Methanol injection anyone?
Hi guys, was wondering if any tuners use methanol or H2o injection? I am using it on my other car and it works great. With it you can run tons of boost/timing on pump gas. I was able to get 475whp out of a 2 liter.Anyone running this on there car?

i had it on my sti........
you need to really dial down the injectors (if running meth) and have a much greater timing advance (and boost) potential....
i was seeing zero knock and the intake was actually cold after a full pull..
AFAIK, there arent alot of porsche's running this....
ese
ps- i dont know the long-term effects of meth on internals (but changed oil very often anyway)....
i had my progressive system custom built and installed by www.alkycontrol.com in st. pete... way top notch components and quality (overkill, but essential in worry-free operation)

Craig took the methanol/water off his 996tt and added N20. It definately works.
Which system are you running? Aquamist and Snow are the two major players.

I am running the coolingmist kit (150psi black pump) controlled by an AEM EMS on a SR20DET motor. It works great as I am able to run 25-26 psi on 91 octane with 0 knock. My tuner said he feels like I can run up to 30 psi but the motor still retains a stock bottom end. The meth starts kicking in via the AEM at 10+ psi. Methanol is very cheap too, much less than running race gas. I would think that you would need an aftermarket ECU to run it however.

Are we talking about (2) different things?
methanol injection into the combustion chamber?
nitrous: but is "injected" onto the intercoolers ala; Sharkey, DMK, Craig ??
please verify,

Methanol is injected into the engine. I have my nozzle a few inches before my throttle body. People also have direct port systems (individual nozzles into each cylinder for equal distribution.

that is what I thought, and only a few have tried nitrous injection, so for what was discussed above, Nitrous was used for cooling intercoolers only. This would be a typical project for the "mad professor" to solve.

yes, but i'm guessing eddie wasn't using the stock ecu. w/ a stand-alone, you can do whatever you want.
if i had meth injection on my 996tt, i'd be in heaven... i could fuel up on 91 all day long, inject the meth, and get about 110 octane w/ intense cooling of the intake charge.
