If I lived in Cali I would have no 2nd thought about doing the meth injection as the gas there is horrible

I run 100% VP M1 which is cheap and easy to attain, very good quality and remember methanol is hydroscopic so you need to keep it tightly sealed.

Once you run the meth you will never go back , it makes such a difference in what the car feels like powerwise, it moves from a quick car at 350+ hp to a fast car at perhaps nearly 400hp with gobs more torque for finding that open hole in traffic.

You made 353whp before the alchy? You said all the staged upgrades, isn't that their turbo kit then? and 31psi? So you should be looking at around 6--whp.

I have all the "stage 4" bolton stuff less the turbo and intake manifold.

The difference in power between windshield washer fluid and straight methanol can be more then 50 whp in the case of an aftermarket turbo. on a stock turbo I can see a difference of as much as 40 whp.

Wait, so how are you running 31psi on the stock turbo? I see by assuming built motor, but I mean the stock turbo can produce power that high and actually allow 31psi?

I thought 31psi on the Stock Turbo was too high anyways. I thought the stock turbo was maxed out at about 25psi, not anywhere near 31 though.

Buschur's stock turbo when he ran 30PSI, the compression wheel blew up and peices of it embedded itself into the housing. He posted pictures in another thread.

I think it can peak there at 30psi, but drops off quickly....

Yes it can make 30psi and that is where the big torque #s come from, remember with the stock turbo whatever you see for torque is directly related to the amount of boost being run.
