1/100th of a second? .01 seconds? You should have picked up more than that on a 50 shot. Something does sound strange. Hell, I'm happy with mine if it repeats within a hundreth of a second on motor alone. Are you sure it was spraying at all? Or did it spray and then cut out? How much timing are you pulling out of it for the spray? I would worry why I only picked up .01 and 2 mph before I worried about what size jets to go with next!! :shock:

Might clarify how much it picked up, if it was only 2 mph on that big of a shot, somethin's wrong. Is that over your other smaller shot or over motor only? To lean it out you can lower the fuel pressure (where are you now?) or increase the nitrous jet or put a smaller fuel jet in it. How much total timing (with retards) are you using when spraying?

Well I was running sniper system it has very small silinods and they were maxed out at i think 175 hp shot . I tryed to get a little more out that system by taking a hobbie drill and opening the jets out but that was no help. I bought the cheater silinoids and upped the jet sizes to were they are now. Im running 5.5 to 6 psi on the fuel flowing. It is dead headed now .My brother said it put out a cloud of black smoke when I took off. Oh im pulling out 8 degrees with a retard box .

For a 150 shot, using NOS jets, it should be a .082 Nitrous jet, a .071 Fuel jet, and 5.5 psi fuel pressure. (IMO) If deadheading the regulator, I pull the plate and set the pressure with the fuel spraying in a bucket through the plate. That way you have the correct fuel pressure when you pull the trigger...
