What is that hood doing?

Oh, nothing. :rolleyes:
Hood has no mesh because the hood dump for wastegate is temporary. A titanium one is being made to curve on an angle so we only want to cut the mesh once. That car made 500 to all 4 tires out of a stock bottom end 2.0L . I assembled the head and helped him with he whole car. Should make another 100-120 on race gas at tire. OH and it still has A/C
 
So the other night when I had the car out we were running them hard and I knew I had some belt slip as I was making like 15 psi sometimes 17 so last night I change the oil in the car and tighten the belt down some .

We have had beautiful 75 degree non humid days so today I take the car to work . Well on the way home is a turning point cuz this bitch saw 20psi of boost . I'm in shock myself . I have to call Kris tomorrow and see what he wants to do . I'm thinking the 3.12 upper pulley I have is going to have to go on for the pump gas stuff . And then my 2.95 can be a race gas deal . I'm thinking at 20psi on race gas this thing will make close to 800 . It made 740 on 17.5 psi with only 5 gal of ms109 mixed to pump gas .
 
..... just grab a water/meth kit, set it up so it activates at xx boost with the supplied hobbs switch or progressive controller. You can even run straight water to combat detonation without a retune.

A lot cheaper than a rebuild.

It's either getting that or like I said I have a bigger pulley to slown the blower down a bit . As soon as I saw it I was like woah . Afr was still totally safe and the weather last night was super cool . But definitely has to be addressed .
