The meth kit it is. I tow a boat sometimes twice a year, do you think a stall is ok? If so how big of a stall.

how big of a boat? i towed 4000lb's thru the mountains with the yank3000 and didn't have any problems but if you have a really big boat you might want to go more mild. the 3000 is prety mild though.

Back to meth setup, what is a good brand and does anyone have a part# on it? As far as bolt ons now what else is the best bang for your buck? Thanks alot guys for all the help.
Hehe, the question about how much boost on a stock bottom will probably light a firestorm...but for my .02 cents, I have been running 12 psi of boost on the stock bottom since September. I have been throwing 650 hp to the crank since February 22nd......My short block is stock with 49,000 miles on it, the last 3000 at 12 psi. I am getting good results with my meth kit. It is a stage 2 Snow Performance with the controller. I start spraying at 1 psi and go full spray at 10 psi.... Like Parrish says, depending on the heavinest of yout right foot you should see a couple tanks per gallon of meth. I mix mine from walmart. 1 gallon of winter washer fluid to 2 bottles of Heet. Cost about 3 bucks to make a gallon.....

Hope this helps....

i hated my bbk. it made the truck very dificult to drive. lungy. i think someone makes a larger tb that somehow flows more air when open all the way up but is progresive at part throttles so it doesn't get all jumpy.
