You can try playing with your timing a little bit. Also, the 750 will help your car breathe a little better, hopefully you got mechanical secondaries instead of vacuum.

Another tip, and it's entirely up to you, is that I'd take the hood off. It's quite bulky and heavy I'm sure. Like I said, it's your call on that.

If you're not using 100 or 102 octane, try using some of that as well(I don't know what they offer in your area).

And lastly, pull your exhaust off there and let it breathe straight headers(only at the track of course).

Well you have 3 options as I see it more HP ,less weight or more traction (if thats a problem) or ideally some of each.N2O should give you 3/10ths

Thanks for the info and yes i have mechanical secondaries ,the only octane i can get at the track is 116 is that to much, i tryed uncapping the headers once and it did pick me up 1 tenth,i might give the hood i try. Thanks Ronnie
