ET Prediction
Does anyone have a guess as to how much ET would be gained with a 200 HP increase in power in a 2000 Lbs ride? Current engine has 1100 and runs 4.67- 4.70.

your current motor shows 1035hp on wallace site per et of 4.67 and 200hp more shows 4.40 et

It depends on if you can use the extra HP off of the line or not. I don't know anything about your dragster so this is just a WAG.

Now
60 Foot ET = 1.1116
330 Foot ET = 2.9986
1/8 Mile ET = 4.6731
1/8 Mile MPH = 146.0422

Plus 200 HP
60 Foot ET = 1.1115
330 Foot ET = 2.9385
1/8 Mile ET = 4.5152
1/8 Mile MPH = 155.7952

For what its worth, When I played with nitrous several years ago. my 2000lb dragster ran low to mid 4.70s on motor, a 200 shot on for 3 secs and it would run low to mid 4.50s so basically .200 faster
