nico nopi show and JWT

I went to the nopi nico show in chandler AZ last weekend. I was disappointed because the hype was much greater than the show. I did meet some of the nico guys on sat but it rained all day sunday. There were some really nice tricked out cars and because of nico there were a ton of nissan and ifinitis from mild to wild.
I did go to JWT and they retuned the car. With the supercharger boosting at 11.2 lbs we dynoed 341.2 at the wheels using their dynapack RHAS-SP V1.0 unit. They couldn't do N20 because I couldn't lock the 3200 torque conv and this dyno must see steady torque at the hubs. When they tried, their dyno shut down due to tq slippage but clark said if the torque is hi enough to shut down the dyno it's putting out serious power because only a few automatics have done this . and he estimated at least 425 fwhp with N20.

I almost forgot to mention Jim took me for a ride in his 350Z convertible with his recently developed twin turbo unit. He is waiting for CARB certification but he put one on his ride. All I can say is I was buried in the seat when he took off. The car made tremendous torque and it dynos 361 RWHP. I highly recommend this turbo!!

The rebuilt auto is in and shifting beautifully
I got rid of the manumatic because it didn't work too well, but Rob at NRH tranny is building me a switch to lock up the TQ.

Sounds very cool. I would love to know what kind of numbers are going down with the nitrous.
