Spray it till it blows...Keep your procharger setup and get the rest to make it work. Then once you blow the shortblock down the line, you can replace pistons and rods with new bearings. And there you go... Slap a procharger on it and play with 650-750rwhp.

Spray is better setup in my opinion,, specially when this is ur daily drive this thing "more streetable"
u can go NA all the time and when u need the power just spray it.
and for sure its so much cheaper

BTW u didnt mention is it M6 or A4 ??!

Not that long.. In my 1 year of spraying and what I have noticed, 3 - 4 1/4 mile runs till you start get in the range where your bottle heater wont heat it up anymore to the right pressure. If you got 3-4lbs left in the bottle, its pretty much useless and time to refill.

if you spray 150 not long . i ran my buddie 0-140 2 time's at a 100 shot and spent a 10lb bottle 50 buck's

it will get spendy if you use it all the time. and trust me you will.

it is a pay me now or pay me later thing.

pay for the F/I now or past that cost later with bottle refill's

if you use it alot. but once you feel the power you will love it and always want it

or at least for me.

you can have a ton of fun with a 75 shot on the street. but once you bump it up it will go empty fast.

I love the juice

Yea, this guy knows what he is talking about.. I can remember the 1st few times when I got it all hooked up, I had to drive ~15 miles to get it refillled. And I **** you not, by the time I go back home, it was freakin empty.

IMO, if you got the money do the FI all the way!
