I see you have the vortech elbow where is your nozzle placed? Did you cut the divider out of the vortech elbow? Thanks

montepace, would you mind listing to me what wires from the mallory box you connected to where? I'm desperately trying to figure out why the car won't run right when the HSR is not activated. It blows driving around with an automatic 1* of retard. I might call the mallory tech support as well. Thanks, Later. Brian
Couple of thoughts on it running rich (which will also make less HP)
What fuel pressure are you running? NX is calibrated for 43.5-45 psi, if you are running more it will be richer..
NX jets are made with a chamfer/venturi design, similar to a Holley jet, drilling them out will ruin the flow and mixing properties of the jet, and the number (31,35) does not equate to a drill size.
Their systems normally make more power than advertised.. my Shark nozzle with 100 hp jets makes closer to 120 hp.
That info was courtesy of John Stewart, who helped design this stuff, during one of our garage bench racing sessions.. he was a wealth of knowledge.

i am at stock fuel pressure, no changes. i have access to a machine shop, that is who will drill it for me. the numbers on the jets ARE thousands of an inch, i checked them (for instance 33 is 0.033", 52 is 0.052"). if i drill one of my jets it will be exactly like theirs is.

i bought the harness to connect the ignition to the coil and hooked it up per directions. then i ran my 12v wire to the battery (actually to the red block on the inner fender), and the ground to the ground post on the inner fender. thw HSR splices in with the power to the WOT switch from the arming switch, so that it is only active when the system is armed. i did not hook up the auxilary limiter or the window switch yet. i think that is all the wires, off the top of my head.

Are you sure you had 500 ft lbs of torque on the juice?
The reason i ask - is ALOT of people seem to post their clutch slippage (or torque converter flashes) peak on their torque curve as their final number
For example - I dyno'd 3 weeks ago:
360/360 on motor
450/475 on the spray.
However, on that N20 run, the dyno chart spikes to 589 ft lbs of torque.... but I do NOT count that as it is not real. (clutch slipped for a split second when the N20 was engaged....)
So I suppose if I wanted to say I dyno'd 450 hp / 589 ft lbs of torque I could - but whats the point when thats not the real number?
Just curious.
