Anytime you start tilting and twisting things you have the potential for more issues... If you want to win a race you have to win the rounds.

I have no idea if Chief uses nitrous. Sometimes turbo combination use nitrous to make up for turbo lag.

Paul,
Last month when I was at the track. I talked for someone running a 4 cylinder engine with a larger turbo and a fogger system. I was surprised when he said he ran the nitrous the full 1/4 mile.
