70-130mph motor, 50-150mph nitrous pulls video

Not really a kill, but I thought this would fit best in here, anyway. We were bored tonight, so we made a couple of pulls. The first one is on motor and on the nitrous tune. The second was on the bottle, but the solenoid was breaking up quite a bit. I was gonna run it to 190+, but with the solenoid freaking out I didn't want to try to find enough road to do it on motor. Next time.

That's one fast FD V8 with spray! You don't see much that will beat that. I bet you've smoked quite a few substantial competitors.

I watched the 60 - 130 mph of your car a few times and you're in the 6 to 7 second range for that pull. That's very fast!

Here's a virtual race for you. It's the Heffener 800+ engine HP twin turbo Gallardo Lamborghini. I think you would be about dead nuts even from 60 to 130. His 60 mph start mark is around 1:00 or 1:01 into the video.

My SPF Shelby Cobra is about a half second slower than your car from 60 to 130 mph. I'm going to need a wet system now. LOL What type of set up do you use? I think I'd like only about 100 HP to keep it safe for the engine.

That was actually only a 150 hit and the solenoid was junk. Maybe I'll go out and make it again on the 250 shot and good noid today.

I run zex efi race noids in a wet kit config.

Big cam... 243/249 613/619 109LSA. Car traps 125mph on motor. And yes, JTR headers.

What set up would you recommend to add about 75 to 100 HP? A friend of mine just put together a Porsche GT2 with EVO GT700 package and a couple other add ons. I'd like to be able to beat him the next time we head out to the drag strip. I would trap in the 130 range on motor as high 10 easy launch, but think I'll need to run slightly faster.

I don't have much experience with wet systems and value your opinion as it seems you have had your car running for a while now.

Are these deals any good or do they mess up the flow of a carburetor? I like the stealthy look which I could incorporate into my existing air intake. I have a V8 with carb.

I don't know anything about that set up... I'd never even seen one until you just posted the picture. But, pretty much any standard wet plate kit will get the job done for you, especially if you want to stay on a small shot. NOS has a great selection for carb'd cars. Keep in mind, though, that you'll probably want to go up in shot eventually and it will be cheaper in the long run to start with a kit with the biggest solenoid offered.
