My question is: With a nitrous setup on WOT, and say the edge and predator stacked or maybe even more, the Extreme or whatever programs; would this be a lil much doin a 4HI launch? I know w/o the n2o, its pretty hard on parts(from expierence) but with nitrous and SD sleeves, are you guys doing this on WOT? Also, how does the SC III hold through the shifts with n20?

SD kit uses a Hobbs switch to kick on the N2O based on boost pressure. If your at the xmas tree with the boost at 10psi you don't want the N2O on at that point. I have a zf6 and my Hobbs is set at 10 psi but I have no boost until the clutch is let out. with a manny the boost drops on each shift. On a D/A the boost doesn't drop (much) as the shift is quick. You want to get your fuelin' up well before you dump the N2O so using a pressure switch is the best way to go (unless you are a pro dragster?). Start with a hobbs at 18psi and a N2O jet at .60 and work your way up as you see the results. If you have too much N2O for the fuel you will have a burst that will not be good. Suggest a lift pump soon to ensure constant fueling. Be careful because you don't want to fry your clutch packs.
All the dmax 4x4 racers launch in 4hi due to impressive traction and launch times. NLDP just did 11.0x at 123.xmph in a 4x4 launch at IRP. You will have to get your tranny upgraded, and now that I think about it, you might consider holding off on N2O until this is done. Your current stack can probably fry your tranny as it is now. Most of the racers I know of that use N2O have a full clutch pack upgrade and a co-pilot or similar.

Well with the Suncoast III I think the stack should be just fine since the tranny is already upgraded. However, the SCIII doesn't like big shots of nitrous. I would put a co-pilot on if you plan on running the nitrous, it'll be well worth the extra investment.

IBDMAX'IN, what do you mean by the SCIII doesn't like big shots of nitrous?

Big Blue has a SCIII and if you spray the shifts, it will zing them.
So when I started building Casper, I used a CoPilot and everything else I could get my hands on.
