just turn the boost up. Or if need be alittle nitrous always helps things get moving.

it will be once it is spining. on my 408 the pt88 was pretty laggy but holly hell did that thing pull once it got going it really started feeling like a jet taking off once the pt88 went in. 100+mph and it still put you back hard

i was spraying anywhere from a 100shot to a 175shot to get things moving depending on the outside temp. a looser stall would have helped.

Parish8- were you spraying just the 60foot or what? and what were your 60ft times wit your 88mm, how much boost were you launching of the line...
Im just trying to get at least a 10.5 et out of this set-up i think it will run it once its done. and thanks guys for all the comments ill let you all know how it works out for me.

best 60' was something like a 1.55, awd with 4 nittos. there was more power to be had but it would not hold it with that tire/suspension set up.

i didn't even try to launch with boost. you could do it but it just too much time and would be very dificult to make work if you were trying to catch a light or even line up a street race. i just did a mild brake stall up to 2200rpm or so and then when it was time to go i mashed it and let the nitrous get me moving. nitrous shut off when the boost hit 8psi and was only on for about .3 sec.

to me spraying it off the line seemed like it was stressing the truck a lot less. trying to do a 5psi brake stand was harsh. it took a lot of time and the whole truck was twisting. tranny had to be geting crazy hot. if you can launch as soon as you hit 5psi you might be ok but if you have to try and time hiting 5psi with when the light turns green good luck.

Alot of people will take the nitrous kit and have it spray once the turbo reaches a preset amount of boost like Parish was talking about. You can either faze the N2O out over time or just have it cut at X amount of boost. If it were me I would have it come on once WOT and faze out until a preset boost level.

What component are they using to "faze out" the nitrous under boost? Is there some sort of other progressive controller that can measure boost and regulate the amount of nitrous sprayed? Please post it up, that's interesting to me.
