thanks, im just running 6psi for now, I'm planning on a FLT lvl 5 and 3000 stall hopefully by summer then a built 6.0 and run 12psi. Hard to sink a ton of money into it while going to school full time, its my daily driver as well and the round trip to school is about 60miles a day. No numbers yet. I've got a devils own methanol injection kit on its way. I'll tell you one thing it sounds amazing, i've seen lots of video's but they just dont do it justice.

I pieced together the kit and a friend of mine did the welding, took a day and a half to install. The whole kit is tig welded stainless, I think it turned out amazing. I will try and get some videos soon a friend of mine has an HD video camera so we'll take some videos on the next sunny day. The weather has been crap here lately.

I like how you made the wastegate dump look like another exhaust. I bet that screams when you're in full boost

ya it sounds wicked, its not super loud in the truck because it exits out the side but if your standing(or driving) next to the truck and the wastegate opens your in for a suprise
