I also have another beef the N1's felt very weak compared to my sr16 cams And i don't mean just down low either EVERYwhere especially up top!!!! Any reason for this? I am hoping that the sludge was the culprit and once its removed along with BC valve springs, headgasket replaced and some arps installed ( I had them from my turbo car so why not?) The car will run amazing?????? I hope?
btw the compression is equal across the board and the bottomend is VERY clean(NO sludge down there) and the oil pick up tube was checked removed and cleaned awhile ago.
I guess I just have bad luck with cars
I am not giving up and once its fixed tuned and running mid 13's like its suppose to the NITROUS will go on!

Did you double check to make sure you didn't suck your throttle body screw into the motor?
