94 z28 bogs on drag strip

I have a bone stock z28 camaro auto. 2.76 gears or something. I run a wet nitrous kit with a stand alone fuel system at 5 psi fuel pump for the wet side running premium fuel with a premium flash tune. traction control off. When I run the car on the street it seems to run great when I engage the nitrous and fuel with a push button. But when im at the drag strip once I engage the nitrous it bogs and feels like it loses 100hp or goes into a limp mode and a check light flashes but havnt been able to see what its flashing for yet. I know it could need some new plugs and wires they dont look the best but I figured that would cause more of breaking up than bogging. could it be my torque converter ? I usually hit the nitrous at wide open throttle around 3500 rpm. any ideas why it bogs and once the run is over the power comes right back. also I ran it one time just NA and it bogged like crazy and once when I hit the nitrous the rpms went to the moon but the car didnt budge. its like the auto trans hates drag strips but will run all day on the street.

Re: 94 z28 bogs on drag strip

Is this a new problem, or has it existed since you installed the nitrous kit?

Where is the nitrous/5 PSI fuel nozzle located?

Surprised your 94 has traction control. Thought 95 was the first year.

No way to pull the code? That would seem to be useful info.

Is timing retard in the “premium flash tune”? Who tuned it?
