Hoping so, Wade.

I need to stop procrastinating and do some logging....

Might start tomorrow :lol:

Tyres: 265/65R17 Bridgestone AT's

I actually love these tyres. For what I do and what I dish out to them, they are holding up really well, over 30 thousand on them, another maybe 8-10 in them

The Innovate gear looks awesome, the MTX-L wideband is linkable to their data logger, for those who are into recording stuff other than porn :lol:

That looks awesome jap, your certainly going to have some power under the bonnet when you finish all this!!

Just a question, are you able to measure how much extra power the nos gives, or because it's only a short burst it's difficult to measure?

It's measurable on the dyno.
As long as the system sees 100% WOT and there is enough gas in the tank, it will keep going.
Zex say a 10lb bottle should last 10-12 1/4 mile passes with 75hp jets, so if i run jetting for 55hp, should be good for at least a dozen runs.
Saying all this too, I wouldn't be attempting to use a wet shot without the fuel pump upgrade I did last year, I just don't think the factory pump would be able to supply enough keep up.

Not sure how much you know about the gas Jap but be carefull, alot of variables running the nos, tune, bottle temp/ pressure etc, dont get it right you can lunch you motor very quickly.
Not trying to sway you off just be very carefull, seen and heared many a person kill there motor with the nos. Cheap easy power but can come at a big price so easily.

A good friend of mine passed away last week, he lived for skids.
Thought it fitting to send some smoke up for him, as did many others after his wake.
RIP mate
