I see what you are saying. I am not willing to try that on the bottle. I can see me leaning it out some, the fuel ring is still really visible, but advancing the timing, I am already right near the bend. I could add a degree or two, but that is about it.
Speak to me jeff, can over PM if you want. I wouldnt mind some guidance if you are willing to give it.
Here's an update for anyone thinking about using a NANO.
I have ran this for two years now and would never go back to the way nitrous use to be. It solves almost all the problems that I hated about using nitrous. The largest issue was bottle pressure, either too much in the heat or too little in the cold. Even if you had the right pressure when you started the pass you could be sure it wouldn't be there at the end of the pass and the result was a rich motor. If the track got shut down due to a car breaking infront of you then all you could do was hope. Hope the bottle pressure would drop enough in the first 330 to not lean the engine out and take out a ring pack or two. It was that or not make a pass to go back and cool the tank back down. Or in the cold you stood the chance of running your battery down running the bottle heater.
With the NANO:
All I have to do in the heat , like 90 degrees or more, is put two small zip lock bags of ice under the bottle cover on the tank. That will keep it cold for an hour or more. So if a car breaks while you are in the stagging lanes I'm not worried anymore what my bottle pressure is going to be when I finally run. In the cold, below 75 degrees, I have to do nothing. Thats right, no heaters no nothing!! Just turn it on and never look at it again the entire day.
So thats the old hassle part or typical nitrous out of the way but the biggest plus is no more tune up issues. The wide band doesn't go rich on the big end of the track. Does that get you more ET? Not much but it stops the chance of hurting ring packs or the other bad things that too much fuel will do as well as slow the car down.
For the guys running 150 shot or less then maybe this is not needed. For the guys over that it's worth the expense. Like I said earlier, I wouldn't run a nitrous system without it now that I have had a NANO System.
I'm not trying to sell you anything so better feed back than a marketing release from a company that sells NANO's.
