One word for you: methanol. I've used it successfully on my turbo car (Jetta 1.8T) and made 280 WHP with a stock SMIC and 45 trim turbo. And, the car was running pig rich over 4K, but I couldn't pull enough fuel out. It's a great solution to running racegas.

The new hot parts look realy good.I just wonder if they got the intercooler fitment issues resolved or if you still have to fab up mounts to make it work and if the a/c line clears with the new set up.

I went to livernois's site and looks like they don't have this new kit on their site yet or something, at least everything looks the same as of a few weeks ago, pricing included.
