    Here we go again, MARCH GIVE AWAY!

    Im in !! Also cant wait to test my direct port methanol injection next week !! 40 GPH worth of nozzles !!

    Pushing the limit with AI

    Pushing the alky limits That is why i will be testing my direct port methanol injection system because i want to push the limits of the alky. My engine runs on propane with no intercooler and i need as much latent combustion cooling as possible. I will be running 6 * 5gph nozzles into...

    Twin pumps or 24v to surflow pump

    Yeah , the inlet fitting is the size of the outlet of the standard plastic washer bottle reservoir, that i bought off you rasor. 3/8' im pretty sure. My pump is mounted in the boot of the car and the pressure line is 1/2" solid stainless to the front. If my pump inlet hose is too small the only...

    Twin pumps or 24v to surflow pump

    I agree with what your saying, but i need the alcohol to cool my combsustion temps down. Which doesn't happen with LPG so i have to run more methanol. I dont have any other options at this point in time. I would like to make the system safer, and any ideas are welcome. My boost cutback to...

    Twin pumps or 24v to surflow pump

    Yes in a sense it is a fuel system patch up, but im doing it on my purpose as im trying to lower my combustion temps down, as my main fuel is gaseous. I have no other way or enricing it now apart from more methanol. The last time i ran it a few months ago. the nozzles were an equivalent of...

    Twin pumps or 24v to surflow pump

    Im running out of flow with my alky system. Im using 35 GPH worth of nozzle flow at the moment and i think i still need more as im still pinging and my intake temps are not that low ( about 80 'c in the plenum), manifold is not really cold to touch or icing after a run and my egt is fairly hight...

    Max alcohol flow potential from 100 psi surfelow pump?

    That is one beefy pump !! As u mentioned it flows a lot @ 250 psi !!! Just a mater of how compatible it is with methanol/water/ethanol. Does it have an overpressure switch like the sureflow? I beleive its a must with a solenoid- just need to modify it so it cuts out at 150 psi not 100 psi...

    Max alcohol flow potential from 100 psi surfelow pump?

    For some reason i can't open that PDF, but if its 1.5 gpm then its 90 GPH , is that @ 100 psi? if it is it flows 30 gph more than the sureflow. I prefer not to change or add pumps if possible if i can cheaply get more flow out of my current setup. Im thinking of increasing the -4 fuel line to...

    Max alcohol flow potential from 100 psi surfelow pump?

    I could run more pressure if the pump produced more flow- i'm already at full full 14 v, but if i over voltaged it to 18 or 20 v i know i could get more flow out of it. Im running the equivalent of 2 * m15 nozzles after the turbo and 2* m10 nozzles before the turbo at 20 psi boost. And it seems...

    Max alcohol flow potential from 100 psi surfelow pump?

    Is there anyone spraying anywhere near the 40-50 gph potential of the sureflow pumps? From my calculations that is the maximum potential of the pump and if its 100% methanol 40 gph is enough for 200 HP worth of alcohol. (at full pump voltage i just cant get to 100 psi with the nozzles i have...

    Electric Alcohol pressure gauge

    Gauge pulsing By looking at the animation on the raysnubber i'm assuming it shows the real pressure after the snubber is added, which is right in the middle of the low swing 80 psi and high pulsing point of 120 psi- ie. real system pressure =100 psi, do people agree with this in reality? the...

    Electric Alcohol pressure gauge

    Pulsing gauge I was wondering what is the actuall pressure that the system is spraying at? if the needle is pulsing from say 80-120 psi? Is it the min psi/max psi or average of the needle sweep? Would a gauge snubber help to show the true pressure injected ? Like this one here...

    Electric Alcohol pressure gauge

    Thats excatly how my gauge paulses, and i was wondering what is the actuall pressure that the sysetm is sparaying at? is the min/max or acaerage of the needle sweep? What a gauge snubber help to shwo the true pressure injected? Also i thought that would be a postive of the electrcal gauge as it...

    Electric Alcohol pressure gauge

    Even a good 150 alcohol compatible alcohol gauge would be useful. Other wise im going to install more nozzles to get the flow i want under 100 psi. But hopefully at minium settings/pressure it's not going to be injecting too much. other wise ill need a solenoid cutoff for some of the...

    Electric Alcohol pressure gauge

    Even a 200 psi one would be good , if not a suitable pressure transducer connected to a mutlimeter would give me what i want, but i cant seem to find one suitable for alcohol and 200 psi. Also does a fluid filled gauge make it much easier to read the fuel psi? I think it would but it it would...

    Electric Alcohol pressure gauge

    Does any one know of an affordable alcohol compatible 200-250 psi electric pressure gauge that can handle methanol? I dont want a mechanical gauge with 200 psi of alcohol in the cabin.

    Methanol and aluminium compatibility

    I have a question about materials compatiblity of methanol and aluminium as i believe methanol eats aluminum. Now i know when the engine is under boost it will mostly vaporise and suck in all the fuel before it has any time to corrode anything. But i was just wondering in certains situations...

    How much of cooling effect can I expect with alky?

    Bruce with you experience with Methanol injection with and without intercoolers. Whats is your opinion on intercoolers and methanol injection, if you are using a high % alcohol ,say 50% and above of the total fuel flow. Are intercoolers actualy required/beneficial when you are using this much...

    Individual Port injection of methanol???

    Exactly as said above, alcohol compatible fuel injectors are damn expensive!! I think that we don't need them anyway, as long as you control the flow of the return line with a stainless steel solenoid valve near the distribuition block into each cylinder, it will give you enough response time to...
