Nitrous, the power adder of fags

Wrong guy.
My name is Troy. I do not know who Hyper is or what his name is. I have searched Hyper for a few minutes, and never even found any threads by him. I will continue to search, and will eventually find them.
If I came across as an *** hole in some of my posts, keep in mind that I have just started this whole forum thing when I joined Miataturbo. I have been working on my etiquette, and have toned down my comments. Give me a break.
Did Hyper have a nitrous car?

I don't really think you're him, and no offense, but those sentences I bolded in my previous post are almost word for word the kind of **** he used to say.
Always thinking he's smarter than EVERYONE. Always saying "I have this awesome revolutionary idea" etc etc etc. Never actually sharing it. And the details he DID share were more stupid than my dogs turds.

I am not trying to prove that I am smarter than everyone.
It is a little intimidating when I am the only guy going a different route than everyone else. It pissed me off when people were knocking my set up and when I am trying to do something different than everyone else. It makes it hard not to be an *** and try to prove them wrong.

You misunderstood me apparently. I encourage you to try for it, I just can't see it happening based on other numbers I have seen on Miata's. You can't come on a car site and claim to be able to do something no one else can, or claim to have possibly run faster than any other 200hp Miata and not have anything to prove it. I'm just saying you need to prove it.

Go to drag times, and find a car that has run what I have with a similar set up or horsepower. Go to this site. I have the timeslip of the nitrous run in this thread.
I have been searching for miatas that have gone faster than that (with similar horsepower) since it happened, and I have not found one yet. I did not make that comment without researching it first.
The time that is posted on this site, in the timeslip section, by me is at my car's current normally aspirated set up.

Not saying your times aren't impressive, but honestly I don't know what the record for 200hp Miata's would be, drag isn't my thing in the case of the Miata, not a platform I care to build from for drag racing. I see a 1.7's, but 1.7 and 1.5 are worlds apart, unless I missed a 1.5 60' slip somewhere.

And by the way, I never said "I am going to run 1.5's"
I said that I thought it was possible to run 1.5's. I would be willing to bet that it has already been done in a very high powered miata somewhere.

For my sake, would you clarify what times you are referring to and post an example or someone else's time. I'm not exactly following what you are claiming. Best 60' in the ~200hp range? Best ET in ~200hp range? Best nitrous Miata time? Honestly I don't really care either way, since I don't like nitrous and I don't like Miata's as drag cars, but you seem to be trying really hard to prove your point. Don't mean that in an offensive way.
I guess I am just not blown away with a 1.7 60' and a 13.## ET. Being as most of the drag racing I take part in deals with much faster stuff, I am not sure if those times are impressive. And why would I not make a comment "like that," I'm trying to figure out if what you are claiming is true and impressive. Educate me drag master.

Best 60' and ET in a 200 horsepower miata of any format.
Mod, I think it is about time to close this thread. I will start another thread about my build later.

Holy ****, I was right about you all along. Someone got their feelings hurt or got a sandy vagina.

RELAX
Don't let people get to you this easily. We are busting your ***** here, nothing more nothing less.
You want to cut a 1.5 '60 in a slicked and nitroused miata, no one's stopping you. I hope you get a vid. I want to see what it looks like to get out of the hole like a bat out of hell.
We're challenging you to do it more than just plain hating on you. At least I am anyhow. So don't get your panties in a bunch

Been there done that with just nitrous, now im going to use it to save my brakes as a spool assist instead of brake boosting.
I enjoy it more on vehicles where turbo is less of an option.
