That's what you get for working that Graveyard shift Todd.

No I haven't installed any additional trans coolers. I am planning on getting the new BHR AT Radiator in a short period of time though. That has a larger capacity AT cooler than stock does.

you have jeff right there, you need to strap a turbo on that.

i know eventually i'll have turbo + nitrous, but i dont want to be the first to do it.

im hoping 300whp + 65 shot will be good for 12s. but thats yeaaarss off.

I'm coming for you Kersh4w

That's something we have been talking about. But I think I will work on bettering the tune and a 75 shot and work up to a 100 shot.
I do not recommend anyone just slapping larger jets into their N2O system and thinking it will work. This is going to be a time consuming effort to not blow up the engine.
Proper tuning and lots of nail biting testing.

BRING IT #$%#$!!

i sincerely hope you post a 14.4 slip. (the day after i post a 13.9 slip.)

yushi, call it nos again and i'll punch you in your nuts. its nitrous. nos is a brand name. its like calling all cars hyundais. do you enjoy driving your hyundai?

anything larger than a 65 shot is risky, but easy has bhr and mm within easy reach. he is very lucky.

easy, it would be cool if we ever drag raced each other. if you ever make a road trip this way or me that way, which might happen, we definitely have to stop by for a bit of racing.

Sounds good Kersh, I'm looking for that 14.00 second barrier.
By the way I just put in the 75 shot at MM's house a little while ago. We are very conservative on the tune and timing right now. pulled the high end leading timing back a couple of more degrees and the AFR's are 11.0, under full load. Now it's the scary time. Tuning!

Yes. There is a thread on the Cobb Accessport. I might suggest reading it.
