Default Paxton charger 1/4 times

Ok, here is the deal having had the Nitrous set up for the last two seasons I am really thinking about switching over to a intercooled Paxton. Don't get me wrong I have been very happy with the 125 shot putting down low 12s and high 11s.I guess I am just tired of having to get the bottle filled and prefer to have the power available at all times. What kind of ETs are you folks with the Paxton putting down? Thanks in advance for your all's input.

I think Cobra334 or something close to that put down a 11.7 first time at the track in his Novi.... he ran a crappy 1.9 60ft time not sure if he used DR's or not though... stock 3.31 gears also I believe with a 5 speed MT

07 S197 went 10.89 in his stock block paxton.

A buddy of mine that comes to the track has done 11.8s at 121 mph on an 8 lb pulley. He should be running a quicker ET for his MPH.

The novi 2200 i bought is the type that uses ur engine oil to lubricate itself. This is on my wifes car, and she started telling me it was running rough. We found the supercharger had a leaking seal internally and it was putting oil into the intake, intercoller, throttle body, and engine. That had caused some detonation. I decided at that point while we had it apart to go ahead and install a good forged bottom end stroker so we could up the boost. WE did that, along with some other work. When i got the new motor broke in, I took it back to JMS Chip to tune it and they found more oil in the intercooler. So we sent it back to paxton and they went through it again, and replaced the body portion the seal went in, I forget the exact name of the internal piece. I have about 1000 miles on it so far and it is fine. Maybe I just got the one bad unit out of a thousand??? JMS said they had never seen this before. I actually bought the kit from brenspeed a couple years ago and installed myself. I guess I was fortunate in that a new engine was not a huge problem for us, or this could
have been a disaster.
