Because nitrous is a whole other beast. Based on the DA of that run it was 1,507. Maybe if the DA was 0 or negative it might make sense, but c'mon I find it hard to believe that the supercharger at 7 psi of boost is running 12.1x in 1,507 DA environment. EVEN if the LFX fuel pump is fine at 7 psi of boost (which it probably is) 7 psi of boost is not enough to get it 12.1, imho when looking what everyone else is doing.

Actually no, I think you'll find anyone that has been to the drag strip will say 2.1 isn't "hooking." That is average.

I love to hear the smak talking and we're definitely in for some good racing next weekend. But the manufacturers for both of these FI systems are class acts so just because you're on one side or the other please keep it light and pull for each other to get the most out of these cars. They worked hard to bring FI to the V6 community and you guys are ones experiencing both the hickups and the successes as well.

No doubt, I think everyone here can agree (and that would be a first) that both of these companies have gone great lengths for us and for that we should all be thankful.
