just need to play with your timing, bottle pressure and such
bottle pressure was at 1100 psi, I have a heater, I only did 2 no2 runs, I spent the morning trying to keep the bottle psi up so when I was ready to use it , it was a go...however so much elec usage due to bottle heater, elec w/p, ect ect when I went for the second no2 run battery was dead , so I had to have a fellow racer charge my battery = cost me a bunch of time......anyway, I was happy enough with the times it turned that I may focus more on lowering the et on just the motor next time around next private event isn't until October, I hope to have the s/c all tuned on the vert and run it then

Wish I had enough patience to only race twice a year, haha.

car's been together 2 months max, and I already want to tear it apart and change everything up.

If only I had the cash to do it.

lol, I like the sound to but as far as I'm concerned, the exhaust Imo may be holding me back the catback is a mac 2 1/2 set up, flowtech x-pipe and crappy 1 5/8 flowtech headers, but for now it all stays, I'm done tinkering with the car for now.
