What size shot you running?? We do it. Bottle pressure plays a HUGE part in tuning, are you running a bottle warmer?

Cannot recommend Hallam Performance enough in this area. After 100 plus dyno pulls over around 6 years, with varying combos on nitrous, safety is always at the forefront of their mind. Great blokes too... 97023030

Ali at NX Generation in Clayton would be my choice. 7.68 @ 180mph, he must be doing something right.

My point was, anyone that can build a car and tune it to run a 7.68 @ 180mph pass is doing something right. If they can build a car that quick without any failures I think it would be fair to say you could trust them to tune just about anything as they clearly know what they are doing. The fact that they also distribute nitrous products and tune nitrous combinations is an advantage but irrespective of that fact, to be able to turn a number that hard aspirated or forced, imagine what would be acheivable with a gasser motor in their hands. My implication wasn't that ALIPWR uses the bottle, just the fact that NX Generation know a thing or 2 about gas and have a proven car to back themselves up. I guess my response was very abrubt and not in-depth when posting. How did it come across to you as Brett, just out of curiousity?

Wasn't having a dig at you at all mate. It came across as 'this is his time, obviously knows a thing or two about nitrous', suggesting he is using it to run the time. It's irrelevant and not important anyway. Anyone running those times irrespective of engine type or fuel used generally is pretty cluey about how to build and tune engines.
