In a 1/4 mile? Unless you've torn a whole bunch of stuff out, I'd figure right around 16 flat

Well whatever it does it will do it better if you put the stock fuel pump back in.

The 255 might outflow the stock FPR and cause higher rail pressures, so it'd run a hair rich, but nothing too bad.

Not "might" and not "a hair". Seems crazy to lose power through overly rich mixtures most of the time just for the occasional hit of nitrous.

I'm just regurgitating what I've seen, I've yet to see a 255 change the AF/R's any more than .2:1 on a stock setup, that's not exactly what I call overly rich. But then again, a lot of cars are different so who knows, but that's what I've seen after watching the wideband after swapping pumps.

Maybe on a Turbo, but the NA has a lower performing pump and FPR, so the difference will be greater.

That was on my NA. '87 Sport to be exact, was in the process of throwing the turbo on it and had started by putting in things that still left the vehicle drivable, and that was one the things I noted simply because a lot of people ask about it. But you are right, they do make it run richer, perhaps on some cars it's worse than others (specifically cars with dirty injectors/etc) My rail pressure changed roughly ~2psi between the two.

Besides the fake horsepower (NOS) and lambo doors, car looks pretty clean. In perfect conditions and good driving, I say you can do mid 15-16 sec. in 1/4 mile.

Saying nitrous provides 'fake' horsepower, IS retarded.

It just looks like power, but it really isn't....
