Default 150 shot Nitrous results

I just had the car Dynod after installing 150 shot of Nitrous.
I will include pics of set up later. Here is the dyno sheet.
Let me know if this is about the right numbers I should be getting.
.
I have a window switch that turns on @ 3000 RPM & off @ 6000 RPM
& shifts @ 6200

if thats a wet kit you need to check your pills. your not getting a full 150 out of it. It also looks like your getting a lil fat.

Also what bottle pressure where you running???

If its a dry kit, how far away from your maf is the nozzle?? might need relocation or simply just adjusting it for a more optimal shot.

In any way we need more info on your setup. Auto / stick, year, injectors.

Not bad numbers but if there is more left on the table from a simple adjustment, might as well utilize that.

Why do you say he's a little fat? What do you tune your nitrous AFR to? I tune to 11.3-11.5:1. Leaning it out any more doesn't produce significant increases and causes a higher probability of detonation. It looks like he starts out at 12.0:1 and ends up close to 11.0:1. If anything, I would only possibly call that a hair fat depending on the bottle pressure at the end of the run and a hair lean in the beginning. Most dynos pick up their AFR data from the rear of the exhaust that has to go up a long tube before reaching the sensor, so there is usually a delay in time between the dyno hp/tq readings and AFR readings.

THe chart is too blurry on my computer to be acurate in my view. Hence why I siad it looks that way. You might can see it better. For mine I am tuning to 10.6, but I am running a 250 shot.

I dont see him getting the full 150 on his shot, ( many people dont get true numbers ) so i suggest changing things around a lil at a time to achieve a true 150 shot

Off bottle:

316.86

on bottle @ 150 shot:

431.58

That equates to a 114.72 HP gain and 131TQ gain.


To me, adjustment is needed. However if the OP is happy with his numbers, that is all that matters.

This is a daily driver. I told tuner to give me a very conservative tune.
My main concern is dependability, more so than an exta few ponies.
.
I will be taking pictures this weekend, & going to the track friday night (if it doesn't rain)

Those are strong #s, but for a 150 shot, It does seem a little low. I have a NX kit with Dave's plate and picked up 149RWHP (414/563 with TC UNLOCKED) with 150 pills, 1150psi, and 11.5AFR

I bet it feels awesome when you hit it. Need to know more about your setup before anyone can say if the numbers are right or low.

Congrats on the numbers I do admit it is a little low. I know it's a z here in abq(5600 above sea level and da in the 7 to 8k) I can't post his dyno chart without his permission but just some info.

03z stock..that means no bolt ons what so ever not even a upgraded air filter. I know some idiots think having h/i/e is stock but anywayz

N/A:355whp/362wtq
150hit:527whp/636wtq
