.
All mods being the same, the nitrous guy will probably walk away. Not to mention the fact that he will have FAR less traction issues then the ATI guy will have, especially from a dig. (given they are on the same tires).

I'm going to have to go with the ATI. From what I have seen, the nitrous is basically going to put the vette in the 450 rwhp range. I've seen the D1SC Procharger setups making in the 500rwhp range. Also, both cars will have traction issues, but the blower has the power all the time, so if there is the slightest delay in the spray, the blown vette will get ahead, and theres no way the sprayed vette will catch up.

I think thats going to be a tough call. Considering both have the same set-ups, I think I would lean toward the ATI. Good points are made on both sides though.

I'd go with the blower guy. However the nitrous guy will go home with a better feeling. Knowing that he spent a very small fraction of the price to spray his car and hang (if not beat) the blower guy.

well the D1-SC has never made 500 rwhp from what i have seen here in houston (with the mods you listed)... and we are at Sea level with nice thick air for a blower to thrive. Even the magnachargers struggle to break over 470 rwhp.

Mind you, you said that this car has no headers or anything to really open the car up on the exhaust side, so this car is not breathing easy as well. Do you know how much boost he is running on his stock bottom end?

if this race is from a roll, i can maybe see this blown vette winning, but from a dig, the nitrous car will eat him alive.

I've seen plenty of P1's break 500rwhp, so its not a problem for D1's. The amount of boost is a big factor as well.

Oh you were talking about the P1? oops... ok well if the P1 break 500, then I am assuming the D1 should still pass the 150 shot.
