I have a YankSS4000... I heard that you really couldn't use nitrous off a launch with it. Is this true? I was wanting to do a 100shot, will it be useless (Im not talking about traction, Im refering to it blowing through the verter). Thanks!

I would be interested to hear opinions on this as well. TTT

 

In the same boat. I have a 4000 TCI and planning on spraying would like to hear some info as well!

 

try it and tell us...

 

I am in the same boat.... I am going to stall it up and let'er rip out of the hole with the 100 shot! It might flash to 4800 or so put thats still fine with me!

 

Anyone with experience in this.... thoughts? opinions? advice?

 

TTT Cmon... Someone chime in!


I would think so long as your verter has an anti balooning plate your golden?

 

I ran a vig4000 last year and it worked good. best 60ft. was 1.36. Heres a Vid of how it leaves.

yeah my buddy has a vig4200 and custom comp cam and he hit it with a 150 right off the line did fine for him. I am geting almost the same set up and i am going to do the same.

 

you guys make me jealous. i should have bought an A4.

 

Ya as long as you get a nitrous converter then you will definitely feel the juice.. It shouldn't just blow through the converter either.

 

Better than ****, You should have held it

 

I have a 99 ta with a 347 with H/C combo and th-350 tranny ptc 4900 on the motor and t brake and when i hit it with a 200 shot it flashes to 5900 out of the hole, my best et is 9.97 @ 134mph and my car is a pig total weight with me in it is 3865 lbs. here is a picture of the lounch.

 

Hey man i was still wondering about your setup man? Im saving now to get it PM me plz..

 

dang yall are making me wish i had of gone bigger...i got a 3600 yank thinkin on 125 it would flash to 4200 or so

 

I have a PTC 4400 and it flashes about 4900 on the motor and on the nitrous it gets up there around 5400 or a little more. I just think that it limits me, I cant go throught the 1/4 on the nitrous due to the fact that I hit the limiter at 6800 about 1100 ft or so. But I love the launch on the nitrous. 1.40, 60' on a 125 shot with the 402.

 

It will work with that converter.

The downside to high stall converters(especially cheap ones) with N20 is that you don't need as much stall as the N20 has such a NICE torque gain that could be taken advantage of with a tighter converter.

Secondly as stated above N20 can make the motor power through the converter and raise the stall/flash speed of the converter to to high of an RPM where it is no longer efficient.

 

I just need my 9" and the driveshaft, and I hope I can get my wheels up on the 100 shot... You think its possible?

 

Yes as long as the rear holds you should get it up no problem!

BTW, Girdel is spelled girdle, just an FYI

 

Not the way I spell it..
