Just got off the phone to Bob, a gentleman I sold an IGNITECH ignition module to for his salt flat racer.
Stock std trx with a wet mix of nitrous he would hit at for 3 second blasts from 6500rpm onwards.
Jetting set ups given with the nitrous kit where for an increase of 10hp/20,30 and 40hp gains in power.
20hp shots got him upto 120mph at 9500rpm but it was a bit fatal on the 40hp shot and detonated the motor.
But as he mentioned he was still running the default ignition map and as he said, "I think I should have retarded the timing."
So I forwarded contact details for Arias as now he's chasing some forged Pistons for the rebuild for next years event and working on a revised map for his ignition.
Now this will be a fun experiment to get involved in...
