Hi:

What route did you use to get the wires from the trunk/bonnet into the car?

How difficult is it to get the center console off?

Thanks

SWR

 

Seeing the thread has revived-- how is system working over the longer period?

 

I think it's safe to say that if a couple of years or so goes by with no engine problems, these systems are safe and reliable.

 

The system works great! I think I am going to go with the Aquamist here soon though so I can have a flow gauge to look at

The center console is very easy to remove, you should find the B&M install page and go off that. As far as the wiring, I went through the factory grommets along the passenger side of the bonnet and along besides the battery into the cabin.

Cant wait to see your pics of the HF6 install! I am going to move the pump to behind the bumper as well.

 

how long does each tank of the mixture last?

 

Very interesting explanation,nice to get that octane out of 94 pump gas.

 

Not to hijack the thread but I am having a Performance Box group buy. PM me for details or check in the group buy section.

Sounds like the AEM setup is working good.

 

I have seen K16G dynos without injector upgrades around 500whp and 550tq, are my uneducated eyes missing something? I am ready to move to 16G's and I need to know...

 

Im curious of the same thing.

 

I think that would entirely depend on driving style. Mixture starts spraying when you hit boost and while you stay in boost. I know people that fill it up every week and others every 3 weeks.

 

Something aproximate using the car hard (racing), something in miles or example re fill everytime you refill gas? Or every half a tank?...

 

Sorry, Iam pretty late to the thread, but do you have and quarter mile runs or 60-130s with the car in its current configuation?

 

With immediately cooler IATs, methanol injection is still one of those performance tuning tools that a lot of people can benefit from. You have less chance of detonation especially when running high boost maps and is also a great safety blanket to reach high power goals.

We've used methanol injection to hit over 400 whp on various BMW 3 Series with great success!

This is definitely a great mod for everyone with little investment!



You can set it and forget it! With the AEM's unique features like BOOST SAFE, users can reduce timing or boost if there's a shortage of fluid or detects a controller error. Basically, protecting your motor from damage in case the worst happens.

Your boost levels would just go back to stock levels.



The AEM units are offered with either a 1-Gallon tank or a 5-Gallon tank.

1-Gallon



5-Gallon




I learned a lot from your thread! It's great to see guys using this affordable power adder on the Porsches. The BMW guys are loving these and reaching new heights especially with the new turbocharged platforms.


This thing is fail safe.

It can only INCREASE reliability for your Porsche.



AEM's Methanol Kit is very conservative and affordable to maintain. It is recommended to mix your methanol in a 50/50 mix with water. This does not only helps to save money but also helps to cleans the carbon build up from inside your engine. With a 5 gallon drum of methanol it will last up to 3 to 4 months, and with the methanol being very affordable this methanol kit will be easily still the cheapest mod that will give you this kind of horsepower.


If you guys have any questions, feel free to shoot over a PM! We're an authorized AEM dealer and can assist you with all of your questions on this great mod!

It all depends on how you set it up (sprays under boost, injector duty cycle, etc...), how it is jetted, and how much you boost the car? A tank could last an hour out on the highway jerking around for an hour or two, or it could last weeks or months. Do a search for audikp. He posted a while ago and said when he roadraces, he can run a whole DE event on a gallon and a half or so, maybe a little more...and if cost is an issue, it also depends if you are running 50/50 or 100%. Obviously 100% will cost more than if you are running windshield washer fluid (a little less than 50/50)...

I'va had my meth injection for about a year and have been through 20 gallons in about that time (3500 miles?) with some dragstrip miles too, no roadracing. Hope that helps...
