Pure 900 potential and boost
Would like to get a general idea on what people are able to run in terms of boost levels on Pure 900 setup….assuming you have a good tune…
- how much boost on pump gas?
- how much on 100 octane+/ race gas?
- at what boost levels do you need water/meth to keep IATs down to a safe level?
- how much additional boost on tap if you upgraded the fuel system?
…at what point are the turbos being pushed too much and jeopardize the reliability of the turbo/engine/trans?

At that level, did you upgrade the fuel pumps? Running race gas or pump gas with the meth system? Any pics of the meth’s systeam installed you can share?

Curious to what your 60-130 time was with your setup.

Can't see the pic very well. Is the tank in the trunk or installed under the hood?
