WTF were you thinking!

Get ready for the red and yellow to go with your car! That thing is a piece of work! Esp. the yellow rims(spray paint?) and mud flaps! I'm surpised your yellow S doesn't have any red flaps!

What did the windshield banner say? "Got Rice?" LOL!

Hey Rex, you got any dyno runs scanned in from your 75hp shot of NOS? Curious to see what a nos dyno plot looks like.

Also what gauges are in your SOS gauge pod?

I have yet to Dyno with the NOS. I plan on doing it when the weather breaks, I will post something. As for the gages, I HAD oil pressure and boost, because I was going to go turbo this spring. I also had an A/F gage in my dash near my NOS controls. What I am going to do next week is put the A/F gage up into the pod with the fuel gage. I am going to ditch the boost gage and get a nitrous gage to put near the nitrous controls on my dash. Makes more sense to me,

Cool, when you get a dyno I'd like to see it.

Sounds like a smart plan with the gauge shuffle

What gears is the NOS useable in? I imagine if you sprayed in 1st or 2nd you would hit the rev limiter pretty quick.

Do you arm the system and then press a button to spray a 75shot, or do you arm the system and it sprays whenever "rules" are met(sprays only when RPM are 5000-7500 and throttle is wide open and switch is armed)?

I have it set up so that it will only spray if the switch is armed, and the throttle is fully depressed. I am trying to find a controller that works on distributorless ignition that will not allow NOS below say 3500 or above 8500 RPMs. Until then though, I usualy go through 1st, then flip the switch up, and go through gears normaly being carefull not to redline so I shift early. I also have a button in a custom knob that i built which can be used if desired, but will not stop operation if not pluged in.

So does that mean that in gears 2-6 you have roughly +75hp in each gear as it is spraying the whole time it is armed and your foot is to the floor?

I'm anxious to see how that would compare to my supercharger on the highway this summer. Number wise that is about the same as my car.

Interesting....

Yeah, me too. From what I have heard, the HP numbers are pretty close. We will see, and we can also have fun doing a few highway runs to test our theories

Only down side to the bottle is that where your power from the charger is always there, mine isn't. But I can say it does make quite the difference. I cant wait to find out. You have gears though right? Might complicate our trials...
