LuLu Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 What do y'all think about Methanol Injection? Is it for real, or, just another "Snow" job? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraracing Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 I have used it on my Blown Lincoln with awesome reults (617 HP) I have a kit that i am installing this weekend and will have it on the dyno on May 3rd Keep you informed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave c Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 What do y'all think about Methanol Injection? Is it for real, or, just another "Snow" job? Don't know that much about them, it's quite a simple system and it runs off windshield wiper fluid. It lowers temps dramatically, actually its a cheap insurance policy. You can up your boost on the SC cars and still run lower temps according to what I've read. Louie is running it on his GT/SC with a Paxton. Maybe we can get his opinion on it. Here's a link for some info. The system seems almost too simple. http://www.alcoholinjectionsystems.com/a43...ticle_info.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The system seems almost too simple. http://www.alcoholinjectionsystems.com/a43...ticle_info.html I had it installed because I'm way past the safety factor ( helps prevent detonation), it will give you more timing which = HP. I don't use windshield wiper fluid because it left residue on the bottom of the tank, VP meth 100% 50/50 mix. My Pax is pumping out 12.5 psi at 93 oct 488 rwhp and 100oct 503 rwhp 448 rwtq.

cobraracing Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 I use the 99.9% pure alcohol drops the air temps up to 180 degrees and effectively adds 16 points in octane (94-110) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
69dejavue Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 Correct me if I am wrong but this will have no effect on a stock 07 SGTs HP. It would only be beneficial if there was additional tuning for the higher octane. Is that correct? And once tuned for the alcohol injection you would have to run the alcohol at all times?
