Lightbulb Dyno Numbers with Nitro Methane

Well, I just tested out a dyno jet today.

With Comp off, I hit 209/ 383

Comp 5x5, I hit 305/ 596

With Nitro Methane Race Fuel Mix, and Comp I hit 402/ 845

And no, I didn't peg EGT's. On nitro fuel blend I only hit 1480* once.

It is going to be interesting to see how long that motor lasts. I bet it wont be long.

Where did you find a dyno jet? What model was it?

Almost 100 hp and 250 lbs of torque! That's impressive.

That is not a good thing to do with your pistons, your injectors, pump, etc.

When it blows up would you mind sending me a piston to hardness test?

I assume nitro methane will affect the aromatics of diesel fuel? Could the nitro methane be injected via a water/meth system? This would bypass the pumps and injectors? How corrosive is nitro methane on aluminum pistons?

I'd like to see a picture of a piston when it blows as well. Just spray a mild shot of nitrous and save some heartache.

nitro is very hard on bearings and oil it absolutelly destoys oil and likes to wash bearings so using this on a full time deal would be a bad idea unless you want to change the oil every day.

So basically he is destroying the LP, IP, and washing the oil off the cylinders, and that's not counting blowby. Weeeeeeeeee!

I've got a buddy that ran some nitro methane through his Dmax, he put it in the methanol injection bottle. He said it might have hit a little bit harder but nothing too noticable. I agree with the weird sound, his Dmax exhaust had a super dep rumble to it. It was pretty cool... especially because it wasn't mine
