What kind of car do you have? Cuz if its a CL-S... 20mph is ~ 200whp. THAT much NOS in a single-shot is insane. In any case NOS really gives torque, not hp - I don't think its possible to run >115mph on a CL-S on NOS alone!

If it was a CL-S, then my hats off to you...

Just for comparison, there was a guy with a 6spd CL-S running a 100-shot and the best he ran was a 109mph trap. You need to be putting down > 400whp to trap 116; I know that for a fact

Geez, now I need to go to the track!

Never mind... you have a 540i 6spd You probably put a 150 shot... a #52 jet probably, correct? Good runs!

But everything I just said is irrelevant to what we are discussing.

My point is that you should correctly label your times. Almost everybody else on this board does and I would expect that you would do the same.

LOL



power = fuel + air. An engine can only naturally pull so much in...

Intake header and exhaust all do the same thing as forced induction, ALLOW MORE AIRFLOW!

your killing me.

Well in that case our 2 stage intake is cheating too, better let everyone know when you race them. Because it produces a supercharging effect! Better just disable it...
