I feel like a DA, thanks bro.

I retract that question then shiv, but it still makes me wonder though. Do forge DVs snap right into the vishnu CP? And do you guys plan on making a CP with a place for a BOV?

Try getting a 122whp increase for $2k on any other platform...

Seriously, this is stupid cheap when it comes to simplicity, ease of install/removal, and $/whp

NP,...just trying to help (not calling you out).

BTW he also said somewhere else that the stock DV or Forge DV would work and that he does not plan to support BOV at the moment, but maybe in the future. I wouldn't hold my breath for it if I were you.

Your best bet is probably (like mine since I JUST got the ER CP) is to modify your current ER CP and allow placement for the pressure switch. The issue I have in looking at my engine bay is if there is enough room for the Methanol kit's pump next to the power steering. We may have to move the power steering a bit to make more room since the ER CP seems to come up high and take quite a bend and ends up taking some of that space up. I would like to know how big the pump is before i decide that. Currently I can only fit my average sized fist in the spot where the pump should go. I am researching the dimensions of the pump in the mean time.

Yeah,..in case you didnt know that is how the ER CP is also. Silicone couplers and clamps. He has a BOV so it should not matter to him unless he decides to change to DV.

This is just rude. Vishnu has been working very hard to produce a product that they are proud of. What if you were to develop something that you were proud of and some one said something this inconsiderate about your exceptionally hard work... it is just uncalled for. If you don't want the product don't buy it. Your choice. It is just rude to insult people like this.

By the way, there are a lot of black pipes in the engine bay... not sure what is ugly about it. Shiv, do you off these in Pink for Kylu?

What is this ? I haven't heard that about Meth before. How premature - like a few years?

I think the cp looks very nice, def sexy with some shiney DV's, even though the meth kit I think is overpriced, the CP looks sexy imo

I think he was mistaken with octane boosters or leaded race fuels causing premature cat failures. As far as I know, methanol combustion results in co2 and h2o, which won't affect a cat. However, if there are detergents added to the mix you're using that could cause problems. I think you'd have more potential for cat poisoning with bad pump gas. HTH

Wow I'm a JB4 user but this kit is great. Its all you need! Could get an inter-cooler if you got money to burn but prob wouldn't benefit much because you got meth for those low IATs.

I'd go with catless DPs.
