Why not see spray before you move on? You've got a great setup thus far...don't you want to see what it will do?

By the way, looking at your mod list, its amazing how much of what you've done is similar to my setup, with the best, fastest car color to match. I'm doing a 150 shot direct port on my built ls7 and it made 750 rwhp. Others with lots of nitrous experience are stating that with a progressive setup like you and I have it would be ok to spray in the neighborhood of 200-250...We'll see. I want to get used to this level of power first.

Great setup, congratulations!

John

Ready to move on. Still needs to be tuned on nitrous and Formato is weeks away. I would still have a small fuel issue to fix before spraying it.

Your heads, cam & intake package. I would have love to see what it would do with E85 as originally plained.

ZR1 with mods. Would like to see if I can get it to make 800WHP with a small cam.

Other option is a GTR but my first choice right now is the ZR1.

did you have to cut the shroud to get the nitrous fuel rails and solenoids to fit? We did and then laid the rubber weather molding back over so you couln't tell. Looks like a nice install.

Why not get it tuned with nitrous and then drive it on nitrous before selling? MIght decide you want to hang on to it for awhile!
