Mine works that way on my pump gas tune I do believe, once the engine is being boosted the water meth system sprays and prevents detonation. Perhaps I'm wrong, so what is it then if I'm wrong. But I do think the water meth system will be incorporated in this 93 octane tune.
To be quite honest Greg:
I really don't know a who lot about turbo boost power...
But I do know how to make old school HP...
no power adders, turbo's or super chargers....
I have how ever taken a 327 and pumped her up to 608hp...(@the wheels)
via, punching it, port, polish, balance, cam lifters, heads, valveing, roller rockers carbs etc.. (Dual quad tunnel ram) setup....
with a dash of air plane fuel added for good measure.....hehehehehehe

So,
My guess is just ball park on Johns...

Its via an airpump with a dash of fuel....lol

Turbo I gotta question, you ever have experience with a fenderwall intake gain vs a regular CAI intake Vs a drop in filter?

It's nice to see the predictions from members on how much power she will make. This is entertaining

As far as a fwi vs cai vs drop in I've never really messed with this do to being turbo. I would guess fwi is the best do to the coolest air possible with a sealed cai second. A drop in I don't see doing much do to the intake pipe being restrictive etc.

Oo! Oo! This is fun. I watch The Price is Right (well not since Bob Barker actually). The way to play this is to bid 1 hp more than the highest, or bid only 1 hp so you don't go over. Its the closest without going over, right?

Stumpmi screwed that up by going 615 hp, 593 ft/lbs. I might be turbo montes biggest fan, but that's a lofty goal! But I'll trump Zippy and go 522 hp and 465 ft/lbs of torque!

Good luck John and make sure you video that ****! I'm very excited to see the results!
