go no intercooler, turbo to intake, your freezing it out with alky anyway, might sound dumb at first.

totally agree, water injection - let the latent heat of vaporization property take care of the cooling

They didn't have time to do any tuning for today. I have schedule an appointment for this coming saturday. Hey slowcar what do you think about the Perrin meth injection kit with the failsafe? From looking at the specs of it, that kit seem very similar to the Aquamist kits. They use the same pump but different interface set up for the failsafe. Just want your info on the two kit if you can please.

Thank you.

The perrin/aquamist system is pretty much a plug and play system; add a water tank, connect a few wires and you're set to boost

The other aquamist system, the recently introduced HFS-5. Due to the bigger pump used, will be able to support more aggressive tuning or bigger turbo systems. It also has the capability of being able to be driven by a aftermarket ECU - you can create your own injection map.

Either way, you are looking at the safest and the best put together system in the WAI industry.

Abner,

I think that in page two you had a few responses from people that already tested bigger IC and went back to stock. Keep the stocker IC and just inject plenty of methanol.

No. Don't do it Abner. Most of the European and Japanese industry truly made standard the usage of intercoolers from 1986 and on.

Even with a ****y small intercooler the benefits of reliability and performance are worth. Running a turbo car without any kind of intercooler is now days absolutely unconcibeable/prohibited.

You would not cool the air fast enough with your methanol to make it decently and safely cool. Remember the principle of the Air condition units, you need the heat expansion, an intercooler is absolutely critical specially with the amount of hot air and boost you will be putting at 26psi.


I work with targeting pods at work, even the targeting pods which are installed in jets that travel anywhere from 600-1800mph requires some heat exchangers (intercoolers) to cool down various components.


Abner, No. That is out of the question.

Carlos

Since you actually seem serious about deleting the FMIC, I decided to dig out that old dyno testing thread from Dave Buschur where he deleted the FMIC and lost a bunch of power. He wasn't shooting as much meth as you are, but the loss was quite dramatic. I just posted a link in the other thread.

the larger portion of your gains where likely the addition of a test pipe.
