get one of those intercooler sprayers and freeze your intercooler charge or lightly spray the intake. i lost one of those motors with a similar setup as yours with no nitrous

I'd look at your fuel first before spraying anything. Turn up the boost if you're worried about making more power out of this thing.

I know I could turn the boost up...but I'm interested in spraying it along with boost....and I wanted to install a discreet setup so a few of my friends that know my setup will get a lil surprise at the track

It held 20psi for 6months huh? That might not be a bad idea

Lasting "Only 6 months" is not a good idea. My god people, Engine components are getting harder to find everyday.

Good luck, but better tuning and boost will help you on the street more than just "sprayin" it.

Sorry. I guess I have no sense of humor or understanding when people take an engine just to "blow it up", when a needy person may need such an engine to save themselves some headache as they try and go to work. Maybe I'm just too conservative now, but I never understood wasting components just to do so.
