Bottle pressure effect on ET

#1 Post by DriveWFO » Fri Dec 16, 2005 9:04 am

The last day our track was open this season, I finally got to make some passes with nitrous. I don't have a bottle heater, hell, I don't even own a bottle (or two) yet. The air temp that day was low 60s and I remember the bottle pressure being around 700psi. How much could I be leaving on the table not having the bottle up to 1000-1200psi?

The correct answer is a ton!!!! Get a heater and tune your system reading the plugs, you may gain a lot more then you ever imagined!!!

What system do you have?

This is the 125hp non-adjustable PowerShot kit.

The margin for error is pretty friendly on a 125 shot. Get a heater for sure, bring it up to about 900-950 psi or so.

The above post was me not loggin in. whoops.

A freind of mine has the Cold Fusion program and it seems to work pretty good. We had too much jet , not enough bottle pressure and too much fuel pressure. We are now going faster with a 92 jet instead of a 110 jet and using a lot less nitrous.

Dave, my guess would be at least a tenth or two.
