it doesnt matter i have mine set up with the map sensor but i am going to change it to the boost line
if you some how get a bad connection with the map sensor and you dont spray meth say bye to your motor

hmm ok.. yeah i've been leaning more towards the boost pressure one. seems more reliable, and for my application i want to start injecting meth at a certain boost pressure. also seems easier as well.

if you dont spray your motor will pull timing. shouldnt be that much of a problem.

is has nothing to do with timing meth adds unmonitored gas and when you spay you need to take fuel away. so if you are not spraying your car goes really lean and blows up

i dont know if this is correct but when your car pulls timing doesnt it also need less fuel at that point, putting you back in to a safer range when the meth fails to spray? i could be dead wrong on this.

ya it will start knocking. the car will automatically put it in safe range. thats what the knock sensors are for.

What do your inlet air temps look like? any kr? It honesty can make a pretty good diffence going from a 3 to a 5

you can try bigger. imo if you go any bigger more than likely you are going to need to increase you % of meth in the mix to make a 10gph nozzle work.
