what would you think?
if i added another power adder(N02) to my car so that it would pull of line harder would you think less of my times?
50 shot to spool to 10psi and then cut 1.4 1.5.
would that still seem impressive?

You must be bored! 
The small shot will help you spool up faster.
I think your done with this project, sell it and start another.
I'll talk to Lisa and sooth the blow with some fresh loafs of Italian bread to sweeten the deal.

j/k, Nick. 
I used to get 8psi at 5k against the 2-step with a 6spd. if you don't already have one, get a 2-step.

To much time on your hands with all that cold weather and snow. Move to Texas and you can drive year around.Yea do the shot of of Juice. Why not do a progressive shot start at 50 and bump up to 100, that will put a new meaning to a whole shot

I hate morons.
THANKS YOU!

Nick here's the bottom line.
You don't need any more gazz after what I heard your cooking was like!
Don't put a shot on as your car is not 100% dialed i. Like I told you when you first started tunning it's going to take you a very long time to get it dialed in just right. Now you are dialed in closer on the street but you only made a few passes at the track. Log at the track next time there is a test and tune session and just keep that file for track use only. Your alky kit wasn't working and your were only leaving the line @ 4 psi. Sool it up to 8-9 psi and put some 28" slicks on the car along with some skinnes.
You'll be in the low nines and close to a buck and a half with your trap speeds.
The bottom line is you don't need to run gazzzzzzzz like some others are to be hitting the numbers that I said above.
Now get off the computer and hang out with Lisa before you have no agency, house or car!

Hey Nick, I don't think its less impressive of a time no matter how many power adders you have because one thing we know is that they all have to work well together or KABOOM! 
So I believe its more impressive to run multiple power adders because it becomes more complex to tune. Its easy to tune and adjust for one power adder but add others and try to find the sweet spot is a lot more fun and requires more skills in my opinion. I am always more impressed when I see everything including the kitchen sink under the hood.... just imagine hearing your turbos spool up and then you purging nitrous before you launch... NOW that would be downright intimidating!! You have won respect no matter what the outcome!

My gas has not been turned on and is off until I get mine dialed in.... As Jay has said you really don't need it and neither do I... we just had no idea that the Paxton was going to make as much power as it did since we had no prior numbers before making the build. Nine's is plenty fast for me right now.. Good luck in whatever you decide Nick... You have one helluva a car as it is and its not even dialed in yet....

I need to blow the motor out as the car is covered and on the tender. If the weather holds for the rest of the week and they decide to chill on the salt and sand on the roads here it's a done deal.
