u only wish u were famous..lol. And man..4hp? thats awesome!...wish i could get 4hp more!. lol. So basically 1* = 1hp...sweet. If i want to get my car to 400hp i only need to go to 100* of timing...well im at 24* so iiunno, to tired to do math

Don't use washer fluid.... Fill up a 5 gallon tank w/ 3.5 gallons of methanol, and 1.5 gallons of distilled H2O. I'll fill you in on it tomorrow while we install and tune
Timing abovew 26* does not add power. It's a waste

Well if anyone is interested, I am selling my Labonte Motorsports stage 3 meth kit, with larger 1 gallon tank, Failsafe (safety for the car), and Boost Bypass Kit (also safety). I am only asking 450 shipped OBO and it is 625 new for all these options, and ive only had it on the car for a month.

so in other words he should get retuned? im pretty close to purchasing the base kit..say a check vlave fails or sticks open or shut..how do i fix it? just remove the nozzle and clean? or what...also.. if im running..13 degrees of timing..and i bump it up to 18ish with meth..how much power am i gonna see from that? say im at 310 to the wheels with full exhaust,TVS,2.9 pulley, and a tune on 13 degrees of timing..and i get meth and get tuned to 18 to 20 degrees of timing..could i see 330whp? theoretically.. i know every car is different and im actually more interested in the cooler intake temps than even more power right this second but im really curious to see how much it could add..
i dunno if anyone has dynoed from 13 degrees to maybe 20 to see the difference but if i had to guess u could feel a difference..

if something fails or breaks....take it out clean it. If it doesnt work, send it back if its coverd under warrenty. I'm hoping that was a example hp u have cuz theres no way u r at 310...lol. Maybe 260-270 without meth. From what i've been told...i could be wrong tho. Around the 17-23*timing mark...each * of timing gives u approx 10whp. Higher u go the less hp u get cuz 25* is the drop off. Either way u if start at 13* and then go to 24*...u will see a big difference.

umm i know dude, i own a tvs also. But u cant make 310 without meth and only at 13* or around that of timing. Once on meth and up the timing to 24-25* then yea, he can make that
i said approx not exactly 10whp
like i said above...no meth and only at 13* of timing, doubtful he is at the much power

and it is a smaller pulley...either way...it feels strong lol even if i am lower than whats believed if i up my timing to near 20 u think ill see possibly 20 hp?

if u go from 13* to 20*? yea 20hp is possible. Just curious what other cooling mods do u have? I cant remember. I have meth, CA Heat Exchanger and 2 Step Colder plugs....got mine at 24* and no knock and low iat2. If u get meth and a few other cooling mods u can put more timing and get the most power u can. Also with the cooling mods u can play around with the AFR which also helps. Mine is at 11.9...well now its probably around 12.3-12.5 cuz i just installed header/dp/exhaust. So i have to change my tune. But yea...u r going to see a big improvement once u tune with a meth kit.
Also remember...always under-estimate what u r guessing u have for hp. 9 times out of 10 u will think u have XXXwhp but u will have like 20whp less...also depends on the dyno. When people ask me how much hp i have. Since i havent dyno'ed yet i say "hoping to be at or over 300whp. Then again....dyno numbers r dyno numbers....1/4 is where its at....or autox if thats your poison

awesome.. im excited..and i have 2 step colder ngk plugs and i have the ottp heat exchanger which may i add is massive lol .. the thing took a **** load of coolant lol .. and im currently tuned to mid 11s in the afr.. i feel like im at a point where the car has a lot of potential now..with some meth and maybe a ported head with some cams to match
very good point..thats actually the exact words i say lol it does feel like im at 300 though..especially with meth comin up..

ais said i could take 32 deg windshield washer(i'm in tx) , and for every gallon of that mix 4 bottles of heet. and that'd be a 50/50 setup.
right now im doing 30/70 thought since im not on a tune
it costed next to nothing. if they say its okay, then i'm willing to bet they know what they're talking about

Yeah there is more you can throw at it for sure depending on how lean your running. I could get 18* all day on 93 oct and 25 psi, i just dumbed it down for the dyno.
