Nitrous Progression ramp rate
Nitrous Progression ramp rate I am getting my progressive setup for nitrous as I keep blowing the tires off trying to hit it all at once. My questions is, what is a good starting point for the ramp rate. I have it now at 30% initial with a 1.5 sec ramp. I know that is an eternity. What would be a better starting point for the ramp rate?
Thanks

Generally once you find what works: Let's use the above. 50% start with a .7 build. On a better or worse track you will only change build time. You also need to test YOUR system and see what it will tolerate as far as how low of a percent at will progress from as well as the frequency it likes based on the size of the solenoids. On a big solenoid with heavy slow moving plungers you may have the frequency set incorrectly and will won't fully open or close the solenoid until the ramp time is complete. Basically it won't be progestin.

if you blow the tire off at the initial hit tighten the extension on the shock and drop the lower control arm down 1 hole on the rear end.. I never used a progressive on my car and I sprayed an 83 jet multiple times...
So a few things to remember...
Don't fall into that thinking that on say a 200 hit that 10% =20 hp, 20%= 40hp etc etc
If you can datalog engine and driveshaft rpm it would be invaluable

That, and I bolted the rear tires down since then. I got a 3" rotation tire/wheel on one nitrous hit that night.

You also have a 9.25 SLR....even on a slick that a hell of a ratio to take 700+ without a progressive
One issue to watch out for when shortening the ramp is having the converter do odd things... I had issues when shortening the ramp too much that the converter would flash and start to couple, then as the added power came in faster it would reflash then couple harder and pull the engine rpms down.

Verdad Gallardo When it ran that 9.86 it only put down 630 at the wheels. I didn't have my nitrous tune done yet and the bottle pressure was low. Im hoping that I don't have a big issue with the converter.
