Thanks Thunder!
Does these numbers sound right guys??
here is what i found:
58PSI Fuel Pressure + 900PSI Nitrous + .030" Nitrous Jet + .015" Fuel Jet = 41hp
58PSI Fuel Pressure + 900PSI Nitrous + .035" Nitrous Jet + .018" Fuel Jet = 55hp
58PSI Fuel Pressure + 900PSI Nitrous + .040" Nitrous Jet + .021" Fuel Jet = 72hp
58PSI Fuel Pressure + 900PSI Nitrous + .045" Nitrous Jet + .023" Fuel Jet = 92hp
58PSI Fuel Pressure + 900PSI Nitrous + .050" Nitrous Jet + .026" Fuel Jet = 112hp
58PSI Fuel Pressure + 900PSI Nitrous + .055" Nitrous Jet + .028" Fuel Jet = 136hp
58PSI Fuel Pressure + 900PSI Nitrous + .060" Nitrous Jet + .031" Fuel Jet = 162hp

what is the deal with these pills? i hear more and more about them and i am utterly clueless when they are mentioned. all i know is some come with certain rpms and stuff. i throw a guess does it play with timing through a certain rpm only or engage nos through that range??

Pills, as they are commonly referred to, are the jets that are used to allow the desired amount of nitrous and fuel into your engine. The bigger the "pill" the bigger the amount of nitrous and/or fuel goes into your engine.

OH THOSE PILLS!! MSD pills set the revlimiter to a certan RPM. you throw in a 6000 pill and you can only rev to 6k or you can have it throw on your shift light at 6k
