What Next?

Reposting as I had no comments from anyone (which surprises me) on my other post:

Hello everyone... Since I was last online I was finishing the motor. Well, all seems to be good these days accept a cold start smoke problem I haven't nailed down yet. I am managing about 40psi of boost, having a hell of a time shifting the stick, but once I get moving, its like a Leaf Blower and a bungee cord...

So, question...

I have the H2E and have heard that having it upgraded makes a considerable difference. Can anyone comment on their experience / difference?
Beans will upgrade it to 1200CFM for just under $700, and Hypermax will upgrade it for $1200. Any idea why Hypermax would be almost twice the price? Is there something they do that Beans doesn't?

I towed my first long trip with it a month ago, and WOW! 13K behind me for about 600miles of mostly hills and mountain terrain, and it was INCREDIBLE! However I did have to watch my EGT's quite a bit, so what is the most affordable solution to get these down even more.

What does water injection do?

What about methenal Injection?

Where does one go from here?

Suggestions?

John, good to hear that your truck is running good. The water/meth injection will allow you some additional control on your EGTs. Those running it seem pleased, at this point probably the best option for you.

Do you know anything about the difference in upgrade to the H2E that Beans offers vs Hypermax?
