Why such a low rwhp tinywilly? Also, why not go direct port since you already have a FAST manifold?

I have no clue why it is so low, it was quite the shocker when I got it back from the dyno. To be honest I have never used the nitrous, and after that weak dyno, I am probably removing it and going FI

Well, if you wanted to get a good nitrous setup like a Nitrous Express direct port kit you could spray a 150 shot all day long, but honestly I would be concerned with the engine build/tune itself. My LS1 which shouldn't make nearly the same power as you did 447rwhp and I am running a similar setup to you with a FAST 92 instead of a 102 like you.

Anyway here's my pile. Pretty plain and simple Most of the norotors guys have seen it already.

Buttonwillow Feb 2012 driver's clinic, had a great time. Kinda gay how the camera angle makes the car look like it's leaning more than it actually is, whatever.


This was after a skidpad event at El Toro airfield in So. CA. That's why the car is so filthy hehe.
This makes me miss my 94 SSM

That power is definitely down. The TQ is better because of the 383 but I have the same HP on a stock bottom end 346. Something HAS to be up. A bad cam grind or improperly degreed cam. Something has to be up. I'd expect at least another 40-60hp.

What did you rev it to on the dyno?

Dyno's are just a measurement tool, each one is different. Was this on a mustang dyno? What are you using for tuning? The manifold and TB should add a bit up top since you added cubic inches. If you have the dyno please post, very interested.

Those are most likely the shine feed replicas.

Yep! I have the shine cf sideskirts and the street cf diffusor. I'm going to do a 99+ front lip in cf on my current front bumper and be done with it.
