APS ST for 34,000 boosted mi. at around 12psi peak/9psi redline on stock block.

Had what I thought were a couple close scares with oil consumption and smoking: turned out to be non-turbo related. Added Water/EtOH injection because the summer blends are causing a sh*tload of detonation.

Otherwise, yeah, things are well.

39k on motor. about 10k with tnetics. 8.5psi. Looking at these guys with aps going over 400hp makes me wonder why the tnetics guys are so low. Too much torque?

APS 10k 10-12.5 PSI 460WHP (Water Injection saps power but provides safety)

My waste gate gets over powered... so I'm set @ 10psi... but I creep to 12.5 psi

This is an excellent thread. It's getting my hopes up for F/I. Seems like the APS TT and the Vortechs are the ones with the least problems ....

I replaced the Unichip with an Emanage Ultimate and have it control the WI setup. It has its own querks I haven't worked out... but at least I don't have to be an authorized dealer to play with it.

As far as oil... I run AMS 10/40

UPDATE....

After a weekend to GA, I now have about 31k on the turbos and am now putting down 481rwhp @ 9psi on the stock block. Pretty much maxing out my injectors but still running 11.0 AFR.

Us 25k+ F/I milage guys need to start a "club" thread of our own
