Default Figured out how to launch with 10 psi

Well I figured out how to make 10 psi with the stock stall! It takes a few seconds but man does it set you back. 1st I do the SyTy shuffle, then nail the throttle tell it makes like 3-4 psi, let out alittle but holding the 3 psi and then nailing it again. 2-3 times of that and I blow thru the brake at 10 psi and hit about 40 mph in about 1 sec.

If you can swing some cash to do a hydroboost conversion you can stop doing the sy-ty shuffle and they will hold 10 psi no prob. One of the best cheap mods I've done so far. I'm excited to see how it does once I upgrade my brakes too.

Last time I looked. I remember thinking Hydroboost was a fairly expensive change -- has that come down or I am mis-remembering?

I have about $250 into my setup. Not too bad IMO, but maybe my perception of what is expensive and what isn't is slightly skewed.

a cheaper way is just up the nitrous jet. LOL I foot brake 5+psi with stock parts. ONly time its hard to do, is when the tires and ground is cold. Weird I know.
