Get ALL of the bugs worked out of the car on a n/a tune and spray the 150.

BUT

Be ready to build the tranny. It will break sooner or later.

The tranny should go before the motor, provided it's tuned right and doesn't have any other issues that will only get magnified by the nitrous.

I already had a clutch replacement on my long list of things that will need to be taken care of. To many needs/wants, not enough money.

I'll have to give you credit for trying to improve the car. As much as you try you still won't be able to beat Marc or me down the track. HEHEHE
