New dyno numbers 309whp 361ftlbs.!!!!!!

meth is a pain in the ass on a street car. been there done that, not on this car for me. you have 2 options with meth. run it all the time and have to constantly monitor the level, cuz if it runs out on you while you are running high boost and extra timing... you gonna have a problem ! or.....
have a seperate tune to use when you want to use the meth. that to me is the smarter option. the issue is having to to deal with swapping between 2 different tunes, depending on how you feel like driving. its a great mod, with great "bang for the buck" its just a pain in the ding ding to deal with.

I dont really agree with this statement. First off, you can get a stage 2 setup that runs off the voltage on your MAF. The only time its going to spray is how you set it. Generally, a 3V+ is when you want it 50%.. by 4.5V+ you are 100%. Youre not in constant boost anyhow, its mainly short spurts unless youre in a race and even that wont put a huge dent into the amount of fluid youre using. Common sense tells me if youre running high boost, youre going to be in tune with your stuff, including the meth tank level. For $20, you can add a level indicator to warn you of low fluid. With these piggy backs, you can switch tunes on the fly, so having a seperate meth tune is simple if youre that paranoid. Theres really no reason you cant get at least 2 gas tank full (450-600 Miles ) before having to refill the meth tank. Ive been running meth in my vehicles for well over 15 years without any complications or inconveniences.
 
i plan on it none the less. I see no reason why with tmic, downpipe, and meth kit at 20psi I will be pushing 350whp all day long.
 
How about some fuel system upgrades?? Do we know the limits of the stock fuel pump? What about injectors?? Then you get the limit on the Rods, which aren't forged.
 
protege garage topped the speed6 at 394 tq on stock fuel system, they running vta so they can get as much fuel as possible from the stock system, so thats probably the max since they cant seem to get more power at the moment, not enough fuel

well keep in mind a few things. we're not currently running vent to atmosphere on the car. we did so to test if indeed the car was incapable of adding more fuel. the car did richen up after we went VTA even at that power level so there is some evidence to state that if the fuel system is properly tuned there is room above what is considered 'maximum'. like you said, these numbers were on a mazdaspeed6. had they been on a mazdaspeed3 i'd think you'd see alot more power due to less powertrain parasitic loss. we haven't made any attempts to garner more power out of the car because the clutch is currently fried in it, replacing it is a 9 hour job and we've been backed up otherwise. the 394 lb ft of torque was done on a street tune no less, so once we put it on a dyno things could be interesting.
 
the stock clutch, if im mistaken correct me, but i believe its good for around 450 hp. dont shoot me if im wrong. i heard it somewhere...just remembering....maybe. lol.
