That statement confuses me. Unless, do you mean your basically turning off the jets when the turbo is spooled?

Yes, we have full control of when the nitrous system is activated and deactivated. The system is turned off at a set boost level which is lower than 42 lbs. For this reason, the nitrous does not contribute to the PEAK of the power curve. Everything below is a product of nitrous.

If you are still confused check out the chart on the first post, where you can see the numbers with and without nitrous. They peak out at the same point and had the pull with the nitrous spool up continued it would have laid directly over the curve without nitrous in the top end.

No I gotcha, at first I thought you had the nitrous on the whole time and I said to myself, how did it not add any power!

From the looks of the graph, adding the nitrous for spool is GREAT.

Too bad Chris' black car didnt have it when he raced that twin turbo Mustang. Lag killed him. He was coming up from behind like a freight train though

I cant believe people would even say 42r and pump gas in the same sentence.

have you guys ever done a 70mm 42R on an Evo? I would think it would be just a little more than a T4/67 and more pump gas friendly. If you have, do you have any dynos? thanks
