I remember the first time I srpayed 75 shot, and I about shat myself, then moved to the 100 shot and I remember it would spin all of 1st, 2nd and most of 3rd with 2.73's on street tires on the street...kinda scary, the butt end would just be gliding like it was on ice the tires where spinning that much
 
It seems that with nitrous (in most cases) until you get over a 100-125 shot, it really doesn't make that "poweradder" difference. S/C's are like that, until about 8psi, they really don't seem to "kick in". Yes they make a big difference, but I'm talking about "that" difference.

Maby your not spraying right. Do you have a bottle heater? What was the bottle pressure? Are you sure it wasn't running way rich?
 
i have the trickflow track heat kit on a 11:1 306 set up for nitrous and when i hit the 75 shot zex on mine its like i got a kick in the ass. it hits harder than 150 on the old motor.

i run my bottle pressure at 1100psi. I LIKE TO FEEL THE HIT!
 
i dont know about you but i sure as hell felt it the first time a did a 50 shot!! edelbrock wet system (plate) the tires started spinning at 3500 in 3rd gear while i was going 80. twas nuts.
 
I had the same feeling the first time, but I had a pressure gage and it was reading about 800. After some advice from the nitrous guy, I came back next week with a bottle heater.

Wow, with just the 100 shot and bottle pressure at 950, the car picked up just over 5 tenths and 10 mph in the eighth mile!

A strong kick in the rear feeling.

Love this stuff!
