Interesting that you only gained 9 lb/ft of TQ!
I would have expected a little more than that as timing was added
Really depends.. If boost level remained the same, Meth is not going to make a huge difference. Get the blower up to 10-10.5 PSI and he"ll see better numbers. Keep in mind, Meth does not add HP it allows you to run higher boost levels as it avoids detonation. It also helps clean the valves on the DI engine.
He needs to uncork the S/C if possible. If he is not running a blower that has a restrictor plate, he'll need a smaller pulley on the crank to raise boost.
No....when we do a cam swap on them we are running the larger 35% bigger fuel lobe, plus it has meth but no, it does not have fuel issues.
Anthony or Doug...When you do a cam with the bigger fuel lobe and run 10 psi do you actually "NEED" meth or does the increased lobe get the added fuel needed?

I use the Meth for cooling and octane for most builds. The car should be able to carry itself on fuel alone if it had to. That being said they do need to be tuned to make sure the car will not have any damage in case the meth system fails.

I wondered this myself. Say you upgrade to the Z06 mechanical fuel pump with a last cap, that would jump your fuel delivery up by about 35-40%, do you still need the meth or can you get enough octane out of 93. Several tuners have said the car runs our of fuel at 600 HP but if you added more fuel delivery and no meth can you get to 700HP on 93 pump? Or do you need the meth for the octane no matter what your fuel delivery is..?
I'm betting the meth is a nice to have for insurance at 10psi but with a cam or z06 Pump the fuel needed probably is there.
I'm ready to do 10psi. I have a blower cam and meth..but still running 7 psi.
Anthony can I bring it to you? Will you guys remove the restrictor and tweak the tune for me?
