Default 300 shot?

I'm getting my car dyno tuned next weekend and I need to know what to prep for. This is going to be the first time spraying the motor, I have 2 stages a 125 maf and 180 DP the motor is about 11.5 to 1 maybe 12 to 1. I was thinking of putting a NGK tr7 or 8 in the motor, I have a timing tuner for the DP kit. Can I spray a 300 shot on pump gas with the right timing and plugs?

Id gap em at like .030-.032, you better have at least a 7 heat range plug but I would run an even colder one. Better pull a lot of timing too, try like 14 degrees of total spark advance to start with. I would not be running it pump gas either, i would use a standalone cell with 110 in it.

Well the problem with that is the NX NXL kit pulls fuel right from the fuel rail so I can't do a standalone on my DP kit. I was thinking of having the motor tuned for the 125 shot and letting the timing tuner pull the extra timing for the DP.

Anything over a 200 shot is going to require a stand alone fuel cell for the nitrous hit.

pump gas with 7's and no standalone. good luck. it might live on the dyno or maybe an 1/8 mile, butgood luck running the1/4.

id say if you runall from your tank run 110 run atleast an 8,andpull some timmingfor sure.

i run 8s on the street and it's just fine. I did not notice a difference from a 6 to an 8 driving wise, but i found idle quality better with a 6.

26x/26x in a 408. That's like a 1300rpm idle, open cutouts

Thanks for the compliment

Well looks like I'm going to be getting a stand alone fuel system. I'll just have to ditch the NXL kit and run the MAF kit as a two stage. Whatever it takes to get r done.
