Default my03 vs 2003 carrera 4s

saw these 2 young guys driving around Ocean city new jersey in a 4s so i pulled up next to them with my friend in the car and asked them if they wanted to race on the parkway. so anyway we drive out to the parkway and line up we stuck with them from 3rd and 4th started to pull past me at the top of 4th. we ran quite a few times. it was fun as hell cause i just finished installing my NX kit and was running a 50 shot. i held my own pretty well but those cars have some balls. at the top of 5th they had like 3 cars. oh did i mention it was dadys car

I am surprised it wasn't closer with a 50 shot, but I don't know what Carrera's put down at the wheels.

You're serious? You were using a 50 shot and lost?

Just wondering how you like the nitrous set up so far?...I'm thinking of putting on a NX kit to satisfy me until I can get my Inline pro turbo kit...Is that much risk running a 50 shot?....

Anybody?

im running stock plugs but im not spraying anymore till i get 1 step or 2 step colder u probly need them anyway for turbo so get them now. 50 seems pretty safe to me. i wish i was going turbo but might just go sc since its easier to install and tune seems like a less hassle. we will see. 50 shot gives good accel but i didnt spray on a full bottle yet so when i do ill give u my impute and 1/4 times
