Is this for a car or the truck in your sig?

Anyhow,

Assuming you hook, nothing breaks, and your tune is on. I would say mid to upper 10.

this is for the truck in my sig. remember its an extended cab silverado so its heavy and not as aerodynamic as a camaro. knowing that would yall still say it could make 10's? i have zero experience with nitrous but my tuner has been around the block and he's helping me out. i doubt that i will be able to spray out of the hole but i do want to hit it as soon as i can keep traction

I see bottom 11's on nitrous.....the faster you go the more power it takes to drop ET.

Here are some ET improvements I had with some old combo's
11.6 to 10.9 on 150
11.3 to 10.5 on 150

This was a 3400# formula w/out traction issues

is that spraying outa the hole? traction is on my side right now but i think sprayin it outa the hole will break it loose. im doing 1.69 60' times on motor. i would love to get it into the 1.5's.

i plan some cal-tracks too so i may be able to get it outa the hole but i doubt it. any other insights. how down in the 11's do you think?

awesome. that helps a TON. so if i drop 1/10 from my 60' for a high 1.5x and pick up 9-10mph in the 1/4 im looking at a 11.3ish run what would i need to do to hit that 10.99 mark

my guess is it would takt 2-250hp of nitrous and dead hooking it.

It will all depend on how the motor was setup but I would say yes. I would talk to the people that built the motor as they would be the best ones to talk to concerning HP limits.

yea thats what i thought. the engine builder builds the fastest motors around here so im prett sure its built right. he just isnt a nitrous guy, he likes turbos better. but as u can see i didnt build a low compresion motor. if its built right whats my limit for how much i can safely spray?
