While Charles' plenum will be badass, it is geared toward serious, big turbo builds turning very high rpm. It also moves the TB to the front and will require a good bit of custom work to integrate.

My car doesn't fall on its face at all, all the way to 7200rpm (and thats on stock cams/springs)

On my build, I'm considering running a wire from the battery ground to a distribution block under the dash, and grounding the ECU, Haltech, etc. there.

I know I run 30psi on 110gas.
SP runs 38psi to get the 1248rwhp

not sure what Hal is running on the drag car or on his street car.

As much as the little T25s will take. Probably around 18lbs. Have been running 14-15 for the last 2 years.

Brian change your sig, you neither have spark blow-out nor a busted 3rd gear anymore

The APS turbos (GT2860/71 hybrid?) are out of efficiency much past 21 psi.

We'll do plenty of comparisons on boost alone (at all different boost levels), then with meth to see how much power we can make. Perhaps test Meth/water mix vs 100% methanol too.
