Todays results....

0-100 in 9.4
0-110 in 11.1
1/4 mile in 13.0 at 99.1 after backing off from the above 110mph.

Compare that to my 12.9 run at York where my terminal was 110.9mph and it means I'm reaching my previous terminal speed around 1.7 seconds faster on NOS :evilgrin:

May need rods, pistons and uprated clutchpacks eventually but these are the next targets...

i)   A sub 9 second 0-100mph
ii)  A 4.5 second to 60mph
iii) An official 12.5 second 1/4 mile (or less!) whilst still on the K04
iv) A terminal of 118mph or over.

Ohhhhhhhh  yesssssssss!!

and it is still all within the same parameters as before, except I've brought in the power over a slightly longer build rate, which works VERY well. Not taken any pics today as I was concentrating too much on the settings, but I think the build rate difference has made almost as much difference as the extra 25 horsies.

I love this mod :love:

0-100 now nearer target at 9.2 off a 5.2 to 60mph :jumpmove: and i hit the limiter in 3rd which slowed the one run I managed down :ashamed:

I don't know exactly how much is left, but I can still hear the NOS swilling about, so there's still some liquid in the tanks. I reckon I've done in the region of 30-40 runs and test runs, so I'd guess that there's another 20ish left in there. If I wasn't testing the system and set-up I reckon the bottles would last me 4 months as I don't use them on the road. So that would mean 3 refills a year = £240, which in my book is well worth it. :jumping:

Already spoken to Steve at Statllers about these a few times and Trevor at WON. Trevor reckons the 100bhp shot is the limit on OEM internals, so if I want to use 150bhp nozzles rods will be dropped in first :happy2:

The NOS is amazing, I can feel the accelleration of the car under the turbo and just when I think that's fast, the nitrous kicks in and I can literally hear myself laughing out loud. I've been in a few Porsche turbo's and believe me when I say the NOS makes it faster. 40mph upwards is basically scaring me and I HAVE to hold on to the wheel as it pushes you backwards so hard it is difficult to describe in words. :driver:
