I would like to know what the difference is between a 330 RWHP nitrous equipted motor vs. a 330 RWHP N/A motor .

Old Set-Up:
Stock Bottom End, Stock H/C/I, Full Exhaust, 3.73 gears, Goodyear F1 tires 225/55/16, And A Zex dry 150 shot.

It was dynotuned at 331 RWHP/ 421 RWTQ with a 150 shot.
It felt great the way the power kicked in when I flipped the switch at 3000 RPMs.

Current Set-up:

306ci
11.5.1 Compression
AFR 205cc Heads (2.08/ 1.60 Valves) (3500-7500 RPM Range)
Lunati Cam (242/252 Duration @0.050) (560/576 Lift) (110 LSA) (3000-7000 RPM Range)
1.6 Roller Rockers
Trickflow R-Series Intake (2200-7200 RPM Range)
1 5/8" Longtubes
Full 2 1/2" Exhaust
110 Octane VP Fuel
4.30 gears
28x10.5" MT ET Drag Slicks

I estimated it will have around 325-350 RWHP with a custom tune. Will this motor feel anything like my old nitrous motor?

Horsepower is Horsepower, doesnt matter if you get it from the bottle or not. But It may feel different because of wear your powerband is...But probably not

U got a real nice setup there and it s/b putting down 350/350 @ the RW, NA or more.

No it won't feel like ur nitrous motor because of the big difference in rwtq using nitrous.

Now u can throw on a 100 shot and hit 450/500 @ the RW.

The primary difference will be the potential for the N/A setup to pull harder up to the point where you're able to hit the button for nitrous.

Though your nitrous setup may be configured well, there is still s transition between N/A and the juice. An N/A setup will just pull straight through the power band with no transition.

Is it just me or do those heads in your combo seem way over kill for your estimated power. Those heads are being underused. if thats a word. nitrous also makes huge torque down low so i think n/a vs would feel different.
