Probably need to back it down a touch. Still I would rather this than a cracked piston...

Hey Taylor, does Jeremy spray more meth than mine? Should I be worried that mine is going to pop the intake eventually?

True, I was just thinking it was more of a brittle plastic/to much boost, thing, then a back fire. Of course I'm not in the car either though.
