I agree 100% but it's your car you needed to see it. To have done what you've done to the car proves to me you know your stuff. Adding more Nitrous in my eyes isn't as good as maximizing what you have

I would back off the 150 shot until a gear change if your car were mine. Again my eyes thats just too much stress on too many parts unless you have an unlimited budget.

Again great job. It was also nice everyone was able to stay on the subject.

Don't get me wrong I am not patting myself on the back. I haven't followed your progress but your mph looked off. I also knew I needed to change my approach. Bottom line, I knew from my first post here there was enough room in Ohio for us all. I often create my own problems.

Very nice. Is your car a "race car" or street/track car? I guess what I'm asking is your cars weight? Great times for a 100 shot as I've never seen a car gain basically 12 mph on a 100 shot.

I can vouch for this thing being a very streetable race car. lol he does have a spool, a cage, and a t brake. Also tasteful weight reduction. I know Jim actually drives it to work a good amount, not to mention to car shows and such

I did not want my post to sound negative, that was not the intent. I know how a car is set up and mod choices make a big difference on how a car runs. Again I have never seen a car gain 12 mph on a 100 shot. I would love to know his complete set up!

I know Jim works 3rd shift, so he may not be able to respond right away. Ill let him rattle off whatever, not sure if there is anything I am not supposed to say

It says its a all motor pass on the N20 tune.


My car runs 11.3 on motor and 9.9's on 150 shot.
if its set up for N20 and not the motor there will be a big difference between them.

Damn what a spot this driver is in.

I think there always needs to be a little mystery between what someone accomplishes and informing the world how it's done. On the flip side selling the package makes it another story.

Street/strip car, raceweight is around 3350. I usually put 100 miles or so on it a week.

Bingo, i was running 20deg of timing, NGK -8 plugs. Thats obvisously not optimium conditions for a N/A pass.

With this information I can understand the mph gains and times. Congrats and you have a sweet car!
