Yes. You should be able to do that no problem.

Yeah, if you can ever hook up, you should be able to get 13s. That's unless your motor goes boom from running nitrous with advanced timing

You should be able to do this with no problem..

Stock in my 2k2 Auto I ran a 14.78 @ 93 MPH

With my Injen intake and wet 50 shot, not to mention chrome 18" wheels w/ crappy tires, I ran a 14 flat at 102 MPH..

BTW I have my RPM switch spraying from 3600 to 6000..

Put your timing back to stock for sure, and get some drag radials or slicks and you should be low 13's

If it's times you are really after, then you have to go to Silver Dollar. It is at least .5 seconds faster than Commerce...

Don't run nitrous with advanced timing unless you enjoy swapping engines. Perhaps you should look into your mods a little more to make sure you have what you really want on there... you don't want mods that can conflict and cause a motor failure.

Well everyone says it not safe to run advanced timing etc when running nitrous and I would stick to it. Although SR20DEN ran a 150+ dry shot with advanced timing and stock heat range plugs for a while. I'd estimate he went through at lease 15 bottles without ever hurting anything.

When it comes to nitrous.....the more retarded the timing(to a point)the more power you make
