Does it seem to respond properly now? I believe I will set mine up in series, where it has to be BOTH full throttle and above 14 psi and 22 psi boost.

Alright guys...new plan here (Thanks to bighoss, for accidentally giving me the idea )

I believe when I get my truck back, I am going to reinstall both my SCMT and water injection kits. I am going to try to stack my SCMT with an Edge Juice/Attitude monitor and run straight water in the injection kit. With doublestacking the chips, I *believe* i should be able to keep my overall boost lower than with my 50/50 mix and my SCMT as the Edge chip should do nothing besides sling in some extra fuel. I will still be able to keep my SCMT ultra-wide powerband (by the way, the dyno results for it are posted on thier website now, not as strong peak as Bob's run with his Predator but it really does carry its power to 4400 rpms) and keep my EGT's resonable with the water.

With this tactic, I can switch my primary enemy from cylinder pressure to heat, which is much more easily monitored.

At least this time, I won't repeat my old mistakes. If I blow another head gasket (which is the only real threat, besides EGTs which i can monitor) I can change it myself; As long as i have someone drag me in instead of melting it down trying to limp it home.

Definately gotta hook up with a predator, though, for no other reason than the comp downloads

None of my business, but I would stick to the SCMT first, then add the water and run it for a while.

As soon as you start mixing methanol or stacking chips, you are crossing the safe line with your street engine.

You don't have anything to prove, especially to us. Just try to keep this one together until you get the engine that is engineered for this type of thing.

Cool! This way you can get the water on if you see the EGTs on the rise and cool it without getting off the throttle.

u still have insane pressures.... the thing ur old motor couldnt take was, LOTS of pressure 75 or so degrees BTDC.

once the smoke starts comin out the pipe, u are very close to ur max in power, and more fuel doesnt help. more timing from stackin is splittin hairs and is harmful to the engine.

my point is, if u are gettin smoke, u need to stack TURBOS not BOXES....

i have to laugh at the guys on the tractors at the pulls that want me to crank up the fuel and timing, and they walk over after their "black toronado pull" covered w/ black rain from the fuel pourin out the pipe askin me if i could please order that turbo now???
