        You just had a bad day, Try another day. You need to learn the converter also.

          Bring your car to me.... we can discuss.... and review.

          I will make it better.

          It has potential... just needs some tweaking.

              Make sure that you keep your logs, and you may want to talk to foff667 before your next run to make sure you are logging the correct things. I know there is some useless information that you can save, and there is some stuff that is really helpful.

              He is one of the reasons why LittleG is running 13s, mostly due to his HPTuners prowress.

                You need to STOP making 1 MILLION changes and stick with ONE set up... and progress slightly from there.

                EVERY other post in nitrous section... you have a wet kit.... then dry... then direct port.... then wet... I can't keep up?!?!?!?!

                It is ALL a learning experience.

                Why not list EVERY single mod right now....

                I'm talking... suspension, engine, tranny... EVERYTHING!!!!

                Then... we can go from there.

                And.... at some point come on down here to e town... we can get some track time in... and I'll givw you lots of help.

                You just need to FOCUS!

                Please... don't be offended by my response.... I have stuck w/ one mod at a time... made several passes... and learned from EVERY single mod.....

                  my focus has always been nitrous for quite some time now..i had a dry kit and wanted to run wet..so i tried it out..due to my low bottle pressure problem (i believe that to be the cause) it didnt work out..i seemed to have fixed that now..so im going to try a wet setup again..nothing was wrong with the dry kit..i got 1.3 seconds out of a 100 shot..seems to be about right for dry..it probably would've been more if the bottle pressure was over 850..i dont take offense to your response..but my choice of power adder isnt my problem..my slow NA car is

                      ok am i the only one to notice this or what

                      low bottle pressure = no power


                      if you look back at peoples dynoes and look at the psi they ran you will notice you lose BIG hp if the bottle pressure is low


                      v8 guys run 1100psi why dont yall? you would probably see a huge diffrence on et and mph im talking alot


                      one reason 12sec runs so fast i bet is because he has 2 bottles his psi drops less half as much as everyone else because he has twice as much nitrous so he maintains higher bottle pressure longer and again look at dynos the higher the psi the higher the hp plain and simple

                      i dont understand you people runnging 800psi why ?

                        Sounds like you have 1 bad night and instantly think the mods are a waste so you change everything. My very first run with the heads/cam was a 15.0. That doesn't mean the car sucks....it means it was just a bad run. Even now my best is 14.6. I'm not that bummed out, though, because I know I might be able to run a 13.99 as it is. Weather sucks, traction sucks, and I suck, but I'm not gonna blame it on the car.

                          the only thing im changing is going from a dry to wet kit..and that has nothing to do with what i ran..its simply because i believe i fixed my bottle pressure problem..which i had to do in order to run a wet kit..NOTHING to do with my times at all..i'll be running dry again this weekend..nothing changed from last weekend..just seeing if i can inject sooner and bring that bottle pressure up..so i dunno how i made it sound..but to me it sounds like you got the wrong idea

                            because on a dry kit..at 800psi..you can still use the kit..this is because a dry kit adds the correct amount of fuel according to how much nitrous it senses..you may not get 100hp out of a 100 shot..but at least you can still use it..you cannot do this with a wet kit because you add the fuel manually by placing a jet in the fogger nozzle..since your pressure at the rail is always the same you will always get the same amount of fuel added..and you will run rich enough to foul plugs, increase chance of backfires, etc..but i just removed the temp sensors from my heater so i'll be running at about 1000 - 1100psi ;)
