As cheap as possible. You know how 1st gen guys are :roll:

I'll probably be done pretty soon, it would be cool to break 500 on a meat n taters budget, even if it is with nitrous.

Yeah I have a DDP fuel pin and I double checked its position. Who thinks I should try a set of 6x16's since I have nitrous?

I think the next step should be a 1st gen air to air intercooler or the like. Remember nonIC'd injectors with a 1st gen intercooler is good for at least 350rwhp with an hx35.

What was your fuel supply pressure on the dyno? You made 301 on #2 the last time you were up there. What is your fuel supply?

You will probably need to knock the AFC out of that thing to make 450 on spray.

I'll be hittin the dyno again in a week or so. I've never found runaway on my truck yet, so I aim to do so and then back it off an 1/8th a turn and see what it does with a -4 nitrous line and 1200 psi of bottle pressure 8)

Ok, haven't made it back yet. Truck is making funny ringing noises that appear to be coming from the converter/flexplate area that I have to check out. Also got tired of turning my truck up to runaway to make any decent power, and with the compressor upgrade and nitrous I should be able to burn more fuel, so I am stepping up to a set of 6x.016 injectors from New Era and heading back to the dyno with a -4 nitrous line. Any guesses on power? I better be over 400 now :roll:

I run 6-18's and have way to much fuel for a 64/71/14 never mind a holset with a comp upgrade. You will have a very smokey truck. I feel I have at least 100-150hp worth of fuel left and maybe more. I should have the nos installed this weekend so I will let you know. I think those injectors would be way to much for your turbo and daily driving, should be good on the dyno with lots of nos thou. :D Keep us posted. Oh ya my guess for your truck is 412rwhp on lots of spray and those 6-16's.

I'm thinkin 6x16s and nitrous will grenade your H1C in a hurry

I've ran my 8x11 with my STG IV and let out at 57psi and climbing and 2000 degrees

It was still extremly smoky

The K31 cleans em up though :lol:

What size exhaust housing are you running? I'm hoping my 18cm housing will be laggy enough not to grenade the turbo. Also I'll only be spinning up to like 3000rpm, so I think that might help as well. Most turbos I've seen pop have done so at higher rpms. I do have a 38mm wastegate I stole from the guys at J&H Performance. I might put that on before I hit the dyno again.
