Went to Atco and ran the following best run on my 150 shot trans am
RT- .020
60 ft- 2.047
1/8- 8.065
MPH- 94.10
1/4- 12.232
MPH- 120.30
Not bad on street tires and stock 10bolt. Other mods are full x pipe, lid, shifter, throttle body. No major mods other than nitrous. I think I could have hit 11's if I did a few more runs or had some drag radials. What ya guys think?

Cool!

Nice to see a few coming
backin and registering again tonight.

Sweet times!

**nhraformula** · 07-30-2005, 07:01 AM

with drag tires you should hit mid 11s.

**Hurley711** · 07-30-2005, 07:16 AM

How many 150 shots can our engines take?

if its set up correctly and tuned, quite a bit

The 150 shot is fine on most of our cars....as long as it was tuned for it on the dyno checking the A/F ratio....the stock fuel pumps handle about 450 horses....its the 10 bolt that you have to worry about

**brad8266** · 07-30-2005, 03:16 PM

I have used my 150 shot plenty of times and I have a stock tune and a upgraded fuel pump to be safe. If setup right nitrous wont hurt the motor much, maybe just a bit of added wear. As for the 10 bolt, its holding up pretty well, its still smooth and doesnt hop or make any weird noises, crossing my fingers though.

How much power can the stock 10 bolt take? I have one in my car and am curious how much torque would shred one.

A4 transmissions are more forgiving than M6s.
the general rule is about 400 rwhp and the rear is gonna go boom

**Hurley711** · 07-30-2005, 04:43 PM

What kills the rear end? Launching it hard? Once you get past the actual launch what can cause damage to the rear end?

the shock of going from a stop

**91Z28** · 07-30-2005, 05:35 PM

400 rwhp? That sucks. ~sigh~ I guess I better save up for a 12 bolt. How much can an average 12 bolt cost? I've seen some around 1600 bucks and that doesn't seem TOO expensive. It better be pretty durable though.

**Hurley711** · 07-30-2005, 07:08 PM

I've seen Moser 12 bolts in the $1600-$2200 range

**brad8266** · 07-30-2005, 08:03 PM

I have been at over 400 for a long time now, and now am close to 500 with a stock rear. Like I said maybe I am just lucky because I hear lots of stock 10 bolt horror stories from people that arent putting out that much power. I am actually suprised I havent broken mine yet.

**91Z28** · 07-30-2005, 09:35 PM

Is it true that strange is better than moser?

More people seem to have Moser, so I guess they have a better product. Cant tell you from experience though.

Cheaper. Perhaps not better.

The stock 10 bolt is a tricky little thing. Some 10 bolts let go on a little over stock power, others last to 500+ horsepower. It is all luck of the draw it seems but give an M6 some sticky tires and the odds go up that its gonna go boom

Like he said if it is still holding up it's luck...
