Default Gains with NANO?

I've seen folks on here post that they love the NANO, but what kind of actual gains are you guys seeing? I'd prefer results compared to previously using a bottle heater, cause if you didn't have a bottle heater prior to going to the NANO, then obviously the gains are greater.

So who has some actual track improvement to show with the NANO?

My car went from a 9.6 in good weather . Put on Nano on ,same weather, lost 110lbs, to a 9.1 @150 ( 350 shot _ 2 stage). The bigger the shot the more it will help. pressure = power .

The other guy won the VDPRO8 2007 (corvette only 8.50 index class).The next round. A good friend .The 110lbs lost was from my buddy sleepy driving my car for the 3rd time . This is at Etown NJ. We got it to go 9.0 deep staged at Atco nj.. Hope it helps.

Thx. corvettechallenge.info/ for vids

Thanks, that does help. So the 9.6 I'm assuming was with the bottles at full pressure. So figure maybe .1 for the weight loss, .4 from the NANO? Sound about right? I'll be spraying 300, possibly 400, on a single stage plate setup with a progressive controller, so I think the NANO should work out good for me. Just always like to see real world results.

Wow, those are alot bigger gains then i expected. I plan to shoot around a 250-300 hit this year, i guess 2 tenths or so wouldn't be a unreasonable expectation.

What kind of MPH did you pick up Streetvet?

I have been able to get 8 passes at a 175 shot and picked up .15/2mph with one full 15#er.
