Good point Rowland! It's possible the screw has backed out.

You should definitely be seeing more than 30psi if everything is operational...

I'm so stupid.... The little plastic hose coming out of the head was partially broken. I pulled it off, cut off 1" and re-connected it. 42 psi, just like the TST R46 was showing. There, I'm a bone head....

Big Blue said same thing when he switched to TST! He also said TST pulled harder which would make sense if less smoke (better fuel burn).
I never played with an Edge Comp so....??

I have Tst pm 3, and I dont get any smoke at all. I know it is a good thing, but if I put let say RV275 injectors or something harsher, what kind amount of smoke I get before spool up,or do I get any at all?

Oh yes! Pre Boost...all bets are off and smoke is definately there!
Don't know about 275's but my Mach 4's will give all I ever wanted.

TST Comp will give even more smoke...pre-boost because it fuels earlier. 1.5 psi vs 3 psi...IIRC.

My truck still smokes at low boost but clears up better than the Edge Comp. Can a guy compare stage 2 jammers to mach 4's or not even close???

I have as much low boost smoke as anybody would want with DD3's, Smarty(#5) and a TST Competition on #3... but it pulls like a freight train.

Don't know Jammer #'s but I thought Jammer 5's were listed at 150 hp and dynoed a bit less... heard 130hp. May be wrong about that??
Mach 4's are honest 150 hp on my set up!
