By the way what RPM are you launching at and are you only spraying out of the hole and then not spraying once the turbos start boosting.
I'm launching around 2500 rpm
and I had a Progressive Nitrous Control System
So I shot at starting to end.......

I have power braked also .. and it wont let me rev above 2000 rpm... whats up with that? .. i hear about the fuse ..and apparently when brakes are appplied .. it restricts to about 60% acceleration. I have a G35 and remember reading this on a thread there... I do feel like when tryin to launch its slower!! ... hmmmm

Okay well ... I went to the track. My first time ever .. I pulled off a 14.5 as my best time.. which is okay? .. but i was hoping for better! I launched at about 2k rpm. and it was all in MM mode. My car is completely stock... and oh yeah its a G35 not a Z. Any suggestions on how i can improve?

If you have enough $$$$ its time to boost or spray, thats a sure way of improving

All auto's are standard motor, even the 06'. In other words no Revup + auto combos...
