This may be old hat to some, but I found it real interesting.

I'm glad you posted this link and wish I had thought to scan through this tech section before now.
I notice my little Zex unit didn't make it to the show. :)
MRR23 did a great job doing that test. Its not too often people actuall take the time to test products correctly and document it well too.
I was surprised how the each nozzle affected the a/f with the same 2 jets too.

So, which did you like the most?

the dynotune impressed me the most with it's ability to keep up with the larger sized nozzles. the dynotune is a 1/8" NPT tip versus the TNT and NX Shark being 1/4" NPT
the TNT nozzle, along with the dynotune, had an instant 'hit' to them. when the nitrous came on, the car lifted the nose on the dyno. the others had a softer hit to them. you could tell when they came on, just not as powerful of a hit.
the NX SHO made the most power when trying to match a/f ratio. but, when using the same jetting, the dynotune kept right up with it. the SHO isn't standard in the NX kits. the Shark nozzle is.
TNT and Dynotune same jetting

Don't you mean 1/16"npt and 1/8" npt?

You've got some great info on your site.
Did you gain anything with the PYE3400 converter? I'm thinking about something stronger than the ST3500 I have now, and Mike at Yank says the SS3600 is a good converter for the bottle.

go with the SS3600. the PY3400E is a tight converter. doesn't do so well NA wise. does good on the n2o.

Can you tell any difference when the converter locks up on the bottle?

i don't lock the converter on the bottle.

I'm glad to see the Dyno Tune unit did well. I was one of their first LT1 customers. I love my wet kit!
