Default New Setup: Daves Plate and HSW Standalone

Hey guys just thought id throw up some pics of whats been keeping me busy lately. the basics are:

Nitro Daves 78mm wet plate (currently jetted for a 150 shot)
3/16" Stainless hard lines from solenoids to plate
Harris Speed Works dedicated fuel cell polished by yours truely
6AN feed lines to both fuel and nitrous sides

a big thanks the Jeff (jmm98ls1) for letting me use is bender and flaring tool for the hard lines, and putting up with me. also to DopdBrd, for letting me install the standalone before it was paid for lol.

car went 12.0's on the motor, and i'm hoping to be deeeeep into the 11's with the nitrous, and bumping the shift points to 7000 rpm.

anyway here are some pics...thinking about pulling the decals off of the purge and nitrous solenoids so they all match btw.

Very very nice. Why bump up the shift points though? Are you going to run out of rpm on the nitrous?

Nice, but if you don't need to, go easy on the rpm. On the juice with all that torque it's not as important as an NA motor, or so I've been told.

thats a good point!

if all goes according to plans i'll have a NA tune and a N2O tune, that way the NA tune can be optimized (higher RPM, more timing) and the N2O tune can pull some timing and maybe shift it a little short

The same here, I need to send off my other computer to get my NA tune back on track. My shift points for the nitrous really threw off my NA times. Plus I want to try a little more timing NA. I have the base timing on this computer set at 33 and pull timing with a 685 box. I don't want to mess with it as I swear sometimes altering a setting and then trying to put it back doesn't always work out like it should.

no kidding man. 2 optimized tunes seem to be the way to go. especially since i want to have it be as ballsy as possible NA just for screwing around town and such. i think im at 28 degrees total timing right now on mine.
