All in good fun dirtydog!

 

The neon was around 2500 lbs, the whole 1 second for a 100 shot means absolutely nothing without accounting for weight in the equation. We are talking about a vehicle that probably made 125WHP. 200 WHP should have no problems getting in the 13's in a 2500lb vehicle.

The mustang is the same one that I still own that has a 82 mm turbo on it now. It still has no cage. It is a gutted 90' Notch. It was trapping over 120 mph with a 125 shot. It did have the basic things as well, under drive pulleys, 75mm MAF, Full exhaust.

I hope you can agree with me that ANYONE only netting a few tenths from a 100 shot is either in a 8000lbs+ vehice or has no clue what they are doing!

 

BTW, I was rooting for the cardinals lastnight :-D

 

ive also heard that the hemis respond well to the nitrous...but i cant recall having seen any hemi QCs with the bottle before...

 

Weight is definately going to be my largest issue. I am sure there are some things I can do to knock off a few hundred lbs. I am not apposed to spraying more than a 125 shot I have just heard that the hemi's pistons can't take much.

 

Well, heck. I actually missed something. No need getting all upset.



Wow, you 2 acting like school kids. So what, I jump to conclusions on all 10 posts you've read or made since joining?
Title and postings are clearly against proper ethics code for this forums and your bragging about supposedly turning me in a while back? Yeah, that's cool.


I'm very familiar with mustangs as being an owner myself. 473rwhp 468rwtq 97cobra Vortech SQ 10psi. Runs low 11's all day.
I have ran with newer Z06's. The old set-up only ran .6sec faster with a 100shot due to street tires. Also, a 100shot isn't rwhp although NX is much higher than the competitors.

 

125 shot in a Hemi Ram with nothing else will not net 12s, but you will get attention.

Here is something to chew on..

04-06 SRT RC. 500HP 525TQ, more than you have at the crank with a Hemi + 125 shot. Better tranny.. Better gearing.. They can struggle to reach 12s. Many will not do it, but some of that is driver.

Continued use of the 125 shot will either tear up the tranny or differential (most likely differential) before long. And if you were entertaining running in 4 wheel drive to get bite off the line.... Please, film it

Oh and your buddy in the 405HP Z06, well he can not drive, so you have that going for you. http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do...rticleId=48955

 

It's getting deep in here...why don't those bragging about times on nitrous post some slips.

 

yes, you are going to need a lot more than a 125 shot.

for one thing, your truck is closer to 6000 than 5500.
next, the ram torque converter is one of the most inefficient out there, so the calculation that site is doing is probably an underestimate on the power you need.
you have a 2300 rpm stall speed...not exactly a drag race setup.
probably blow the trans pretty quick.
probably blow the diff on your first track day.
most likely need lower gears in the diffs.
might even tweak the driveshaft (it's happened).

blowing the motor would be the last of my concerns, the motor is pretty stout. can't say the same for the rest of the drivetrain.

 

Have you ever raced your truck while it's stock? What do you assume it runs?

I can tell you I got a whopping 15.9 @ 87 out of mine with a Superchips & CAI. I don't complain because it is a 6000lb truck (according to the track's digital scale) and it isn't my go-fast vehicle anyway.

Say I sprayed a 125 shot. It might net a 14.50 if I'm lucky. These trucks are fun but come on -- a Z06? Until you're packing a turbo it just isn't going to happen.
