Now that my car isn't going to be an autocross car, I thought I might hasten it's end by running a bottle. I shocked people pulling 15.7s all night, I can't imagine what they'd think if I cracked 100mph. So what's it take to do that? If I give it a wet 100 shot from an NX kit without a tune will I be in the low 14s at 100 mph+? Remeber drag weight will be less than 2900 lbs with driver - I'm at 2820 now, and I'll be pulling more now that SCCA rules don't stop me.

I think it's quite possible.

dont run a wet shot IIRC.. our intake manifold design makes it easy for the juice to pool up in the manifold and hickup..

if you dont run a wet shot you need a ton of fuel upgrades. your choice. my 100 wet shot doesnt have a problem and hasnt hiccuped at all. my car will hit 95 in third gear with the button..... i havent been to the track yet though

How's that? I thought top speed in third was 82...

oh, I get it, your clutch must be slipping the whole time to reach 95mph on your speedo...

Wow, does your nitrous button raise your redline or change your final drive to get u to 95 in 3rd?

IIRC its about 82 or 84 mph @ redline in 3rd gear.

brand new spec stage 3 less than 1000 miles on it.

if you ever read my posts you would know. i have no rev limiter, i can hold the button to 7400. seems pretty feasable! also i dont have stock rims on my car, i have 17"s that makes a diff in speed. i think you lose this little battle. thanks try again. (speed was handheld GPS tested, my speedo is off, will read 96 in third)

LOL!!! TRicker amazes me with some of the absolute crap that he says on here!

TRicker- Not having a rev limiter is what gets you up to 95 in 3rd, not the N2O!!
