    What a difference a week makes! Some tuning/tweaking help from Dave@B&G, Wade, CobraKid, JMatt, BLTFED and others and here are the results.

    1/8 Mile (640' above) - very low humidity & 60 degrees. Perfect night.
    125 N2O w/75 Fuel jet, WOT Fuel -3% all ranges, B&G N2O tune

    1st run - 1.624 60', 7.485 @ 91.85
    2nd run - 1.645 60', 7.476 @ 92.35

    I was so stoked. I bet I had 20 different people walk over and ask about the Jeep. Some guy thanked me for winning him some money from his buddy becasue he bet him I would run under 7.5. Raced a low 7 sec Mustang and the guy tracked me down because he said he could not believe he could not pull away from a "freakin Jeep".

    During the bracket racing at night's end I also ran my best ever NA time of 8.031 @ 86.21. Ran an 8.03 the run before but got out early so I would not break out becasue I had the guy beat. That would have been a sub-7 NA time becasue I was going 72 MPH at the trap.

    Anyway, thanks again to everyone for your time and help! Last night was as much fun as I have had in a while. Now I have to get to a 1/4 mile track so I can post an 11 sec slip.

    Very strong ETs on motor and on the spray. You're going to need to change your screen name for those nitrous runs, LOL. Congrats!

    Nice job! Those 1/8th mile times were very likely 11 second 1/4 mile passes. Now just get to a full length track!

    Engine mod list:

    DR Heads
    Comp 268 cam
    Kooks LT's w/Hi Flows
    B&B Catback
    Volant CAI
    Iridium plugs
    B&G N2O tune

    There is time to be shaved off with a custom tune. I'm also really interested in some of the more agresssive cam's available now. I'm addicted and not afraid to admit it.

    Do some research with all the vendors there are some awesome cams from each of them now that tuning is out and I agree you have more power with you mods than your unleashing with good DA and cool weather your looking at 7's in the 1/8 NA

    Congrats that is a very strong 11, When I ran my 2 fastest passes my 1/8 mile increments were like 7.45@94mph. Is it safe to assume when you say 75fuel jet you mean the jet they suggest for a 75 shot ?

    Good Job, I wish I had your NA times my best is a 8.3 I think

    Nice, you have a solid mid 11s run in there with some tuning. Bevsjeep ran 11.68 with your same mods on 100 shot.

    Chris, I hops so becasue I have Bevs Zex kit in my Jeep.

    BLTFED, yes, Zex 75 fuel shot jet

    Here are the stats:

    A/F during 2nd run = 04_29_AFR.jpg
    I could probably pull another .5% fuel.

    Spark & KR during 2nd run:

    This is at launch thru 1st gear = 04_29_SPK_KR_NOS.jpg

    At some point after that the spark kicks way up and the KR goes away and never comes back:

    04_29_SPK_KR_NOS2.jpg 04_29_SPK_KR_NOS3.jpg

    On the 3rd run I logged KR with the DashHawk and it was as high as 8 just after launch but soon after went down to 0 and stayed.

    Does it take some time for the spark to get to a point to kill KR? Seems as soon as the sprak got above 20 or so KR went and stayed away.

    NOTE: The high timing numbers above are immediatley after the run when I got out of the throttle. They were not during the run. The KR went away becasue I started coasting.

    I'd leave the A/F on your nitrous tune if its around 11.5-12.0 now for NA you probably could probably lean it out 2 degrees in each table and knock you will just have to pull timing, run and re-check

    Wade, cobrakid and Chris, I notice that none of you has headers. I wonder if they are causing the ultra-sensitive knock sensors to jump so high on knock which is then pushing the timing?
