Message	But that was at about 40 degrees. I'm sure the colder intake charge warded off any detonation. The temperature was the reason I hit 17psi in the 1st place (colder = denser air, everyone knows that =P). In ~70 degree weather, I hit about 15psi, no detonation. Stupid boost jets, I guess I'll be getting a boost controller soon, so I don't have 'variable weather related' boost. I've got some 555 injectors on order, just waiting for a call about them. Then I'll hit the track at, oh, let's say 19psi. :) Kez "Pulled the blower fan down from behind the glovebox and there was a mouse nest inside the cage fan - mom and 6 babies. Mom was dead and the reason for the smell - petrifying fast - but the babies were hanging on. At least until I fed them to the cats." [ZXtaZTT - June 19, 2002]
