So a lot of you know that we did a small biuld last winter, the biuld included; pistons, head studs, pushrods, springs, elite 15% nozzles, HP and LP Batmos.
Before the biuld my personal best at the track was 12.89, that was just tuning, intake, and exhaust. After the biuld I couldn't even get into the 12s! I couldn't figure out what was wrong, RP and boost were great, no exhaust or boost leaks, it just puzzled me and everyone I talked to.
Below is the slip for best after my biuld:

At the race weight of 7650 that puts me around 538hp.
Got that slip at the Antrim diesel drags, while there I got talking to Craig about my problems and he said they had just got their first set of 6 hole 15% nozzles in and he'd send them up if I wanted to try them.
So 3 weeks later Marty threw them in for me (thanks Martin!) and it went to atco for some more track time. The only thing we changed were the nozzles and I was very happy with the end result.

According to the calculator that's about 636hp.
This isn't meant as a cut twards elite, but to put this in perspective I lost power hp from stock with my elite 15% nozzles, then gained almost 100hp after swapping to the MPD 15%.
I know there is a lot of debate as to how nozzles size is determined, I was told that these, like the rest of the 6 hole nozzles, were extrude honed 15% over from new stock nozzles.
Lastly, I wanna thank Craig and the crew at MPD for sending those nozzles up and solving this problem I've been struggling with for the past year! You guys rock!
