Default Installed meth kit, happy!!!!!

So I got my Snow kit installed. I went with the stage 1 kit because it is all I needed.
Relay is powered on by the same hobbs switch that turns on my KB Boost a pump.
Plumbed in front of the TB. Running the 175 ml nozzle.
Filled the tank 1/2 way full with WW Fluid (-20) and added a bottle of yellow heet.
My AF was 12.2 before at 7 pounds of boost, so I figured I would not have to mess with the tune much.
First run yesterday was to test the system. No changes to anything, just testing to make sure things come on (Hobbs at 5 pounds etc)
I was surprised to see boost increase to 9 pounds. (So much for changing a pulley)
Did not have the wideband set up, but I picked up no knock.
I plan to do some more runs tonight and see how the IAT is doing and play with timming.

That's pretty impressive.. 2 lb more boost with only meth kit! I really don't know a lot about fi... But that seems like it would be worth the price!

AsI understand it, the spray creates denser air (I see higher boost when it is really cold outside) and also "seals" the spae between the blades of the whipple. (Hard to explain, wish I had a picture)
So I can see how that happens.
Tonight I am going to log IATs and see if I can switch to the 375 nozzle.
If I can get them anywhere near ambient, or 20 plus, I will add timming.
I hate 170+ IAT temps. I want to see how cold I can get this whipple.

i run their red nozzle i think. Its the bigest single nozzle. The new set up will probably have two or three nozzles.

My kit came with an M10 nozzle. Is that too big for my application? (currently at about 8psi, plan to add LT's within the next few months)
