I may have to up the dial on the pump booster.

The nitrous system fuel side might turn out to be a useful tool in determining how much I need to increase the orifice size of the constant flow nozzles. Before I think about changing the nozzle sizes, I need to work up to the max boost level for this engine. The way the engine is responding to the present boost levels as compared to the last engine configuration, it's looking like 32 will be a real target.
Alcohol likes compression. If you're low on your static CR, you need to plan on using a lot of boost to make up for it. The problem that fights you with that is you're having to heat the intake charge more with the higher boost. A give and take situation.
