It's been almost 3 years since I have dynoed my car. Since then I have changed exhaust, oil pan(Canton), electric water pump, removed ac&ps, and changed to a Ford 9". I wanted to see where I was at since then. All numbers are thru a full exhaust and pump gas. My previous best was 477rwhp and 440rwtq. I made 502.3 rwhp and 481.8 rwtq N/A on a Dynojet. Then, for the hell of it I sprayed a 200 shot of nitrous. I just pulled some timing, but still had pump gas. With the nos... 720.3 rwhp and 790.0 rwtq. Man... that nos is some fun stuff!! I will have to try to get to the track next Friday and see how it runs.

That is just plain sick, NOS is amazing when properly used. Your motor NA is a mostor but on spray WOW
What NOS system are you running? I am considering a 150-200 shot my self but still am undecided on the set up.
again congrats on te new #s over 500 RWHP on motor that is amazing
Nice! On the switch I would definately expect some 8 second passes!
8s take no less than 950rwhp at 3400lbs
750 rwhp for mid 9s @3400 lbs.
Its crazy how the need for more HP goes expodential as ETs drop.
I ran a chick in a 8.15 sec ride last weekend in the TOP Eliminator class - I went 10.3@135 - and she went 135MPH in the 1/8 mile chasing me down - you should see what that looks like when your getting chased down by something like that. Your going 135 and they fly past you like your standing still.
He should with the juice see some 9s if you can launch on the juice and plant the power- that is the tricky part when you start making LOTS of power - But that is a good problem.
