safcII w/ nitrous??

Is it worth it to get one dyno tunned for nitrous to squeeze out a few more ponnies?

How much hp do think could be gained from a nitrous map? I know you could see around 10hp n/a so I wonder what could be had on the juice???

Will do, but was just wondering if anybody else has done it and what results they had?

get a wideband or dyno time and a extra bottle. spray and tune then spray and tune again and again.

there are gains to be made but since no 2 setups or driving styles are excatly the same you will have to find out what best for your car some-1 else's setup may get you in the ballpark but the final tune is up to you

A wideband is almost if not should be necessary.

So, you're just going blindly into it?

No , I am not getting a safcII until I get my best possible times on the spray first.

How are you setting things up and controlling & monitoring A/F?

How large of a shot?

Right now I am just running a zex 55 wet shot(for now at least), So I really don't think I have to monitor things until I get into bigger shots. And I am only spraying at the track, which I go to probably once or twice a month.

oh and another thing after a few test runs I checked my plugs and they look great, so I would say everything is running perfect.

Oh - maybe someday I should do that. Just a stock ECU here - no wideband, either.......

Actually, I really should, what with the present 150-shot dual-stage NX, and one more stage in the works...... after long-tube headers, a dyno tuning session or two is planned.

when i did wideband i never got a chance to spray and try and tune it. but my goal was to tune it n/a to about 13.1ish or high 12's.

If you have the nitrous setup jetted properly, it SHOULD remain the same a/f ratio when you spray, thats the whole reason for picking the proper jets. To be honest, I dont suggest trying to squeeze a few hp from tuning a/f unless its really off. trying to lean it out a lil bit to get like few hp is probably a bit risky. If you wanna get more power out of your nitrous, get headers, and/or a cutout.
