Default Pondering a 75 dry shot....

I'm pondering a 75 dry shot on top of my current setup.

It depends on what my track results are next Wednesday, I'm hoping for mid 11's with the new found HP.

A 75 shot could put me in the high 10's.

Hmmmm.......

Don't do it Scott! It will only damage your motor then your psyche! Just kidding. I am after the same pursuit. I think I will actually go with a 150 wet shot in the near future. 10's would be awesome!

I've got the upper hand when it comes to the street (between you, me and Rich :p: ) but for how long? Especially if you get the new motor!

I'm not running N20 currently, my numbers are naturally apirated.

But a 75 dry shot in 3rd gear should get me into the 10's! :D

I believe you have pushed me over the edge...:D

You think a 75 shot will be safe and provide the extra oomph needed?

BTW, you coming to the bbq?

I believe they will be serving Viper and Porsche. :reddevil

I think a 75 would be nice but I think you should do a 100 shot if you do it at all. Have you talked with Chris about this? Do you have larger injectors right now? Safety-wise it's really about compression ratio and fuel system. It's gonna be hard to hook up with either. I can't wait to see what you run at the track with your new H/C setup alone :D :smash:

I'm gonna try and come out to the BBQ tomorrow. Are you gonna be there? My car is out of commision so I'll be driving my daily transpo Ford Exploder.

Thanks

I'll be there!

I still have the stock injectors etc.

I've talked to Chris a little bit about it.

No firm decisions yet.

I'd like to see what it does on some decent tires this Wednesday.

Sorry to hear your car is down.

How long before its up and running?

I see that Prashant and a couple of his buddies may be coming to the BBQ.

I wouldn't mind running those guys, even though I'm short on the HP to run those guys effectively.

Maybe I'll ask to borrow SW's ride...Hmmmmm......:lol:

75 shot? that's like feeding a tick-tack to a whale. you will be very bored with such a smallish shot. Once you realize that 75 shot is super safe, you will be pilling up. We've all been there!!!

You are correct sir!

Since its my first foray into N20 I want to play it really safe.

If my car was stock I would probably start out with a 100 - 125 shot.
