Winter plans= Water/Meth kit,RR SC Pulley,Maintenance,tires etc.

First of all, I'm most excited by the AIS(Alcohol injection systems) Stage 2 competition trunk mount kit. I will be running a 3 nozzle set up. One small one before the head unit and the other 2 small ones close to the throttle body.

I will be running a 49/51% Methenol to water mix. The one nozzle will help control temps at the Compressor, since I plan on spinning it pretty hard, and the two nozzles at the TB will finish cooling the iat's while also adding octane. In addition to my FMIC setup. This allowing for me to run 20+* of timing while on 93 octane fuel. All without using the expensive torco race gas concentrate I do now @ $20 a can. Even though my everyday tune is only 27 hp less @ 638 than the torco tune. It's lazy under the curve becuase it only being 15* of timing compared to 20* on the torco.

Even though their kits have always been great their new competition tank is even slicker, concealing the pump underneath and the new tank holds 3 gallons instead of 1.5. It also has a provision for an extra pump, if needed, for super high hp applications.

I will also be running a progressive controller. That allows for a onset boost level and high boost setting where it hits full capacity.

It's on it's way and I can't wait to get my hands on it.

Pic of the kit. Minus the tri nozze upgrade. I will take detailed pics as soon as it shows up. The terrible winter storms this year are slooowwing every thing down.

I ordered a 8 rib Reichard Racing 2.8" supercharger pulley. I'll be spinning the **** out of the SC so I will see how much the kit helps.






I'm also replacing one of the o2 sensor extenders because it was melted against the headers. Plus the o2 sensors, spark plugs, oil change along with a retune.



I bought some cheap Sumitomo tires. 315/35/17. I've had them before. I hated how huge the thread gaps were. But since I plan on running 15" wheels next year at the track I got them. I'm just tired of buying DR's every year

Very busy with a sick mother. Driving 4 hours each way to Johns Hopkins hosp. Is there anyway to merge the other thread that I accidently started in the other forum.
