yes the first go he was 1rwkw shy then busted it by 28rwkw i think

Only a 100hp shot of nos but thats what i said to him SUB ZERO love happy gas

I guess it hit the power, but then again it sounds like it blew up.. not sure how much that counts :-s

[strutto]

The 1070 hp figure was done during tuning by Sub Zero and is real but the Autosalon dyno only went up to 200kph  :chairshot

Plus the fact that the gearbox blew up didnt leave much room for improvement.

That's all the dyno graph posted goes to... I fail to see your point... :confused:

630Kw != 1070HP

P.S. Nothing wrong with nitrous IMHO...

Nothing wrong with it... Within reason.

IMHO I'd rather see more money put into the motors, and less $1500 nitrous kits going on for easy power.

Valid point Jishwa... You wake up on the right side of the bed or something?

True that :jump:

It's the rain I tell ya

I should have been more clear sorry

The hp read of 1070 was made at Sub Zero on their dyno.

Not at the Autosaslon dyno.

If he had of scored 1070 on Saturday they would have smashed the record.

The dyno at autosalon only read up until 200kph.

thats why the cars with power glides got really bad hp scores.

Nothing wrong with nos just pointing out the fact that Sub Zero will Put nos on anything.

At that sort of power what could possibly be put on the car for 1500 more dollars?

Not easy power just more

[Fro-Daddy]

does anyone know who the 2 girls were in a white R32 or R33 (think R33, cant memba)? they were up the back near the exhaust thing...

No one said with a $1500 budget there is anything else that would add “more power”. The point was, people are using the nitrous kits as easy power.

Each to their own I spose.

nos is good but i think for dyno roller comps they should just use the engine power produced and have a totally different section for the nos cars. then it would be easier to judge the cars on there actually horse power not just bolt on a nos bottle for extra kw/hp

[Slide]

You need naaaws to blow the valves on the intake der

[jas/slo32]

ill see you next time im up slide should be in a couple of weeks but next on the plans is jamboree

[85URK]

I disagree as adding nitrous is EXACTLY the same as bolting on a bigger turbo.

When someone bolts on a bigger turbo, do you stand there and say "yeah but lets see what the engine produces with a turbo half it's size or let's take the turbo off completely and just see what the engine does without any boost". I would think not. Using nitrous is effectively only adding more oxygen to the process and there is a fine art to setting it up correctly. If someone wants to run nitrous, fine....they will pay the price for cheap horsepower if they have not set both it and the engine up properly. It takes skill and a very tough engine to run it safely at high levels as nitrous has nearly 2.5 times the air content of normal air which increases the risk of detonation and engine failure. Just think of it as adding another turbo for 10 seconds.

couldnt have said it better myself

[85URK]

good point. but u cant run nos on the street but u can run a bigger turbo. i wasnt uping any1, i just reckon they should have 2 different areas in the roller comps. maybe im wrong but it would give a more true indication of what people are goin to see in a car driving on the street or at the strip. just my 2c.

[Nismo_Boy]

As I said each to there own...

You could post this conversation up on a V8 forum and every one of us would be flamed down for using turbo’s and not “cubes” to make the power. Comes down to personal opinion.
