finaly a decent friday and looking like a good day to spray the hell out of my z71 ...ha...haaa wish me luck guys. Last time i had a heck of a time getting out of the hole with hight 15s but hopefully nitrous will be a decent improvement.

 

ill find out later tonight

I've never used nitrous but I imagine it must become expensive.

[sablowme]

yeah to be honest it has become a pain in the butt. theres always something to add or more money that realy should be put into it to make sure things are running good. But thats the beauty of aftermarket and performance parts they never tell you estamated amount of money you will put into your car to have the product. honestly its great i love it i just havent mastered it yet. but will let you all know what happens tommorw

[Schmids5.3l]

Good luck, dont blow anything up. (knocking on wood)

[Clavin78]

Can you really expect a huge gain in performance from nitrous?

[Schmids5.3l]

Kidding right?

[sablowme]

ok guys made it back. last night was a blast

 

r/t:.630

60: 2.318

330: 6.298

1/8: 9.602

mph: 75.00

1000: 12.417

1/4: 14.838

mph: 92.93

 

See i used to never get any better than 15:83 or so, so it looks to me like a got a whole second improvement...then agin i couldnt get off the tree the first run at 15s without the bottle. You all should of saw the volkswagen golf gti go home ...ha haaaa!

[Schmids5.3l]

Good stuff good stuff. What kind of nitrous set up are you running?

[Clavin78]

Kidding right?

yeah

[Clavin78]

I think a whole second is a pretty good gain.

[sablowme]

a zex wet feed kit. only a 75 shot...but seems to be the safest way to go. I also came across a lightning that was running methenol, wich he said is safer than nitrous and cheaper but i dont know too much about methenol and honestly he was the only one that had that up there that night....not bad at 12:80s but then agin it was a lightning.

 

the kit put me back about 600 just to get you started then you have to buy a perge kit , bottle heater, and pressure gauge. of course now im sappose to be watching my plugs and i have to run 93 octain so its kinda expensive but defently a blast to have....i had numerous silverado guys curious what i did to make this 4x4 run like that so its been fun.

I was at Capitol Friday night. I didnt see you there, but i did leave after a few runs. It was around 6:30pm when i left. There were some bad cars there Friday night. It was a nice cool night for the track for sure. I beat a Ford probe (LOL) and a Altima...the guy in the Altima was quite upset...

[Clavin78]

Hell yeah!
