time to cliff note the comparison parameters and finalize it.

ENGINE TEMP = 185*
Runs were in 3rd gear 65 mph
Torque converter unlocked
Wideband O2 in passenger front O2 location before cat
Bottle pressure 1000 psi
window switch set to 3300-6000 rpms
weigh bottle before and after each run
refill bottle after 3 lbs used ( to eleviate pressure drop from being too low)
using the .062/.033 NX jets (150 rwhp)

car for testing:
2000 pontiac formula
auto
3.73 gears
yank 3400 converter
SLP airlid
k/n filter
bassani tru-dual exhaust
tires - 26 x 10.50 - 15 mickey thompson ET Streets on factory 16 x 8 wheels. tire pressure 24 psi.
will use stock tune

at least two runs on each nozzle.
this is for each nozzle
run #1 swap nozzle only using the .062/.033 NX jets (150 rwhp).
runs #2+ make each nozzle the same a/f ratio if different

now, we need to discuss what the ideal a/f ratio to go by. i say 12:1. anyone disagree???

What size shot are you doing, a 200rwhp. that'll help determine how rich/lean you should shot for.

.062/.033 jetting. this is supposed to be 150 rwhp. the 12:1 a/f ratio is what i was at when i tested the nx and ny-trex nozzles.

how old is the shark nozzle that you are using?? I have an older one If you want to test new against old, or maybe there have been no running changes to that nozzle.
