spot the difference
testing a theory, found a super cheap nos cheater plate. it is used in dxp limited street class and powers cars well into the 7's. gonna see if it acts better or worse same jets same everything else over the built in spraybar.
initial free flow testing (I have to upload the vids but it's hard to see) is the built in spraybar has 4 larger holes on each side kind of aimed at the runners, but it seems like it hits the wall of each harder especially the end 2 (so 1 and 7) as opposed to the 12500 nos cheater plate, which seems more even overall in the plenum with 8 smaller holes on each side.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...08b68a620d.jpg

Based on zero experience with nitrous, I'm betting on the sixteen individual sprays making more power. It's sure making a fog!

welp kind of stuck with the nos 12500 plate now, the jet fitting on the n2o side of the intake custom spraybar was vac leaking slightly, couldnt figure out why, until i went to spin it out to reseal it and here it was snapped in the intake with 1 thread on the fitting holding it in.Quote:

planned for the track Friday night but suddenly my nitrous noid which is only 6 months old decided it no want to open fully. tore it all apart and checked it, couldn't find anything wrong, put it back together still didn't seem like it was flowing right, suspect the 90 degree fitting on the bottom was freezing due to poor machining. swapped it to a straight fitting and all was well again. decided to go sunday.
well that didn't go well. first pass off the trailer I had a small n2o ramp (0.5s at 40-100%) just trying to get the car to leave. I had readjusted the rear shocks and front shocks back to my baseline settings from last year, but the car did the same thing it's been doing, hooking getting out about 20ft and spinning, but this time it was more of tire shake, bad enough it snapped the alternator bracket ear off, broke the alternator fan thingy, and ripped the exciter plug out.
went 10.40 at 135 with a horrible 1.6 60ft and pedaling it in 1st gear.
packed it up and went home. I need to spend the coin for the nice hawks alt/ps relocation bracket but for now I remade the bracket the way it was with a cut up stocker. thinking about it today I'm going to redo that aluminum ear to 1/8" angle iron to prevent flex, and add a bracket to the rear of the alternator to block and also a turnbuckle/heim to the top of the oem bracket to prevent flex. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...7439304882.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...79c30582b9.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...dfe2b07cf0.jpg

Are the rear QA1's still in good shape? They are at least 25 years old, never rebuilt.
honestly not sure, they seem ok, but may not be able to handle it anymore. gotta work with what I got and hopefully upgrade over winterQuote:

sooo how does everyone feel about me cutting the cowl foe a super victor 2 intake??? have one en route
also last track outing was 1 pass and broken alternator bracket/alternator due to tire shake. remade the bracket and reinforced it now both at top so it can't twist and made an L bracket for back of alternator so hopefully that shitshow doesn't happen again.
