Huge thanks to Nick at Killer B Motorsport (www.killerbmot...) for answering my questions and also getting the new hardware out for the header.

    As most of you know.......torque is really what kills these motors and we're obviously at the very limits of the stock block. We made a healthy 444 whp and 390 wtq with E60 and methanol injection.
    Plan is to do a full motor build with Outfront V3 Closed Shortblock, CP Pistons, CP Rods, Headgames Pocket Port Heads, and upgraded 1/2" ARP Headstuds and ASSEMBLE IT MYSELF with the help of a few local engine building friends.
    Stay tuned for more WRX content as we go really into the deep end! Thank you for all the messages and kind words.....your support means a lot!!

    Hey Eddie, good info about the new meth nozzle. I also have aem kit and I bought the failsafe kit too. Unfortunately the flowmeter doesn't work with 100% methanol so I will try to adapt another flowmeter brand (aquamist). I think it's very important to be able to detect leaks or plugs and not just meth pump or controller malfunction.

    • @eddiestsla
      @eddiestsla  3 года назад

      Yeah I heard that about the AEM failsafe so I never went that route......check out my other video on failsafe that I made using a relay

    • @RickChichar
      @RickChichar 3 года назад +1

      @@eddiestsla of course I checked it!! I did my failsafe using your video but with a modification, I wired a relay to a 12v to 5v converter so that 0/5 v signal is wired to tgv. Ron configured a flex fuel map to change between meth off and meth on maps so I can switch maps on the fly. Of course this set up doesn't work with e85 but I don't have e85 where I live so I can use only meth

    I forgot to ask... any particular reason to go with socal turbo and not with FP Blue?

    • @eddiestsla
      @eddiestsla  3 года назад

      Yeah sure.....I went with the Socal V3 because I picked up a used core for $100 so the value just made sense over the FP Blue......you can see mine is still a budget friendly setup. If I was spending the money and cost wasn't a concern, I would have actually gone with the Killer B Fury Twin Scroll Turbo Kit

Probably 60 of that on Ron’s tune. I have 120k on the 06. Once the engine goes I will need to pay for a new access port. Only had Ron tune it open source when he would for fears my V1 ap could die.
