Going to see their response, thank you for yours.

Im at 15 psi right now without methanol. I would not push it any more. I just ordered new drive shafts. The stock ones are no longer good. When I tell you it is crazy fast I raced a new 2016 V8 mustang with full exhaust and I stayed with him. He could not pull away from me

I am installing chrome moly axles, 4.56's, rear true trac and Adam 1310's next week.

The methanol injection is 70% methanol 30% distilled water to give an octane boost and cooling effect. Going to push it to the limit here.

I hope the Mustang owner is saying that I pulled on him when I'm done.

Just going to run the stock wheels for now, still sorting out my tire width.

Which water-methanol injection (WMI) kit are you running? Are you doing a stage 1 before the throttle body, or progressive system?

He's not using methanol at all

This is the kit I'm going to be using, it is a linear progression system that you set to come on at a specific boost level and you set it for your max boost, the computer does the rest :

Right now now everything is working amazing the 93 octane and the tune is amazing. I have not seen anyone else out here push 14-15 psi. I'm about to do some major suspension upgrades so at this time I'm all done with the engine.

I lowered my Jeep and am taking a completely different approach to the build. I've had lifted and big tire Jeeps, my GF has a Rubicon on 35's and if I ever change my mind I can redo my ideas pretty quickly.

I wanted a Corvette or even a Hellcat, but I live in Canada and we have a five month window for driving cars like that. I also work for a living so honestly it would cut down my "days of use" to about 60 a year. Not worth it to me.

So I'm building what I believe will be one of the fastest pentastar powered JK's around. My goal is to be as close to 600hp (crank) that I can be. Summer tires cruiser and blast around like I would a muscle car and slap winter tires on and go another seven months.

This stuff is hard to wrap most people's heads around, but if I lived in Florida I'd just own both a lifted Jeep and a 700hp street car LOL.
