Hello all. I've got a 2004 RCSB that pretty much has a tr220 cam 3600 yank, LTs, usual bolt ons and a good tune. I went 12.80 in it last year on a shot drag radial. This year I was planning on running a TBSS intake with with a 90mm NO plate kit and spraying it 100-150. I currently have the entire kit , intake , NO window switch and lingenfelter LNC2000. I will be buying a wideband and new plugs as well.

My tuner seems to get harder and harder to get a hold of so I'm looking into branching out and doing my own tuning as well. I've only begun to look into HP tuners and still am very green to all of it. Question is... if I just decide to run the kit as is.... and pull the necessary timing per 50 shot(2-3*) will I be OK to run if I keep an eye on my AFR's? Only other worry I have is swapping to the bigger intake as well during all of this.

Any help is appreciated.

def watch your afr and check your plugs often. I run ngk tr6s with 150 plate shot on my lq4 with a 224/224 cam. You can use the lnc to pull timing, as i purchased one with my n2o kit, but i opted to modify my entire engine coolant temp v. ignition table, through hp tuners. I pull 4 degrees for a 150 shot, but every car is different and many will suggest pulling more timing. I now just use a NOS Mini 2-Stage Progressive Nitrous Controller 15974NOS. I flip the switch on, after staging, and hammer the gas. I now use my lnc as a launch controller for my firebird, so wasnt a complete loss.

Awesome man. Figured as much. I'd consider myself a very hands on , mechanical person so it's time I start venturing into this stuff. It's just that... I read some of these forums on hptuners and it's a bit overwhelming.

I'm sure it still need some small tweaks to the tune stepping up to for larger intake and TB as well. This might just be the excuse to go ahead and buy it and start messing around with it.

Make sure the na tune is spot on, run proper plugs, get a wideband and log the nitrous runs to look for any knock.
I run a nos window switch, Inc 2000 and I am going to ditch the window switch for a mini progressive controller.
make sure you run some good gas aswell.
I have a dedicated fuel system for my nitrous with c16 in the tank for peace of mind

are you running 93 octane and then dedicated fuel system? Or E85 then Dedicated fuel system?

2004silvy

93 only and wasn't planning on a dedicated fuel system. Didn't really think it was necessary honestly? Do you think it is with such a small shot? I plan on putting a new fuel pump in.

old thread but did you run it on the bottle this year? I went 12.32@110 on a 100 shot and just upped to a 150 but haven't ran the new set up yet

I haven't. I got sidetracked with a couple other projects. Furthest I got was putting together an escalade console to house the bottle, switches and controller. I'll prob get it installed shortly. Let me know if you run it. I'd like to know what mine will do. What all mods do you have done? Also did you do anything other than just pulling timing?
