Default 150 Question

Well I am trying to get into the 6's in the 1/8 and my N/A times are 7.5 so do you think a 150 shot would get me in? Also what do I need to worry about running a 150 shot? I have an upgraded fuel pump, TR6's, FPSS, WOT switch, and a window switch w/ 1st gear lockout. Just wondering if I make this jump up to 150 shot what I should worry about. Thanks in advanced for the replies.

I dont see you dropping that much time, not with a 1st gear lockout...unless this is one scary nitrous hungry bitch. Any tuning? I'd pull a couple * of timing, at least log it and see how everything is going.

Brad8266-I currently have a 224/228 585 ex 585 int on a 112 LSA, LT's w/ X pipe, LS6 intake, 3600 stall and some ET streets if that helps.

CAT3-I have had 3 degrees timing pulled @ WOT between 3000-6000.

Thanks for the replies guys.

Don't lock out first, use a progresive and you will be easily in the 6's.

Is that -3 from stock? If so, you should log it, but I would think you'd be good. I agree, a progressive controller over the 1st gear lock out, but I personally would suggest a Window Switch over either, then you go for the full times.

have you still got the 10 bolt ? with traction 6.90s - will be easily attainable but you will have to spray the whole way,atleast a 50-75 shot out of the hole to drop that 60 '
