[W126 Coupe] POWER

[Shayegan, Richard]

Is the emphasis on BANG because that's what will happen when you A)run
nitrous for too long B) make a mistake and run a full boost from a dead
stop or C) start your engine in the morning after one of the nitrous
nozzles was leaking all night?
And I ALWAYS jump the gun.

Richard jumped the gun on the reply again.  Nitrous is THE best bang for
the
buck (emphasis on the BANG).  Just get a 20 lb bottle, 100 hp nozzles,
add
fuel runner (or propane) and you are good to go.

RE the gear ratio, the RPMS will go up, which gives you more power on
the
start...don't go over board though...i'm running 275 rear tires and lose
races cause I'm sitting there smoking my tires instead of moving
forward.
