Does any one know if it is normal for the VSR to drop almost 40 lbft of torque between 3750 & 4750 rpm & between 4k & 4600 theres a 10 bhp drop ? with & without the nitrous. I have just had mine on the rollers, and there is a very obvious drop - however you dont really notice it when driving... [ 882_rolling_road.jpg ] [ Edited ] [ Edited ]

I would believe that any standard engine would struggle with anything above 25, that was why i chose the Vr - well built and solid. it has taken the 50 with no probs, and with the help of trhe progressor, (allowing gradual power build up) it should be ok with the 100's. I have read that in most cases, the clutch will start slipping and by regular inspection of the plugs, (which with a shrick is very difficult!) you can almost always stop before detonation.. Sorry if the message seemed rude, it wasnt meant to be, late night & too much work on! !dodge %-6

the engine has had no internal upgrades, only plugs, leads and soon to do hoses. external, the shrick, ind kit and brakes. I think i am probably at the limit now for 250brake (ish), could do with anyone else who has gone this route to offer feedback..? as i said, i am looking for a 2.9 as i am expecting a bang - although i am hoping that the progressor will assist in prolonging life for the rest of the season. Why would runnning nos in sensible doses i.e. 25brake be a no no for a vr6 or any car?? :?

This sunday may be the big bang?!?!?! !dodge but i have my eye on a 2.9 incase, with a view to major uprating... The kit cost me £250 of a mate (usually £5-600), since then, i have spend £300 on a 2nd 11lb bottle and brackets, £300 on a dynotune, purge kit, switch centre and pressure guage, and £370 on the digital progressor, oh yeah, and £50 per refil / bottle! (i'm up to about 6 so far!!!) but i am told you do calm down after a while...? all in all with the rolling road setup on thursday, around £1500. but to be pushing 300 brake at the end of it... worth every penny i think?? be interes

Mine is set up through a single fogger drilled in the air inlet pipe.. apparently good for up to 150BHP, if you want to go above that, then direct port (drilled in each intake port) but i've heard this can be a bugger if a single injector fails... I wouldnt go back and i'm 100% sure i'll be fitting it to my next project http://www.noswizard.com/bboard/index.php?sid=cf2650289e5ec31047c71d77d4413c4f this forum is pretty usefull and they are all really helpfull!
