I spray mine off the line,with my heads being 6 years old it went 11.35@115....on motor it would run 13.0...I spray 125. After I have my heads gone through it should be 11.0's 10.90's,and a different intake. Oh 1.48 60ft. off the footbrake also!

I'm sure I wont like having to refill the bottles either.

I haven't gotten to hit the button yet. It just hasnt worked oit to get it to the track. We also need to put it on our dyno and do some more tuning. I also need to check the gears, since we put the relocation brackets and LCAs on it you hear them whine really bad. I have Richmond 4:56's. I have read they whine. My husband says they are set up perfect and that I hear them more now because of the LCAs not having rubber bushings. All I know is it drives me crazy. Plus, the LCAs and track bar rattle BAD.

I will keep you guys posted. I wont have many more opportunities to go this year. We will see.
If the gears were set up perfect then they would not whine. It's just very difficult to get gears quiet.


11.50's is very likely. Depends on your 60', the DA and track prep.

My buddy's procharged fox felt slower then my car, even though it made more then 50hp even with me on the bottle.

it just came on to smooth, as where nitrous is a good kick in the stomic hit, lol

i agree with you guys, all my s/c and turbo buddies are all about how "boost feels so good". well getting into boost feels slow compared to an instant 125hp/150ftlbs when i hit 3000 rpms. .

I also like the complete loss of traction and almost crashing the car everytime it kicks in, lol

Yeah I am a little nervous about it. That's one reason why I haven't taken it out yet. The midnight drags have been the only ones I could have made it to and I don't think a cold track would be the best to hit the button for the first time.
