Stock block = stock headgasket, heads, cams, rods, headstuds, etc… Like stock? 🙂 I am on of the first cars in the world with Snow Performance Stage III kit. I did quite a bit of QA testing for them. ---

What’s wrong with it? Does it spray properly? Or is a matter of tuning? ---

nope…didnt even get far enough to drilling/tapping my intake manifold to mount everything… I cant get the pump to operate properly…I have this kit… [http://www.snowperformance.net/product.php?pk=39](http://www.snowperformance.net/product.php?pk=39) Im having trouble making the pump engage when my rpms increase and shut off when they decrease…It either stays on, and wont shut off unless I turn down the start voltage, or it wont turn on at all if i keep the start voltage down and revv up the car…it reads off my MAF mghz. ---

Would it work better on the TPS? or even better would be to run it from the MAP sensor. ---

Mine works off a boost source. Not TPS based. ---

Boost based seems like the way to go. If you could set it to come on when ever your over x psi that would be sweet. ---

There’s a new kit that’s an upgrade to your kit. It has very nice functionality including an upgraded spray algorithm. There are parts common to both kits. You might want to consider it. ---

I’d rather keep it plain and simple…run the Hobbs switch to my pump and call it a day…less things to hook up and less mechanical failure in the future. ---
