Should we discuss:
1. How they all swear by "dumb" knock boxes that don't detect detonation except where you tune them to detect it
2. How their customers think that forged pistons and stock rods are the correct way to build motors because "all i need is a little detonation resistance" (ironically the first intelligent thing they've ever said)
Sometimes I cry at night.

Just in case anyone was on the fence regarding Tom's intelligence:

I'm pretty much dumbfounded that people are running 200+whp on superchargers with "5th-injectors" and still have running vehicles. I know Tanner is doing this without issue but that defies logic for my pea-sized brain.

I would still be curious what the IATs were instead of the EGTs since only one of the pair induces the spontaneous fracture of ringlands.

ugh, socal pat is so ******* stupid it hurts my head.
I would get in a boatload of trouble for posting this, so will someone else do it for me:
Also ask which FFS kit uses 315cc injectors, and 4gph of water injection for me.
:jerkoff:
Then again 95% of the purchasers will be doing street duty. Here is one you might know. It's aFFS kit chasing down and passing Black Jesus (Hustler) http://www.youtube.com/user/tanman31.../1/cU_WJiOf-08
I have been tracking a FFS coldside for 3 years now without issue. I'm running 125/65 pulley setup and run copious amount of water injection. More specifically 2gph into the TB and 2gph into the manifold. I'm using a 200psi pump, the gph ratings are at 100psi.
I am running larger injectors, 315cc/min, as well as the 5th injector as supplemental fuel. Not the most ideal setup, but it works.

If he's running the water injectors at 200psi rather than the 100psi that their 2gph rating was made at, he'd be getting closer to 8gph overall, no?
And if I recall the thread here correctly Hustler stomped his *** on the straights... and did major suspension/alignment corrections shortly after.
