Weel i raced today for the first time in the truck and first time with nitrous in. ANd well lets say i need new tires for one(which i knew i wouldnt bite), And Its slower than i thought. NO N20 i ran a 16.3 and with just a 50 shot fastest i could get was 15.32 with a speed of 83.30. Need to order new jets! and need other go fast stuff!

Isn't it a very high altitude where you're at?

new tires will help maybe some caltracks and spend some time learning how to launch id step it to a 75 shot and youll be happy and still safe

Your e.t. will drop with traction, so start with tires.
Dropping a full second on a 50 shot is a lot more than I would have expected though.

Thats what i thought! but i think im finding these are very picky trucks. I can race a 16 second car on the street and destroy it, Get to the strip and cant break a 15. 99. IS there ant way to up the low end on these things!

Traction is the first step, then everything you do after that will become more consistent.

HAha ya no joke! im actually going to texas tomorrow and hope to hit the track up there. But man you should do the nitrous . It was very simple to set up on mine, the hardest part was wiring. I just have the NX kit thats the fuel injection no the tb plate

I put mine about 4 or 5 inches away from the main part of the throttle body
