We run a 250hp direct port on our Supra now. We'll see what we put on the Z

p.s. I remember a thread years ago that was titled "Why Drag a Z" and I guess that mentality is still prevalent today....of course thats not my mentality.
I've always wondered why people stick with the nissan 6 speed transmission who are so into drag racing. The people that have changed their transmission have gotten great results for drag racing. Why do people want the 3.794 1st gear ratio and gears that are so close together in conjunction with a large turbo(s) and then shift so many times?

PR1=turbo only
PR2=WGSP + Nitrous
PR3=21-22psi + Nitrous
I plan on putting nitrous on my Greddy TT kit. It should make 800-850rwhp.
A properly built and tuned engine with your setup would handle 18-19 psi and a single nozzle fine.

With a single nozzle with the boost controller off it would make about the same power. With 2-3psi less boost it would 740rwhp with the nitrous.

Hey Coach! How much power are u putting down on PF's dyno with just boost alone?

those IC spray kits are a big waste of nitrous. It is certainly not a very efficient way to cool down the intake charge.

when adding nitrous/boost are the injectors an issue as far as size??
Coach - what were/are majors concerns of adding nitrous to boost on a stock block? I know the limitations obviously come on with dealing with a stock block, but whatsthe best way of doing it? (wanna get my facts straight before i start callin u know who to hook it up!!)..lol

wet kits don't use the injectors to funnel fuel to the motor....its controlled by your fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator, and the fuel solenoid on the nitrous system....injectors are out of the picture. Just make sure you have a sufficient fuel pump or TWO.

why not spray a strong NA motor with multiple stages of no2.
That usually takes care of the running out of turbo problem.
That is how it was in the old days.You build a monster bottom end and spray 100 (hole shot)+ 175 (60')+ and 250 top end.
If gm v-8 will hold up y not vq/hr ?
Reciprocating weight is less in our motors (rods,pistons,ect.) so rpm shouldn't be a problem.
Isn't 20+ psi about the same pressure inside the motor as a big spray?
