There's not much that will help once the temp and DA get past a point. Way to many factors.....


Not much more you can do on a centri than 100% dual nozzle meth system. For most it works well

can tell you from experience even on a hot humid, meth may help a little, but not enough to tell a major difference.

Belts. Slipping, breaking, losing ribs. Spent over 2 years tweaking, upgrading, and messing with the system before I have a setup that doesn't have belt issues. Fix one, causes another. Think it is ok, belt only last 2-3k miles. Lots of tow trucks, lots of issues, and TONS of money later, it is finally good.

People pushing 6 rib setups/etc saying they don't slip, good luck. Put 10k miles on it and see what happens. As the belts stretch/wear, as tensioners wear, issues come up. I guess if you accept putting a fresh belt on often/ end keeping it all mainted perfectly, otherwise look at a system with either no belts (turbos) or a really good drive system (10-12 rib, ECS/Vortech/Etc kit).

When it gets hot out, I just up the boost to about 17. I can go as high as 25 since im tuned for it but no need, not even when it was 105deg a while back. I have tried 25 a couple times and its flat out scary.

Boost control with CO2 is nice, i can go from 6 to 25 with the push of a button.
