Does anyone have a dyno plot of a VQ running nitrous? I'm curious as to how the power delivery is.

well, I know this was not what you were asking for, but you can have this info for what you like.
I had my car on a dyno last year with just a Stillen muffler on, and the airbox open. I put down 165hp and 180tq to the wheels.
I now have the full exhaust with the y-pipe to compliment the NOS. I have jetted the NOS and fuel to give me 40hp.
This is my "hypothesis".
My car weighs 3300 lbs. Due to my low mph at the track (96) I would say I am putting about 210-215 to the ground. I am also running 14.0 in the 1/4, so I should be getting around 230tq to the wheels. A lot of tq and not realy a lot of hp with the NOS. I use a g-tech at the track sometimes and it is very accurate, with in i tenth. It tells me my 0-60 is 5.1 when I run 14.0-14.1
This is just hypothetical thinking on my part, but I would bet it is accurate with in a couple of hp.
I will post a dyno plot when I can see paying $70 an hour for a dyno. Hope this helps.

That does give me an idea of how much power you gain. But I still want to see how its delivered. =) Like I was wondering if it changes the VQ's hp and torque curves any because of the artifial amount of oxygen and the cooling effects. Turbos and SCs are RPM dependent. But NOS comes on all at once. Yeah, but you're right. It is 70 dollars an hour. I wouldn't expect everyone to have a plot. =) Just wondering if anyone happned to have one.
