Finally got around to running the slicks/75 shot at the track after a winter of waiting.
Shit that Matters:
Car is on Stock Turbo, S0 and no porting. Q116 Used. Car weighs 28xx w/ me.
Mods-
NX 75 Wet Shot
3" o2/Downpipe
Kinetic WGA @ 17-18 on nitrous (12ish off)
HSF1 on @ 10psi
Hard UICP w/ RS
WOT BOX
Solid Trans mount w/ U/L inserts
24.5"x8.5" MT ET Drags.
Fourth Run-Slicks @~8psi. Bottle @ 1000-1100psi.
Better 60'(1.861). Still getting cooler out. Haven't gotten slower throughout the day If I had shifted a little later this run from 1-2 it would have been a 12.0 I think. It hooked so much better that I shifted into second earlier, almost on expectation of earlier runs, expecting it to not have come so soon.
Video-bounces hard on the 1-2 shift
Fifth Run-Slicks @~8psi. Bottle @ 1000-1100psi.
Video-
I'm happy with it, and i know i can up the boost more, wait for a colder Wednesday afternoon and definitely click off an 11. The car definitely has it in it. After that i think its time for a FMIC and off nitrous tune with the meth so I can spray it and run over 20psi.
Hey man nice pass! Are you spraying off of the line?

I would'nt worry toooooo much about the FMIC. In my opinion the FMIC is the very last thing I'd change on a nitrous car.

No i wasn't on those passes. I wanted/thought i could grab an 11 on spraying just the 2-3-4, and got damn close. I think i can almost for sure get it without 1st gear nitrous, as long as i can nail a good 60 and smooth 1-2 shift.

yea i know man. I keep telling myself that...must be the inner ricer telling me i "need" it.
needs a tune, and ported exhaust mani/turbo. then i can try and keep up with that bastard that just ran 11.56.

LOL, I bet you will be close very soon!!! I'm soooo glad to see some nitrous cars getting into the 11's!!! Big turbo my ass!!!

What gets me about his run is his mods are fairly simple
Looks like he has the basics, a couple of ported pieces and a great map clamp & nitrous tune!!!
It's not like he had a modified stocker like an E1 or SST. I can't remember off maybe I'll look into a AFC for tuning
his mods were:
Mods....
The Mods...
Stage 1
94 Octane mixed with 110
Stock Ported Turbo @ 19-20psi
75 shot NX wet nitrous system, 10lb bottle w/ MSD digital window switch
AGP Wastegate
Tial BOV
AEM Ram Air Intake w/ K&N Filter
DASMopar Map Clamp
Big Intercooler
180 Thermostat
Maxxfab 3in Full exhaust with Side Exit
Mopar Stg1 springs on stock struts
AEM Wideband
Ported stock intake manifold and ported throttle body
AGP solid motor mounts
ACT 6-puck sprung clutch
24.5x8.5 M&H Slicks w/ Skinnies on the back
No backseat
Carbonfiber hood
With the great results that people are getting with the Diablo Sport, I wonder is you can load/run a tune from that, and then adjust nitrous via the fuel pill and have a good safe overall tune? kinda like can be done with a map clamp.

I bolded things i dont have. Not saying much, but my suspension is really hurting my car i feel, and flowing more on the exhaust/intake side never hurts.
I think im going with the DS/AFC2 Rhunter, and plan on getting a "good" daily driverish setting type tune, and then going at it with my nitrous jets and seeing how much i can get. Just seems like im losing so much without a way to run more boost/adjust timing, let alone the benefit of more boost when im spraying.
