I had to guess (this is only a guess) I would say that with a buddy you could do it on a weekend using both days and 8 or so hours a day. We haven't had the chance to get back to our tuner yet but we make 372 at the wheels NA (bolt-on car) and with the NANO hope to be over 500.

Finally, Brandon from Nitrous Outlet has been a huge help! I've called or emailed him a half dozen times or so and he has been more than helpful and has gone above and beyond what outstanding customer service should look like. Get a wiring diagram from him for your specifics and follow it very carefully and take your time. If you have any questions feel free to send me a PM and I can try to help you out.

Good advice there. OP, I'll be installing a 78mm plate kit here soon too.

Thanks Scott! Me and my brother are probably going to do the install in his shop. I'll make sure to contact you if we run into anything funny. Thanks!

That is stout! Very nice.

Would a BR6ef not be cold enough for a 150 shot?

Very nice combination and times!

What is your best ET NA? We make 372 at the rear wheels and have been 11.58 @ 114 with a 1.50 60' in perfect air but our weight is less than 3200 in race trim. We're hoping with a 150 shot we get solidly in the 10.5x range and would like to see a 1.3x 60'.

Thanks, was my first time at the track, unfortunately i never ran it N/A. Its a full weight car i actually forgot the spare tire and jack in the back! stupid me! I'm gonna weigh it this spring and see where I'm at. This winter i ditched the t56 and went th400 with a brake and 2step. Hoping for that 10 sec slip! then seeing what it will go on a 200! I wish my car was 3200 pounds!

Probably could get away with it, but not recommended

I have a question ,my lq4 has a few mods ls6 intake 317 heads long tube headers ,598 lift cam stall conv @3600 and 373 gear Im told that the 78mm plate does not produce the power that a shark nozzle installed into the front of the mass air intake will produce better numbers than the plate ? so which is better plate or nozzle .Planning on hitting it with 100 shot ,car is not real heavy ,just a fixed roof at about 3100 lbs,anyone guess what kind of numbers at the track it will go on 100 shot

you would have to pill the shark nozzle up to a 150 shot to equal the performance of a 100 shot through a 78mm Nitrous Outlet plate. I've experimented with the two.
