Ahh ok gotcha. You will notice a much much bigger difference running at 1100 psi. Basically like you just shot a 50 shot on the track at 900, you'll see.

Very nice! I'm hoping to drop about a second with my not-yet-mounted dry kit.
Oh boy! We are going to have some fun e-racing when we both have gas!!! I hope you are going to be running low-mid 11s...[8D]

Ebay FTW! Check there, I got a used bottle heater for only $60. Good luck, I hope you get into 12's soon, that'd be pretty cool. I have a while to go before I try my hand at the track, but I hope to break 14's lol. My goals aren't big.

Easily. Get that bottle pressure up there. Spraying a 100 shot at 900 psi is basically like spraying a 50-65 shot. Spray it at 1100-1150 and you should very easily pick up .2

Do you guys that run nitrous have forged internals? The reason I ask is as some of you may know I am doing a monte carlo project for my uncle who has colon cancer and doesn't have long to live. He wants me to build him a FAST car and right now the gm crate engine should be at 400hp and close to 425 lbs/ft, and I was looking into a 100 shot just to up his thrills for a little bit before he goes.
