That's cool Coupe Cars are wicked quick they're so much lighter to start with they've got a big advantage. I'm spraying 150 with a Nitrous Works kit. I was spraying 125 then I talked to the guys at nitrous works (owned by Barry Grant) and they told me to go ahead and throw the 150s in because a 150 shot is like 123 hp or something like that at the wheels.
I think I could get down into the 12.2 range on the spray if my car would hook. What I've done is I'm running on Hoosier Quicktime Pro DOT's. I do my burnout and arm the nitrous after that, I've got everything hooked to an MSD window switch which I think is a must for a straight shift car, one missed gear and boom.
I pull up to the line get staged and on nitrous I rev the car to 3500 and hold it. When the last light lights I floor it and dump the clutch at the same time. The nitrous is on a WOT switch so as soon as the pedal hits the floor and as long as the car is above 3000 it sprays and you're gone. Then I just shift, I've been granny shifting but just shifting quick. I've done it speed shifting the only thing is it blows the tires in second and third and really slows me down. I've also tried other types of launching but that seems to work the best. I've tried coming out at 4500+ just like I do on motor and we've also tried launching on motor and rolling out then spraying it but it still just blows the tires when the nitrous hits. Overall the 3500 RPM thing seems to work the best.
What kind of ET gain did you get out of those 1.7 rockers?
