nitrous ppl inside
 
for u guys that use nitrous,car to share any tips. i want to spray directly off the line,but is it safe enough,or should i atleast wait till im 20-30 ft down track,my plans are to spray in first to get that turbo spooled up fast,then prolly spray threw 2nd gear but thats about it .
btw ill be playing with a 35 and 50 shot,and possibly if everything holds together well i may be tempted to go for the 75 shot

all my cars are on window switches and throttle switches. it turns on at full throttle after 2500. with such a small shot you shouldnt have a problem

i launch on a 200 shot with no problems. just depends if your trans/tc will hold up to it, with a small shot you should be ok to spray out of the hole

thnx guys everyones been telling me not to spray from launch but wait atleast a second for the rpms to come up a bit,but considering i can get about 2,800 rpms out of the converter i figured id be fine.just wanted to see what u guys thought.right now my only weak point is my converter and ds

Turbo specs?

project89 08-21-2006 07:18 PM

T04E stage 5 .63 ar hot side p trim and .50 ar cold side 57 trim

on that small of a shot i wouldn't worry about it. i would look into a window switch and set it at 2800 or higher just for some extra added safety. i shoot a 65 shot dry off the line with the window switch set at 3200 just to get some traction. then another 65 after 4k so a 35-50 shoot shouldn't be a problem.

Have you considered getting a transbrake and leaving off boost instead?

project89 08-21-2006 08:38 PM

with the 2,400 converter im usually able to footbrake it and get some boost,but soon as i launch and move a few foot down track i lose boost for about the first 150 ft or so.i looser converter would deff help.though im pretty sure when i swap out my 4:10's for the stock 3:42's i should be able to keep boost off the line.as far a sa transbrake ive already looked into it,it would have been to costly to do

Balla 08-21-2006 09:41 PM

If you don't have boost for 150ft you have problems, and nitrous won't fix them. Even the monster single turbos Supra's don't loose boost leaving off a 2step or footbrake.

from what ive bene told the very low first gear of the 700r4+ the 4:10s is why im lossing boost off the line.supposedly switching back to my stock gears should fix that
