boost is not the answer. the sooner people will learn this, the sooner people will stop popping engines.

Area, if you had ~$350 to spend with my set up, what would you go with? You seem very educated in the 'boosted LSJ' field.

Bryan is one of those fellers... that if given a long enough leash... will walk to the corner and **** on the floor!

But keep him in line and he's one of your best friends!

Dual pass doesn't really drop your temps other than maybe a couple degrees. What it does do is help you maintain stable temps for longer.

The extra HE helps, but not tremendously. The dual pass, the same. Together they help a LOT. The meth will help a lot as well. Your temps go down in boost. It's pretty cool. It will also let you run leaner up top which will help your IDCs and HP, and it'll allow you to increase timing for more power.

The bad news it will set you back about $3.50 every 2-4 weeks. lol

You know, I am sitting here assuming he has hpt. If you don't have the ability to get tuned for it, you don't want to get meth.

Bryan, I tried it with newlywed surprise in real player, but all I see is starts.

My buddy isn't too far away and he tunes my car for me. I'd just need a one time tune, right?

You could consider the Racetronics 55# disk injectors. Should be easier to tune then the 60s, for idle and such anyway.

Um not always! Differences, in temperature, humidity, and all that play havoc with these cars!

Yea, they will certainly act better in low PW situations, but does anyone have the offset info on them??
