So for you guys saying 1000whp is too much for the street then, you would say nitrous would probably be the best way to go? So I have the extra juice for the track and stick with my useable 840whp for the street? Im seeing my tuner on sunday to talk things over and we’ll see if we can fit a bottle anywhere.

That's probably the most economical way. I don't think you'd need it that often. It will also cool intake charge on hot days. Only issue is maintenance of keeping bottle full, at the right pressure and solenoid maintenance every now and then

If you go that route, the plate kit may not fit depending on the blowers placement. With my NX plate installed it pushes the throttle body too far forward and hits the pulley. But this is on a Procharger

Doesn't look like an issue on my ECS set up. Pulley is out of the way of the intake. Did you end up making yours work though? What was your workaround?

And hello Tony! Yes I've been on the forum a long time. Just have a different screen name than my IG haha.
No when I maxed out the 1500 I ran e50. When I went to the 2200x I also added a low side and had to only run c16 if I was going to go beat on it. I had a 93 tune and a c16 tune. When I went to the 2200x it made a touch over 1100. Then I went to port injection and could run full e85 and made the same power with less boost.

Well that's good. I just pulled it off for now. I'm still on the stock motor anyway so I'll just have to figure something out down the road.
