14.2, but that was my first run, just practicing on cold tires, then i did a burnout and the axle snapped on the second run. I haven't been back since because I'm in the process of building a new shortblock. Also my car is a coupe, it weights 2680lbs. I expect I could have ran 13.9 or better.

Re: d16z6 (RyanCivic2000)
definitely nitrous is the best bang for your buck. i have a d15b7 in a hatch and i ran a 15.3 with the stuff in the sig. but i need to get some batter tires bc i have really really cheap ones and they don't grip for ****. also that time was in palmdale ca with is way above see level, it should run like a 14.8 in Pomona.

With a 55 shot all you really need is the colder plugs. Use stock ignition timing. You could get a 255lph hp fuel pump if it makes you feel any better, but you don't really need it until the 75 shot. Another good thing to have but not necessary for a 55 shot is an fpr.

fpr: fuel pressure regulator
i have stock plugs. i use 91 octane. i retard one degree ignition. i do a valve adjustment after every 3 bottles i run. i have not encountered any problems yet. but when it is really hot i run a 60 shot but i wont hit a great time on a hot day. also a bottle heater is a must without that you have no control over the nitrous pressure. also i have nitrous and fuel pressue guages to make sure that i am running within the safe specs. and the bottle runs best at 950 psi, any higher and it is a bigger shot, any lower and its smaller.

I got mine from AEM which was like $150, but I think B&M makes a cheaper one that is a little less adjustable, but good enough. It allows you to adjust your fuel pressure. You will need a fuel pressure guage as well.

The VAFC doesn't control timing, and I don't know of any other piggybacks that do. I sold my VAFC to go with a Hondata. It's cheaper and more tunable.
