Thumbs up Got the Nitrous Trophy-Dyno Shootout

We had a Dyno Shootout @ Turbo Tech Inc, with 26 cars showing. I was able to pull off the N2O win, and my buddy in his Z06 got the FI Trophy (667/602), good day for the Vettes. This shootout was for true street cars.

I wasn't pushing very hard, as I had a ls1 intake on the car to move it around (LS6 has a hole in it, lol), and was down 50rwhp n/a. Anyway, about a 200shot garnered the numbers below. I know, 600hp big deal, but my combined numbers were even better than the Turbo above (got to love the n2o tq). We ran two stages and a conservative tune, with N2O coming on at 3500rpm and 4700rpm respectively. So much more left in this bad boy. i wasn't even going to run it, but just couldn't hold back.

Some may remember my dyno melt down last year, well we took the N2O crown and top combined numbers then also, but at the cost of 1-motor. So vindicated this year. Someone yells, "Fire in the Hole", like last time, but false call, lol, though it looks like flames.

Congratulations Robert! You till have a bit of room to go though since you're back on the LS1 Manifold for the time being. I'd like to see what you put down with the LS6 back on.

Gotta love the torque of nitrous. Pretty good considering the motor is choked down by the intake right now.

Good to see your ride back on street. Great numbers and a big leap for Dry. How many N2o guys were there and were any of the other guys dry?

Also, could you "accidentally" send this video to Mike Wood over there at NX. I think he's a dry lover and would appreciate it..

LOL... probably wouldnt be a good idea unless its medical grade....

I was at the dentist the other day... Got the N2O,,, dentist kept asking do you feel it..

I was like NO, up until I was in outer space... Then I told him I was good, then the trip was done...

Was my best experience at the dentist to date...
