well let me try to redeem myself a little bit infront of u guys. First off the nitrous was only on for a few seconds in second gear and even then it was only in spurts. so thats why the time wasnt very much better. question do u guys know of any kind of a respectable dyno tune shop in the valencia, santa clarita area. I could really use some helpo as u can tello. ho ho ........ anyways. u guys have definately made it obvious that i have a problem. im hoping to race tomarow night at LACR w/out nitrous so i can tell u more hopefully some other time. thanx for the suggestions. WOW i feel like an IDIOT.
