    Can you describe the nozzle sizes.....

    The nozzles above are rated at 100 psi. To get flow rates at other pressures, use the below--- new flow rate = (Square root (new pressure / rated pressure)) x rated flow rate So, for a nozzle rated at 10 gph @ 100 psi but actually being used at 170 psi--- new flow rate = (square root...

    Alky Pressure/Volume Test

    7:1 A/F!?!?!? There must have been a puddle under your exhaust tip :D

    Alky Pressure/Volume Test

    Mine is failry loose. Its a stock actuator off of a non intercooled Turbo Dodge (which ran 7-8 psi boost)! I have it set not so that min boost is about 10-11 psi. Ive got it tightened up a bit, bit its still a tough balance between actuator travel and tension. A better actuator would...

    dyno with meth injection

    Ill respond :D Within 2 seconds of the video starting, I knew it was going to be bad @ss. The guy sitting in the trunk gave it away :D

    Which Alky Kit To Buy

    My Shurflow doesnt sound anything like that. Im not sure why, but Ive never heard sounds like that! Maybe running the pump at a higher pressure changes things?

    Alky Pressure/Volume Test

    If you saw how fast this SC6152S goes from 8-10 psi to 30 psi it might explain why the alky pressure rises so fast. Honestly, the boost needle jumps that range so quickly that its like a switch was flicked. The controls were set for an 8-9 psi turn on, the initial was set conservatively and...

    Tuning observations

    Well, I dont have a Buick (mines 2.2L Dodge). So, as to the specifics of nozzle location I cant comment on the Buicks. But, on my Dodge I have both nozzles installed within a few inches of each other in an inlet pipe before the TB. The way the nozzles are plumbed is pretty simple. At...

    Tuning observations

    Yeah.....the fact that methanol is about 50% oxygen comes to mind :D

    Tuning observations

    Not sure on Julios car...but I know mine does run more methanol than gasoline (by mass) when under boost with the dual nozzles. I think there will come a point thought where one is going to reach a "wall" and more methanol isnt practical. It takes twice as much methanol as gasoline to...

    Tuning observations

    WOOT WOOT! Dual nozzle (M10 and M15) and 170 psi injection pressure = 11.8-12.0 A/F. Perfect!

    Dodged a bullet.....Always push the test button ...thats what it's there for.

    Those dang Hondas always break the rules :D Ill bet on my Dodge Id be lucky to get within 75 hp of that with the same turbo :( I also dont run lots of timing either so that doesnt help. At 500 whp, the car is only getting 12 degrees total advance.

    I just went to forcedperformance.com and it looks like their FP58 is the same as what I have on my car with the exception of the turbine housing (as mine is a 0.63 a/r and theirs is a 0.49 a/r). Its funny.......so many names for the same dang turbos!

    Dodged a bullet.....Always push the test button ...thats what it's there for.

    I am by no means an expert. But, they are pretty easy to get the hang of if you use a basic assumption. (This assumption, which is 10 hp per lb/min of rated flow, gives you an idea of the max power a given wheel will support, give or take. And, even if the 10 hp/lb/min assumption isnt 100%...

    nitrous and pac together

    AHH OK...thought you were talking about the alky. The nitrous kit is just a wet kit I pieced together. A "kit" is really quite simple, so one can save alot of $ just finding good deals on the components. The big savings is on the bottle....just get a CO2 bottle and you save alot of $ for...

    nitrous and pac together

    It is Razors alkycontrol.com progressive kit with dual nozzles (one M10 and one M15). Works like a champ!

    Dodged a bullet.....Always push the test button ...thats what it's there for.

    OK.....so must be this compressor? This map looks similar to a TO4E 50 trim wheel, yet seems to be able to make more power than the map would suggest.

    nitrous and pac together

    Yeah...with the small shots, it hardly matters at all. I was running what was theoretically a 30 hp nitrous jet, but the bottle pressure was only about 750 psi. The boosted run was 479 whp then it jumped to 500 whp with the nitrous added (and all else the same). When we made the first run...

    That FP3052 looks sweet! http://linux.forcedperformance.net/merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=FP&Product_Code=NTDSMFP3052&Category_Code=DSM-Turbo What is the actual compressor used in it?
