Default spray or no?

ok, opening day at the track is the 28th. here are mods.

00 Lude SH (most important of all i think)
AEM Fuel Rail
AEM Fuel Pressure regulator (set to 40psi from AEM)
AEM CAI
Thermal Catback
Prospeed header (awaiting arrival)
Kteller test pipe
mallory ignition
VAFC (mildly tuned... leaned out a tad)
clutchmasters 12 LB flywheel
ACT XTSS
2 step colder plugs; i hope... anthony gave me the part #... so if they are wrong its all his fault
gauges
Nitrous Express Direct port kit jetted to a 100 shot (smallest jets i have )

ok, here is the thing. i had dyno time set for the 24th. but due to $$ taking priority elsewhere i will not be able to dyno before the track.

just cant decide as of yet what to do. i am leaning towards just going N/A since its the first time to the track anyhow. but i really wanna see what i can pull on the bottle.... i know, im being greedy i guess.....

Spraying a 100shot on a stock bottom end is nutz. I'd be nervous about 50.

ill dyno it reguardless... just next month now most likely.

and ill have the cam gears on by then as well if i dont get them on in time for the track. not that they would make a differance being at 0-0 but the new t-belt would be nice to have on there.

i would go n/a since it's your first run of the season.
think of it as baseline runs,
then you can compare them and see how much the
direct port system benefit's you.

are you gonna be retarding the ignition at all?

I just found out I've been leaning out the motor with a 55 shot, so i think a fuel pump would be a good idea with a 100 shot. Also keep in mind that Nitrous Express rates their shots to the wheels, so that 100 shot is more like 125 shot.

I think you've already decided. You just want someone else to say it so that the blame won't be on you if you blow it up.

Go NA, you would be foolish to run 100 shot on you r motor. First you will not go that uch faster, without slicks you wont get traction. A 100 shot of NX will make close to 125 whp, that is too much for stock internals! In addition to that your fuel pump will have a hrd time providing for 300whp, (which is what you will be making). I suggest you spend the 5 dollars on some new jets and run a 75 shot or have some custom 65 shot jets made up. Most guys I have talked to gained 90-95 whp from a 75 shot. That is as far as I would push my stock motor.
