Thanks Charlie!

Did you guys see the dyno thread on 1,218 hp/2000+ ft-lbs? (dyno only reads up to 2,000 ft-lbs)

Looks like 1,000 hp (Dynojet) has been confirmed (witnessed by many). Thread gets worst than some tranny wars, but interesting!
Link here!

Had an interesting surprise this morning coming to class. Had the cruise set at 70 and was going up hill when all of a sudden the engine changed tones and started accelerating and boost was climbing rapidly. I started scanning stuff and my eyes rested on my water/meth light. It was on. I reached for the switch and it fell off in my hand. Apparently after my playing around with it yesterday it broke and I thought I had turned it off. One more thing to add to the list of stuff to get fixed before the dyno. Got the steering box, center the steering wheel up some more, checking alignment, fix the switch, make sure the turbo is still working (heard some ticking from it the other day I didn't like).

Isn't your system activated through a boost switch?

Yes and no. It's armed by a master switch in the cab but doesn't start spraying until it reaches a certain boost level. Maintaining 70mph up this hill requires about 20psi of boost.
