    An update on my Alkycontrol hot-air setup

    Howdy folks, some of ya'll might know who I am but most I don't think do. I'm a Mazda rotary Rx-7 guy that's been a customer of Julio's for about 4 years now. I purchased and installed my Alkycontrol setup back in July/August of 2006. I originally used a single M15 nozzle but went to a dual M10...

    Compressor bypass (blow-off) valve and alcohol injection

    Hey guys, somethin' that's been on my mind for a while is the plumbing issue with an alcohol-laded charge air that's being blown out via a blow off valve. I'm currently using a Turbo XS valve that vents in 6 or so different directions out into the engine bay but it's bothered me because I'm...

    Ported/Polished GN Throttle Body Inquiry

    Howdy guys, I'm looking for two guinea pigs for testing my ported & polished throttle bodies. I'd like to break into the GN/Turbo Regal market and I need two guys from here that'd be willing to allow me to modify theirs at a vast discount ($50). I need some feedback (be it positive, neutral, or...

    Nozzle placement and IAT sensor spacing

    Hey guys, I've got a question about whether or not there needs to be an (x) distance between alcohol injection nozzles and an IAT (intake air temperature) sensor. I'm curious as to whether or not there needs to be a measured amount of distance and time for the alcohol to flash and freeze the...

    A few Alkycontrol Vids

    Hey Julio and Turbobuick.com AI guys, I'm not sure if I ever posted these or not here. These are a few videos my g/f and I took one day during tuning about a year ago. Over in my car community (I'm a Mazda Rx-7 guy), not much of anyone had ever seen anything like what I was doing at the time...

    For those using the O2Simulator EGT 5V Adaptor

    This post stems from a call to Julio from earlier in the day. I was looking for the Voltage to Temperature conversion chart for the 5V input I recently wired into my ECU (Haltech E6K). I'm looking to datalog EGT's with the probe mounted in the exhaust manifold (our engines have two exhaust...

    Speaking of spark plugs...

    As far as the alcohol users here, what are you guys normally doing for plug changes? I'm a Mazda rotary owner that's using Razor's kit. I'm running a fairly heavy ratio of gasoline to alcohol (about 70/30) and am starting to experience what I think might be the spark blowing out at heavier...

    Some interesting reading on methanol & ethanol

    Found this little blurb earlier when I was looking for information on effective octane rating of methanol. Have a peek. http://www.hpt-sport.com/gasclass.htm B

    Doing some tuning today!

    I've got a few errands to run today and will be doing some playing around w/ the system. I've currently got 93 octane in and will be doing some 14-15psi stuff; nothing too, too heavy. I'm still running the stock, top-mount IC until we get the A2W intercooler core done (needs piping and water...

    Alcohol Fuel Manual

    Found this link while cruising around earlier for reading material on alcohol and its latent heat of evapouration. Even though it appears to be overall geared more towards the use of bio-type fuels, it's got some great information on methanol, ethanol, etc. Great reading material for the geek...

    Installed my AlkyControl kit!

    Over the past few days I've been doing the installation of the AlkyControl kit that Razor has been custom designing for my car. I own a 2nd generation Mazda Rx7 and as best as I know Razor hasn't done one up to this point. I've got all of the hardware and electrical mounted and installed with...

    New to Turbobuick.Com! (Alcohol Injection)

    Howdy folks, My name is Brian D. Cain and I'm new to the forum. I was referred to Turbobuick.com by a buddy of mine up in Green Bay, WI named Howard Coleman. He's Howracer on this forum and only has a few posts; all I believe limited to this section. I am not a turbo Buick owner, much...
