Default Nitrous Update!

I installed the new micro switch today because I was having a problem with it vibrating and not engaging. I messed around and got it working great. In my 300 ft drag strip in a hay pasture I had my friend count how many seconds it took for me to run. KEEP IN MIND THIS IS A VERY ROUGH ESTIMATE OF MY TIME, NOT VERY ACCURATE, BUT JUST SHOWS GAINS. With the nitrous of I ran right around an 8 second run, with the nitrous on I ran a best of around 5-6 seconds. Even though it is not accurate at all, this still shows an amazing gain. This was with bottle pressure not even in optimum pressure range, a little under. My next mods will be sixsixt's adapter kit, bottle heater, and gearing. This was with a 20 shot. Let me know what you guys think. Again, I am not trying to be dumb and act like my Raptor is the fastest, cause the timing method was not very good, but just tryin to see the gains and tell you guys. Later,

Street

Sounds good. How much did the whole kit set you back?? Was it new or used?? and did samcoeds get you a deal?

I was pretty impressed with the gains. I think it will do even better once I get the bottle heater to regulate the pressure. Never ending money pit, AND I LOVE IT!!!
