smart 4.2 and tst stack??

I have a smarty 4.2 right now and came across a real cheap tst cr 49 with the adjustable rail pressure and everything What settings should I run the tst on I usually leave my smarty on 9 all the time with no problems. I do have an arsen kit on there now that's not in my sig.

You are probably not going to see much over 2/0-3/0. Do not use any of the torque settings, that only help to drain the rail and smarty is enough down low anyway. You will have to have a modded cp3 to keep from draining the rail.

More than that, I see you do not have a turbo upgrade. You will need that as well.

Watch your rail pressure and egts closely and watch results. If one or the other gets out of whack, you have gone too far and need to turn it down.

Try smarty on sw 7 and tst on 2/0 standard to start.

You'll know when you drain the rail, then dial it back... the arson kit will keep you ok for now... turbo first.

You could look through the classifieds for now and pick up something used for a decent price... just don't get too big a turbo. Stay around the range of s300 variants with a 62mm inducer... if you could find a garrett gt37 that would be the hot setup.
