After a smooth install I'm proud to say that I'm a Newbie to the 500whp club

The car made 500Whp and 525wtq... With just a 125 shot


Runs were done in 5th gear.

I'm very happy with the install. Everything seems like it was meant to be.
Ill try and get a pic of the engine bay tomorrow but for now here is how the bottle is mounted in the trunk



And last but not least the video...

I was thinking about that but our budy Sean gave me a heads up about the heat down there. Its not too noticeable now when my tennis bag is back there though

Very nice man and glad to see you didn't go over the top with too much N20. Now go get some sticky tires and give us a 11 second run! If you and Oztiks can't get into the 11's we should know then that there is something going on in the tranny under load that is preventing this car from putting the power to the ground as it does on the dyno.

BTW... Nice HD vid!

Nice numbers I would rather see how it does againt that 400+whp M5 you raced awhile back. That would better test of power increase to me.

I really wanted to just hit 500whp for right now. Im leaving for Texas on Monday for Supra Nationals and i feel that at 500whp the car will be fine for the trip.

Im going to be changing the setup a little bit when i get back though. I want to utilize a progressive controller so the car isnt under strain during certain parts of the pass. That way i wont have to worry as much. Quartermile racing isnt my favorite type of racing, but im confident that im with the right guys that can help me set some records

As it stands right now the car should stay with the 125 until headers come out. When i drop the motor i can have the manifold ported. Once that is done ill put some race gas in and Ill up to a 150-175
