You should be able to break a low 12 I drive an is350 on a 100 shot and have broken a 12.6 at the 1/4 mile track and yesterday at the 1/8th mile track my car made the best pass it has ever made I hit a 7.91 with a 1.7 60' but from every conversion chart ive seen that is equil to a 12.40

FYI - To all the people asking questions regarding the shot, and additional details - those will be coming shortly (After sunday). The car will be at the 2K9 Lexus North Miami show. Nothing to hide, I promise - just keeping my commitments to other people.

*DOH*!!!! Did you see that graph? It's like you're cruising along and BOOM, double the torque at a press of a button!!! I'd be afraid of twisting the axles and shearing the gears off the tranny! Looks like the IS-F likes a little bit of NOS. That's like a 200hp at the crank increase.

Exhaust MIGHT be next. Going to be going back soon to get the nitrous system tuned a bit. I think we're confident we can push 500 to the wheels safely.
Wayy ahead of you. Did that the day after I got it back!
Did about 8 runs on the bottles. Unfortunately i'm having some serious traction issues due to my camber (because i'm running about a 2" drop).. i'm uploading the video of the runs to youtube now. It won't be ready 'til tomorrow.*DOH*!!!! Did you see that graph? It's like you're cruising along and BOOM, double the torque at a press of a button!!!

That's the joy of the progressive controller; rather than giving the whole drivetrain a kick in the pants at once; it slowly (relatively speaking) ramps up the nitrous via pulsing the solenoids.

Video finished sooner than expected. It's only in standard quality right now; it's still processing the HD version

Even though your dyno graph looks amazing, I wouldn't be too happy with your times. Running a 12.4-12.5 @ 118 with 175 shot is not good at all, caymandive's runs were better and he was stock! Either you need to work on your drag racing skills or your cars needs more tuning. Keep us posted.

He was not "stock".. running drag radials and removing your spare tire is not quite what i'd call stock; he also ran at one of the (known) notoriously fastest tracks in the country. Oh yeah, his run was also done at < 50F, as far as I recall.. if you read my information posted clearly at the beginning of the video, I was running at 83F at nearly 10:30PM. Regarding my "drag racing skills" there's not a whole lot to it in an automatic. My runs were reasonably consistent, but maybe i'm consistently bad...
The car will be going in for a slight retune, but i'm in more need of a camber kit than anything.
Maybe I need to call MHP?
