JSTAL Posted September 20, 2008 Report Posted September 20, 2008 ok fellas i still am working the bugs out but im happy with my progress. I need to get meth but im thinking nitrous instead. im running a 2.85 pully on a camed LQ4. at the track tonight the truck ran well but i was seeing 136* iat and at the traps 160* iats. So what about a wet 50 shot not only will it cool the iats but it will add some power. will the motor hold up im only seeing 7.5 psi. thanks for the info jason Quote
Krambo Posted September 20, 2008 Report Posted September 20, 2008 There are a few guys spraying on top of the Radix with good results. Personnally, I would do a dry shot rather than wet through the rotors of the radix. While many people are spraying "stuff" through the Radix, I know BlownChevy will discourage this practice. With correct AFR and no knock, the motor will hold. Quote
caddy03pimpin Posted September 26, 2008 Report Posted September 26, 2008 im on the same boat i have 2.80 pulley and have all the nos hooked up but i didn't know if the stock motor would hold to the 50 shot . lol krambo just gave me some words of encouragement thanks . hey man good luck with your build lets see how we do if you do it soon let me know what your resolutes were There are a few guys spraying on top of the Radix with good results.

04CHASE Posted September 26, 2008 Report Posted September 26, 2008 like kevin said as long as your spark and fuel are in check the motor will hold. the 50 shot will add some power for sure. id say in 60-70 rwtq could be gained. also known as diminishing returns. for exampl i ran 11.80 with no juice, then i used a 125 shot and gained a while .4 . id day it would pick you up 2 tenths if you are running low 12's now . 11's should be attainable . try it out next week at irwindale, we will have hpt there so we can pull some timing, although you could just get down to near E and throw in 5 gallons of some 110 and call it good.

kelleyperformance Posted September 26, 2008 Report Posted September 26, 2008 i just installed the nozzle today... so we shall see. using a .036 jet, so it should be arround a 50 shot, prob more like a 60. the truck has had a throttle plate on it for 2 years just never put the bottle in. guess i never wanted to deal with it.

I know it would have lasted at least one run.....Ahhh, what could have been. 11.5?, 11.2? less? Who knows but it sure would have been fun before it (or the tranny) let go. Quote
mean05 Posted September 26, 2008 Report Posted September 26, 2008 do it jason, you should still be within the limits that the block will hold, right now i would think you in the 450-475rwhp area, so i say spray it Quote

Just added a wet 325 shot to the mix and it seems to love it! I should be damn close to 550 @ wheels now with a little 5.3 Quote
