I was wondering the same thing man. You are one of the fastest N/A cars. Hope you find the answer you are looking for.Goodluck. ;)
I'm no "12secv6" or anything but how about trying a 100 shot?? You seem to have only times for a 75 shot. Not rocket science but I't worth a shot.
Now that I think about it... it doesn't add up.... 14.3 N/A, and only 0.8 sec gainfrom 75 shot??? Weird....

How do you warm your bottle Kris? I rememebr back in the day you said your top end was hurting? Do you have a dyno graph? I'm thinking more/consistant bottle pressure could be a helper...What's your pressure after a run?

Don't you still have fuel and knock issues? Try running a little more octane fuel... That might get rid of some of your knock. Can you get some 100 octane out at your local racetrack? It's worth a try. With some tuning, you should be 12's no problem.<a href=\"http://www.fullthrottlev6.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.fullthrottlev6.com</a><br /><a href=\"http://www.chitownracing.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.chitownracing.com</a>Comment

I beleive all the fuel at my track is Leaded and not for O2 sensor cars. I have got the fuel pressure problem fixed it was a leak in the line. I am still getting the Walbro intank Fuel pump after chrismas. I really want to hit 12's before i put my cam in.<b><a href=\"http://www.sick-sixx.com\" target=\"_blank\">SICK-SIXX MEMBER</a></b><br />NA 14.345 with a 1.863 60 foot<br />Nitrous 13.03@99.5 with a 1.63 60 foot<br /><br />2000 Camaro 3.8L A4: USE TO HAVE Comp Cam 210/220 .535/.547 113lsa 111 I/C, Port and Polished Heads, NX Wet Kit 100 Shot, CPRA made by CP, RK Sport HeadersComment

Double check on the race fuel... You might be suprised. I know a few peeps that have run 110 leaded rarely w/ no problems in a 95 Eclipse, but that would be a last resort. You might be able to find a local gas station that sells 100 unleaded or 104, just buy a 5 gallon gas can and bring your own. Invest in a laptop and autotap, this is an invaluable tool when running on the gun, you dont wanna jet up until you get your issues squared away, otherwise you are just asking for melted pistons.<a href=\"http://www.fullthrottlev6.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.fullthrottlev6.com</a><br /><a href=\"http://www.chitownracing.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.chitownracing.com</a>Comment

That's cool, how much KR are you seeing in 3rd? That's exactly where I was getting my peak KR.... I had a burned plug wire.

how many knocks per run? if you are getting less than 10 at 3-5 degrees, it's not too big of a deal...actually, that much knock for such a large nitrous shot i would think would be pretty normal. however, i wouldn't suggest running the 100+ octane on your car. a lot of cars won't even run with that high of octane gas. but i would buy an octane booster, and put about 1/3, or half in your gas tank before you race, maybe raise your 93 to about 97. i don't think it's a good idea to surpass 100 octane on our engines though, but to each their own.2000 NBM M6 Camaro Z28<br />323/335Comment

That is prety low bottle pressure. Most wet kits like around 1050psi for best performance.
Bumping the bottle pressure up another hundred or so psi should net you another tenth or more.

Could be driver, track, car, tuning, bottle psi etc.
First, you should be able to maintain bottle psi on one complete pass, start with 1100 at the line and be maybe at 1000 lowest on a full bottle.
75 shot I got to a 13.05 in so so weather and a heavier car.
75 shot can get into the 12's (mine could have but I'm not motivated to lower the shot)
You are weighing your bottle once it is filled correct?
How do you warm it? Bottle warmer, blanket, nothing, open torch, short warm, or long warm?
Dyno time and wide band it for tuning
I run stock fuel pump (80,000 miles on it)
Stock injectors
minimum 93 octane, max 100 usually 93-94 though
knock sensor, what is that? never checked mine [img]smile.gif[/img]
Give a complete list of mods, track times, burn out procedure, bottle warming method, suspension etc etc etc.

so james your still running the stock fuel pump with the 100 shot. are you using the boost-a-puump still? i was thinking of going to the walbro but i'm dreading the install. i might just slap on the boost-a-pumpComment

Still trying to find oil leak on my Camaro, it’s a tough one. I think it is the oil pressure sender myself. Leaking when raving and going into boost....3 days ago
