Nice pick up...Awesome build and great info.
Methonal injection is insanely cheap. And there is zero maintenance. You can run washer fluid which is 2 bucks. U have it tuned so it sprays only at a certain psi. U can tune it through kpro in the nitros settings. Sorry Def gona have to disagree on the above statements about Meth. Me, differentk, and 04ep3hatch ran meth on our jrsc and im sure if they see this thread they will vouch its one of the better / cost effective mods for a jrsc. Go on crsx to get more info on meth on jrsc , unfortunately besides me Dan, and differentk I don't know anyone who ran meth on a jrsc, on this site. But from my experiences , best mod i did for my jrsc... Differentk is well over 300whp on his k24a2 with meth.

Damn 300 whp is fucken cool. Would i be able to hit 220whp with just kpro i/rh/e with my k24a2?
Really? Youve never heard anyone have an issue with clogged jetting? Pump failure? Wiring issues? And you cant disagree with the maintenance, because adding fluid is maintenance. Its something you have to do to maintain the system for proper use...
Im not saying meth isnt good, or a viable way to setup an SC'd k24... im saying i dont feel it is the BEST way to set up a 300whp JRSC'd k24. The greatest thing about the JRSC is it can be virtually maintenance free. Aside from changing the fluid (which you would have to do less often if the charger was spun at a lower RPM), and the belt (which would need to be done anyways)... its plug and play. Why complicate it?
I'm sure there are. But did I personally have any of those issues ? Nope. And the people on here that run it also I know don't have those issues.... You can't run modified things and expect them to work 100% , that goes for any part... Filling it once every 3-4 months for maybe 2 dollars isn't something I would call "maintenance". People have more issues with belt slippage than maintaining a simple meth kit. There's no such thing as having a modded car and being maintenance free. A jrsc u still have to worry about charger oil, belt slippage, manifold leaks, vaccum leaks, high temps, different pulleys and crank pulleys to attain proper boost levels, and rebuilding the charger. Unless u plan to spend money on an aftercooler which is well over a grand and needs to be custom made or u find someone else selling one on crsx, ur best alternative is meth. Good luck finding another way of keeping ur temps down on that k24 spinning that blower

As you say you had no problems when you ran meth, i had none of the issues you stated people had with the JRSC. So maybe those JRSC issues are tuner/builder based... and not kit based?
The whole point of raising your compression is to avoid spinning the blower so high you need meth. Did you read everything thats been discussed?
Facts are: Higher compression will allow you to make the same power with less boost (less rpm)... WITHOUT meth or any expensive aftercooler kit. Again... KISS.
So u want someone to rip apart there bottom end and replace pistons rods etc etc, all the down time and money that's gona cost. Not to mention if OP even knows how to do all this or he would need a shop to do. Instead of buying a simple meth kit that costs at the most maybe 120? to reach the same result of 300whp? That makes total sense... Wheres differentk when u need em.
I've read everything discussed. Changing ur pistons and ripping apart ur bottom end is a complete waste of time and money when ur GOAL is ONLY 300whp

OK... this apparently got blown (get it) outta proportion.
No one is saying your way is right and mine is wrong... but apparently some have worse luck with certain setups than others.
For you, you would rather pay someone to do the work for you (thats not bad, its a fact). If youre afraid to swap pistons yourself (lack of build knowledge/expense)... dont press that on someone else as a reason to follow a certain path.
Me? Gimme the damn tools/parts and let me do the work. I offer my experiences as viable options, not doctrine, for the enthusiast willing to get dirty. My bad...
Did i say anything negative about your posts, or say " man where is so and so to back me up". No. i stated fact... and for some reason you got a little butt hurt. My bad... again...
Chill Dave... damn.
Not to mention, no one has to "rip apart the block" to swap pistons... its very easy for the mechanically inclined with reasonable tools...
I'm not butt hurt at all. Can I do work myself? Yes I can ( i used to be a kid on a high school budget too like everyone else). Do i chose to work on my car? For the most part no. Can I do technical things like take my motor apart? Def not. I chose that route. I am greatful to be close freinds with my speed shop and they have always steered me in the right direction. My builds always come out clean / legit and i have the numbers and kills to prove it. Why u bring up my mechanical expertise, is beyond me, it has absolutely nothing to do with what is being discussed. I give my advise on personal experience on what has worked for me, what has been done to my car, and whay i feel is the best option for members cost wise and result wise. I ran a jrsc meth injection . At one point on eph I made the most power on a jrsc a3 (255whp) untill Dan made 272 whp also on meth. Do I think ur advise here is wrong? No I dont. But it seems the most illogical way for the goals we are discussing . I do not wish to argue with u on someone else's thread build. I gave my advise and said my points.
To the Op and gtec, here is a thread from crsx, u will find detail info on meth, plus install guides, plus dyno sheets to show u its effectiveness, if u are considering this route
