My mods are: Flowtech O/R X-Pipe going to stock mufflers ( I LOVE the sound this makes but it's a lil bit Too quite, but I like it.), K&N Air Filter, Steeda Underdrive pulleys, Steeda Timing Adjuster, C&L Intake tube, Accufab 70MM TB, C&L Plenum, NX 100 shot, 26x10.5 ET Streets. I also disconnected the front sway bar. Stock rearend, stock clutch, stock tranny, stock shifter.<br /><br />The slicks were Hooking really good. I had the pressure at 12psi. The first time I launched I launched at 4000rpms, It Hooked really good but it bogged really bad. So the next time I tried it from 4500, still bogged. Thats as high as I went, the night was going good so I didnt want to press my luck. I got videos of all of my runs ( BIG THANKS TO MIKE D. THE CAMERA MAN!)<br />It was also 100* out side!!!!!<br /><br />First run: Off the bottle.<br />.051<br />2.149<br />5.983<br />9.120<br />78.304<br />11.796<br /><br />14.056@100.234<br /><br />Second Run: 0ff the bottle.<br />.106<br />2.124<br />6.059<br />9.266<br />76.808<br />11.999<br /><br />14.3@99.106<br /><br />Third Run: Off the bottle.<br />.073<br />1.984<br />5.752<br />8.871<br />78.914<br />11.531<br /><br />13.780@101.154<br /><br />Fourth Run: ON the Bottle.<br />.064<br />2.046<br />5.666<br />8.596<br />85.160<br />11.055<br /><br />13.184@102.883- wasnt ready to shift to 4th and missed it, coasted through the traps....<br /><br />Fifth Run: ON the Bottle.<br />.216<br />2.005<br />5.584<br />8.520<br />85.225<br />10.961<br /><br />13.053@107.942<br /><br />Sixth Run: ON the Bottle.<br />.120<br />2.048<br />5.633<br />8.552<br />84.893<br />11.004<br /><br />13.098@107.769<br /><br />Seventh Run: ON the Bottle. This was the final round. I was going up against a FREAKIN STATION WAGON. He was dialed in at 17.80.<br />.026<br />1.992<br />5.640<br />8.601<br />83.995<br />11.083<br /><br />13.199@106.702 got beat by .085<br /><br />I didnt have as much Bottle pressure on the last run, could that result in .2 of a second? I dont understand what happened on the last run. But I ended up getting a runner-up trophy so i'm happy. Nothing broke, so I am really happy. <br />Congrats, to Justin in his pretty much stock Dodge Dakota/RT ran a best of 15.1 W/a 2.1 60ft. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Sicc98GT</b> <br /><small>Member # 1862</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2004,5,18,2,51,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> cut your 60 down a tad and throw some aftermarket mufflers on and hopefully you will break into the 12's <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" /> , good numbers though <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>CobraSVT</b> <br /><small>Member # 2309</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2004,5,18,9,30,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> I am telling you..

This was the fin<br />I didnt have as much Bottle pressure on the last run, could that result in .2 of a second? I dont understand what happened on the last run. <br /><br />This months Hot Rod has article on nitrous on crate engine with 650hp. Using a 10# bottle they got 225hp of nitrous. But when only 5 lbs left, it still heated to 900psi but lost almost all 225 hp from nitrous. <br /><br />Seems there is a residual amount before the 900psi pressure will move nitrous. Or something like that. I've felt same with full psi, but not much power per seat of pants.<br /><br />When I bleed the bottle before taking in to refill (won't top off), a lot of something comes out. My second bottle is now 15#. <br /><br />So yeh, I think low nitrous can easily cause loss of .2 ET.<br /><br />Anyone else same experience? <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>badazz</b> <br /><small>Member # 1773</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2004,5,19,8,24,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Originally posted by PeNiNsula302:<br /><strong> gears </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">i agree, if you out some 3.73 s or wont drive on the freeway much go with some 4.10s. this will make a world of a diifferance,,,,add a lil bit more psi on those tires and launch at 5k rpms. also get some good mufflers like magnaflow or bassani good stuff man!! yer almost there!! i see a mid 12 sec if not low 12 sec time slip in the future. you have a warranty, just make sure and take the nitrous and slicks stuff away so thier is no ?s, and tell them it just fucked up on you(not at the track) i have a buddy that has 2 new motors and 3 trannies....lol so dont be scared and have fun! <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>hidnn.o.s.</b> <br /><small>Member # 1219</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2004,5,19,10,7,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Your 60 foot times need work.
