water methanol injection?
hey i have a tony wildman custome tune and a banks shift kit and i want to do water methanal. so im wondering if its worth doing and if its a good mod to do?:humm:
|
hey guys still wondering if water methanal injection is a good idea or not?
---AutoMerged DoublePost--- my biggest concern with doing this is haveing my chip and the water methanal injection may be to much power for my tranny. i have the shift kit but i dont know if thats enough??? |
It's a great way to drop EGT's. I don't know about Ford trannies. Putting methanol into the water is close to the same as injecting more fuel, only it's far more likely to blow a headgasket, especially if your timing is advanced.
Does your box advance timing? Water alone is not likely to hurt anything at any rate, and gives a good power boost and EGT reduction. |
yeah my chip does advance timeing alittle. but the water methanal is half water half methanal so i dont know what i should do.
|
You can always water it down.
|
how much boost will it give me if i water it down though?
|
That's a hard thing to say. With a water/methanol system you can run anything from staight water to up to 50/50 water/methanol. I run washer fluid. It's about 35-40% methanol. If I want to go full 50/50 I add a bottle of Heet in the yellow bottle to every gallon on washer fluid. I spool up a lot faster just with water. I installed mine to 1. Keep my EGTs down 2. For the mileage 3. For the power. And with the tranny... I wouldn't think the extra power will torch it that fast.

alright thanks man. i just bought stage one injectors for my truck so i may do water injection to drop my egts alittle just to keep them safe
|
I run it on my truck and like it so far but did have a problem with the system I bougth from cooling mist and their customer service sucks so I reccomend a snow performance system
|
alright thanks man. im just hoping putting this in with my injectos and my TW chip wont blow my tranny to shreds
|
get ahold of tw and have him make you some tunes for water meth.. he will retard the timing and have him tune for bigger inj.

Hey how is that shift kit? Was it hard to instal? I wanna get one soon cuz im gunna go crazy with mods on my 03.:tttt:
Banks does not sell a "shift kit"... They sell a junk box the boosts the line pressures in the tranny. All that can be done with a well tuned chip (Tony should have ajusted the pressures anyway) Your better off going with a BTS or JohnWoods Valve body, you will get true improvement in your drivablity. As far as water/meth... Keep it under 40% and you will be fine. I have over 120k running water with no issues. |

If you are having issues with cooling mist please e-mail David at info@coolingmist.com I have been running and working with them for years now, you are one of the first I have ever heard say that. |
