ok here is what is going on. i have a v6 3800 camaro. i put a 75 shot of nitrous in her. the nitrous is working great in 1st and 2nd gear. but it seems like once i hit 3rd gear the nitrous will shoot but it doesn't seem like i'm going as fast as i should, because whom ever i am racing will start to pull on me. what is going on. some one please tell me what is going on. and how to fix this. thanks

Any possibility that you are not getting enough fuel? -
Bottle PSI?
How much nitrous was in the bottle?
Running lean?

yea get that PSI higher and it will be better, not sure about in 3rd or not, but the initial hit will be a good oneComment

Was.. like 900?
Is that pre run or post run?
What is the weight of the bottle?Race car - gone but not forgotten - 1997 firebird V6

and the psi before the run?
And the weight of the bottle?
maybe time to check those plugs?
Maybe dyno tune time?Race car - gone but not forgotten - 1997 firebird V6

Do you run a fuel pressure safety switch? It should feel somewhat like it's not working as well in 3rd as 1st and 2nd, because down low you REALLY feel the torque, whereas the HP up top isn't as great of a thrill. Throw it on a dyno to see what she's doing.<a href=\"http://www.fullthrottlev6.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.fullthrottlev6.com</a> THE SOURCE!Comment

Nitrous pulls best in 1st and second gear.. when I spray my 125 shot in second gear it is insane, in third gear it still pulls but doesnt seem to be as hard.. Also if you havent changed your fuel filter I would do that too!!Jeff ..

Well, as you go into higher gears there is always less pull.
If it seems like it has lost something top end then hit the dyno.
Fuel filter, plugs, and various tune up should be first thoughRace car - gone but not forgotten - 1997 firebird V6
