Times before and after nitrous
Any ideas of before and after times on nitrous and how much of a shot. My car is setup for nitrous and I have not sprayed it yet. I run 9.20 @ 150 mph and plan on running between 200-300 shot, just wondering what to expect.
Re: Times before and after nitrous
A 300 shot might get you to 8.50's-8.60's if you run it all the way down.

My car has been 6.44 off the bottle with the nitrous cam and converter. Its been 5.48 is that same basic setup. 5.43 with different gears. That's with about a 350 shot.

Depending on how loose your converter is you may not get as much as expected. You may blow through your converter.

I finally got a chance to run the car. With 150 shot I ran 8.50 @ 163 mph.

Inclined to agree. The faster you go, the faster you want to go......
