L98 on dope

This is the L98 i installed in my 89 RS, it has 160 k on it, i just installed a 100 hit of juice to see what it can do, this is on a less than half full bottle, runs pretty good. You can tell when i hit it in first as it bust the tires loose.



This is how you pass a 18 wheeler on nitrous.

Re: L98 on dope

Please, my last motor made over 500 fwhp, this thing on nitrous makes a mere 380...maybe. This thing is just to pass the time, i cannot say i am the safest driver but traffic was plenty clear.

yes it still feels good, the rush never leaves. You just get selective on where and when to get on it

Re: L98 on dope

Just sitting in the garage, waiting for me to tear it apart, once i start i wont stop, so i cannot ouch it yet. I need to swap the new motor into y 86 TA, then the new motor into the 95 Z28, then i can get back to the 89 and get the 383 tore down.
