ok so im getting the aquamist installed and tuned by Sean Ivey and his mechanical on the 14th of sept. i wanted to know if there is anything special i have to do b4 this.

here are my mods.

do i need NGK BR8ES plugs?

and when mixing the water and the meth, is there anything i need to know? anything special? i wanted to run 66% meth 33% water. do i simply just do 66% of 6 liters and add that to 33% water?

what size nozzle? the kit comes with .08 .09 1.0mm nozzles.

 

I can only add to use distilled water.

 

what?

 

tap water leaves behind "residual" when it dries, which might crust around the jet orifice and reduce the aperture.

distilled water dries leaving nothing behind was what he was refering to

 

i realize this. no offense but that didnt answer any of my questions.

also i was thinking that the stock uicp has to be drilled and taped, but is the wall thick enough?

 

I'm presently running a 60% methanol/40% distilled water concentration on my Aquamist 2D system. I mixed 5 gallons of methanol and 4 gallons of distilled water. As for nozzle choice, what Aquamist system are you running?

 

i have the HFS-1

also what about the UICP? is the wall thick enough to tap?

 

The stock UICP is actually pretty beefy in thickness. Here's a link to my install on the Aquamist forums. Scroll down and you'll find a pic of my nozzle mounted in the UICP: http://www.aquamist.co.uk/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=654

As for the nozzle, I would run at least a 1mm nozzle since you have a larger percentage of methanol to water. I'm currently running twin .8mm nozzles on my set up. SlowCar is running twin 1mm nozzles, that's probably even the better way to go with your Aquamist/Shureflow pump.

 

Very nice job very very clean

 

ok so i wont have any problems taping the uicp? and what about my spark plugs? should i put some NGK BR8ES in there and gap them smaller? like .024"-.026?

 

Thats 55.56% Meth

 

Yeah, there should be no problem tapping the UICP, just use the correct tap recommended by Richard and make sure you use Locktite Red along with your Aquamist brass fiitings. You want make sure they are secure and tight and that there are no leaks under boost.

As for spark plugs, I'm using Denso IW-22's (stock heat range replacement) gapped at 026 with no problems. I tried the colder IW-24's and was getting some high RPM spark blow out with the gap at 026. I want to get an ignition upgrade of some sort and run the colder plugs without having to reduce the spark plug gap.

 

Lol, I knew someone would come out and get it down to the last percentage. O.K I'm running a 55.56% ratio .

 

Thanks.

this is what i found for the tap and drill sizes. richard can u confirm?
