average ET gain on a 200 hit? I know results are going to very from car to car, like 60ft times, even from auto to m6. Im juss looking for an average ET/mph gain to give me an idea. Thanks.

Yes, a 200 shot on an 11 second car will gain a lot more than say a low 9 second car.
1.5-2 second ET drop on an 11 second car with a 200 hit .....approximately.(depending on where the shot happens or using a controller)

It depends on how efficient your car is N/A. I know guys who barely run 11s N/A but can run high 9s on a 250 shot. Then there are others like mine who only pick up 1.2 seconds on a 200 shot in the 1/4.
My car is pretty efficient n/a and the last time I sprayed, I went from 7-teens in the 1/8 to 6.30s in the 1/8th and picked up 11-12 MPH on a 200 shot.
Also, some people I know who race at higher altitude said they pick up far more than people closer to sea level.

Im juss going to say 1 second as a conservative et gain and 10mph as a conservative gain on the mph. My car is the stock ls1 now run 8.03 with a 1.71 60ft. This gives me a good idea on my winter project.
I went from a 7.2@96.8mph NA to 6.47@106.8 on a 125 shot. I'm stepping up to the 200 shot myself soon. (Dec 7th 1/4 mile track as well) I don't expect to see massive gains going up only 75hp. It matters BIG time how quickly you can bring it all in. I went from 1.50 (4500 transbrake launches) 60's to 1.43's leaving off idle and bringing it all (125) in at 2800rpms. I would have transbrake launched it but was having issues.
I also run at a higher DA (3400 on a good day) so as mentioned above, I'm curious if my setup would gain any getting closer to sea level. That's something I'm interested in.
Good Luck

Thanks for another idea. The main reason I was trying to get an idea of a 200 shot is im putting my tsp ls7 in this winter. That alone should be around a 200hp increase than my stock ls1. That should easily put me into the six's 1/8th mile.
A 100 shot would be simple to do on that motor to take me even deeper in the six's. This is a m6 car by the way, reason why im being very conservative on gains.
