What do you guys think i should be running or is that about all im gonna get out of the setup?

Thanks JMAN

 

Honestly, im thinking 14 flats at least. with good tires

 

You could easily get it down to high 13's, low 14's with a decent 60'.

 

Your lucky that 100 shot of NOS didn't blow the welds on the intake.

 

Why would something like that happen? Its actually been running really good, havent had any problems....Knock on wood...

 

now me and the MaD ScIenTiSt have to ripped the block apart to replace the rings you just fried...:slap:

 

Ever seen The Fast and the Furious? They said things like I said to you, It's senseless bullshit.

 

Lol, maybe i should watch the movie again its been a long time since ive seen it...Do you guys think that getting some headers will help with the times? Ive been debating on it, also ive been reading that stainless headers are better for nitrous application....is this true? or should i just go with the ceramic coated? also if i get headers i plan on using them on my ls/vtec that im building..which i will still be spraying just alot more probably around a 200 shot..

 

wow...if you're planning on a 200-shot you better be making damn sure that the block/internals are at the very least sturdy as hell.

adding 200hp to any car, just like that, is gonna put a good bit of strain on the rotating parts and the bits that hold them together.

 

Word if you put 200 shots on the stock ls block of an lsvtec motor you can kiss your engine good bye. It won't last long. As far as the header is considered, most mainstream headers that bolt right up will only give you 3-5hp tops. The more high end header by JUN, TODA etc. will cost upwards a grand and give maybe 7-10hp. Not sure why, but this is what I have heard. Stainless over ceramic? Don't think it really matters.
