Best application for TVS2300.. Meth or Nos?
Like the title states. Looking to gaining some more power to my vehicle. As of right now, Im around 505rwhp but with the hot texas weather it doesn't seem like it and with the competition stepping it up. I might as well too ha ha. So far I looking in the alky control system since it will help with my iat and Iv read that it works great with boost. Im also looking in the RDS spacer for the Maggie to help with the heat soak. I just found a cool product from RDS with the phenolic spacer but can also add the nitrous without going thru the blower, from which the nitrous guys I spoke said will give you more power. I would like to get some peoples opinion and see which route they would go with and get some pointers. IF you had a choice, which one would you go with. The meth? the nitrous with the phenolic spacer already built in? or the phenolic spacer and the nos going thru the throttle body? Also would I have to upgrade my injectors, currently have the 52lb injectors with the zl1 fuel pump and adm fpcm with 9 lbs boost

You and I seem to be on the same mission. I spoke to someone at N2O outlet yesterday. The tech I spoke with said the LS9 spacer plate you listed will not fit our setup. However, the RDS plate seems to be made specifically for the maggie supercharger. I already sent them a message regarding pricing and was planning to call them tomorrow. I did look at the N2O throttle body plate intake as well. I talked to a drag racer friend who said he liked the throttle intake because it would help cool the supercharger as well. I'm looking for the phenolic spacer plate for both performance and the aesthetic look. Good luck with everything!!! Would you be willing to tell me what price you got for the RDS plate?

I spoke with nitrous express and they said that I could mail them my maggie and they could make a nitrous spacer plate but looks like rds beat them to it.

Meth won't give you the power spray will..
Also if you tune meth for more power if your pump goes bad or your line gets clogged you're going to detonate like crazy... Happened to me in my V. In my 5th gen I have meth but I didn't tune it for power... Just make sure you have some failsafes incase the meth never makes it.

Thanks for the advice. I thought meth did give you more power. Iv seen countless videos before and after and saw great gains after the install. Not saying that you are wrong, since im still kinda new at this. So you added meth and didnt tune it?

Meth WILL give you power but no where near the power nitrous will give you. You're increasing your gas octane while running on pump. Just picture it like this. You put 93 in but a 50/50 meth will raise it to 100oct (there's an actual formula to determine the octane depending on the mix) so now you can boost more because you're using "better" fuel. This is how meth works in its simplest form... Also lowers iats and bunch of other stuff.. But you're not going to get away with 100-200whp with meth... You'll need spray for that.
