Well I miss the 1.5x 60' times that I was getting last year since I have been trying to run with nitrous this year. Every time I launch like I did last year all I do is spin. I have my Nitrous set up on a full throttle switch, so as soon as it goes to the floor I have an instant 114 more h.p. an over 120 more torque.
I started trying to launch at 2000, then 1800, then 1600 and as soon as the full throttle switch hits the tires go up in smoke.
Yesterday at the track I left at 1500 and put the peddal down slow until I got to 3000 rpms. That got me a whopping 2.001 60' time..lol
I endded up running a 10.970 at 128.65 with that 2.001 60'
I am not sure what the other guys that are running nitrous are using but I needed to do something so today I ordered one of the Nitrous Express Maximizers, a progressive unit that should help a lot. I will be able to control how much nitrous I am getting through out the run. If I can get my 60' back down I should be able to start running some decent times.
Here is a picture of the Maximizer, anyone had any luck with one of these??

When I get back from my Family trip on Fathers day I will have a little work to do. I also have to move all my switches since not being able to lean forward in the 5-way harness I can't reach them anymore. haha
I hope for some new and better times coming in about a month, wish me luck.

Hey Bill, I think Rob '02 just installed one of those units on his truck. I'm sure if he sees this he'll give you the details, John H

 

Tim,
lol, I think Johnny has that all wrapped up.. He will be the first and he deserves it..
It would be great to get into that club, I think there will be atleast 5 trucks doing it this year. And if I could be one of the 5 elite that would make my year.
