ask STSsilverado about meth, his ran out on high boost and blew his baby up, im just suggesting to be careful about keeping your meth full, most people use the washer fluid cuz it has a low warning light. just sum info mon -e -pit. meth is an awesome tool for FI applications, and an FMIC is worry free.

Thanks. I just purchased the kit and intercooler. I will get the meth injction later. How much boost can I run on stock internals, and do I need new injectors right away?

On stock internals I think maybe around 8 psi. Of course you could run higher boost but eventually the motor gonna break unless you get forged internals. As for fuel injectors, you don't need them right away if you're staying at 5 psi. If you're planning on running more boost, then you'll to upgrade them.

I would not go over 5 psi without injectors and fuel pump.

I have a set of 8.1 31lb truck injectors that I will let go for $150.00 shipped if you are interested. They should allow you to get to 10lbs easily over the stock 24lbs ones and they will drop right in....

people have gone 15+ on stock internals. Your tune needs to be dead nuts on though. You also need adequate fueling. I wouldnt go that high without 60lb injectors and meth.

Probably, but the motor won't last as long though.

definitley upgrade the pump and injectors!!!!even on low boost, better safe than sorry, and get a Wideband gauge along with some type of gauge/scanner so to keep track of your timing and Knock retard.

31s will not supply enough fuel for 10 psi. My old 33s were maxed out at 8 psi.

What do the duty cycles look like at the standard 6psi on the stock 24s then?
