This is kinda scary for me, but i am warming up to it!! The 75 shot was not that noticeable, it was ok but nothing special. I can really feel the 100...just got done hitting it a few times and its NICEEEE. Ear to ear smiles!!

Oh to answer the question, during testing, sport mode was OFF (FTL!!). I forgot to tell him to do that! do you guys think my numbers suffered? I dont even know if my numbers are good, i dont know what to compare them to. Seems good, the 100 shot definitely put 100hp to the crank like advertised LOL - and at least 80 to the wheels.

MrSlayX: ya bro we did lean it out some with a different jet but we could do it even more for sure. He ran the **** out of my car during the testing and it seemed to work GREAT.......so i am going to stick to where its at now until someone figures out how to crack our ECU.

This is fun though!! My first dyno run was something to remember!!
LOL, you sound like a little kid at Christmas, bro!! That's awesome! I'm happy for you!

God I wish I had the money to play with my F!

MAPECU3 will allow you to adjust fuel and timing throughout the entire rpm range. I've been running mine on my is350 for 6 months and put down 293 whp the last time I dynoed.

I've since added 4 degrees of timing near redline so I'd like to get it re-dynoed. Anyway, I think it's something for you to look into if you want a way to at least half way manipulate the fuel and timing to your benefit.

Now you need the bottle warmer, the remote opener, and an electrical nitrous pressure gauge for the glove box...

I can find out if it will work with the 2UR-GSE. Speed for Sale sells them and I know Jeremy can answer that question. As long as it doesn't have to drive the injectors directly, it should work.

Definitely possible, doesn't drive injectors, just adjusts maf signal to supply more or less fuel. Adjusts spark duration for timing.

There's actually a guy down in Texas with a mapecu isf. He gave me great advice when i was installing mine. I'll find those emails

I've had nitrous on a few of my cars. It's fun but it sucks when you are racing and you run out during the middle of the run and the other guy passes you I would crack my bottle open every morning when I'd go to work just in case I'd run into something good on the way. I don't miss the $2-300/month in bottle fills.

You DEFINATELY want to get a bottle warmer. Your wasting your time without it. You want 1000 psi at all times when your spraying or your fuel/nos ratios will be off. At 775 psi and under your NOS is boiling to a gas in the bottle... That setup with tuning probably cost you over a grand, the extra 150.00 is a small expense..
