Funny, I never had a problem with the heat on my crew cab. That truck ran 13.1 @ 105 without even thinking about it.

Compressed air creates heat, its simple physics.

I don't really understand the issue here. Meth ate up the coating and made the blower less efficient. Meth could also lead to failure of the above mentioned sealed bearings. This is just par for the course. Everything we do to these trucks makes them less efficient and more prone to failure. It’s part of the game. Every time I start my truck it wears on the starter but, that doesn’t mean I’m going to quit starting my truck.
If that 40 extra hp is worth a blower rebuild after a few years then do it, if not don’t. I run meth on my 112 on my GTO and will probably run meth on the Hoe when I get the 2300 dialed in. One of them may fail eventually, by then the TVS3300 should be out.

BC, PM me on the Whipple for my boat. I won't use meth on that.

I have not had a chance to do anything with my truck. Remodeling my bathrooms at the moment. When that's done I will **** with the truck more and if I cant fix it I will be going back to stock and shipping parts all over the ******* USA. I doubt I will see anything wrong with my 2300 since it only has driven a couple thousand miles. I have put maybe 7 gallons of meth thru it.
