Default 200 shot on the 408

Well, I have been messing around with the nitrous systems for over a year so I figured I would post up what she does. I have been chasing issues with my system for what seems like forever and finally nailed it. I was having some varying fuel pressures coming off of the dedicated system (+/- 10psi) and a clogged nitrous filter. The FPR on the dedicated system had a poorly seated low pressure spring and my in-line nitrous filter was so clogged, it restricted flow enough to make the hit feel like nothing. I was using a FPSS which would trigger everytime the pressure swing would occur.

So a 200 hit using C-16 fuel in the dedicated was the ticket. I sprayed at roughly 5300RPM in 1st gear and through the shifts, hence the lower 60' (I would eat the wall dumping it off the line - if the drivetrain holds). It all held together for a nice run however a few small spikes of KR and 2 small backfires / misfires didn't add to the time. I was running NGK B8EFS plugs with roughly 15* of advance. Spraying 150, the BR7EF and 19* ran solid so I took an educated guess at the 200 shot. Didn't get time to read the plugs.

So:

10.862 @ 128.22 with a 1.763 60'

Pretty happy that everything held...even the FLT 65E! I am guessing the truck weighed in somewhere in the 5500lb range, AWD on drag radials.

Didn't get any video however the slip is attached:

if you spray earlier in first does it spin the fronts or do they hook and pull you towards the wall?

I want a 200 shot of nitrous.....


wait, prolly not a good idea, I'll think it's best to let that 408 eat that pill not my 4.8.

Great runs man, but get a camera on location next time!!
