Meth/water injection?
I have decided to add a met/water injection system to my car only to be used on the track as a safety system. At this point I'm thinking I'm using the Aquamist system, does anyone know of a better system or have a reason why I shouldn't use Aquamist?

I used this one on my Sti. Worked great. Coolingmist CMGS PRO Water Methanol Injection Kit Import Image Racing
Aquamist is pretty much the best available, but there are other options out there that will work fine. |
Are you forced induction or na? If na I wouldn't bother..
|
It has a Stillen supercharger on it.

Aquamist is a good choice and is what I use. When I moved to Texas, I knew this was a must. The Aquamist held up well in 110F Texas heat. It also helped tremendously with keeping intake air temps down and boost levels consistent. In the winter I don't use it much and actually tend to turn it off.

when i had my stillen i used stage 2 snowperformance
i did not get it tune for power but i also used it for the cooling effect and when using it i could touch the intake manifold after a run before it the intake manifold was so hot i could cook an egg on it i still have every thing wired up and think i may use it with my turbo kit i had a single bung weild onto the intake just before the elbow and in the cockpit i had a switch to turn the system on and off with an led indicator for when i was getting low on fluid |

Hmmm...I would have thought taking the heat out of the intake would effect all of them. Either way less heat is a good thing.

But wouldn't any heat taken out of the cylinders by the meth be heat that doesn't end up in the water or oil?
|
Maybe a bit, but I would thnk most of that heat leaves with the exhaust anyway. The Stillen kit seems to have an IAT issue, not coolant or oil. If you've got an issue with one of those, I'd address it with a radiator or oil cooler. Have the fans kick on earlier through Uprev. Meth/water is for IATs and knock resistance.
|
I don't think I have a heat problem but it hasn't been on the track since the supercharger was installed so I'm nervous about it. I have a oil cooler, lowered when the fan comes on and added a Carbon Creations vented hood already so hopefully that is enough to keep it cool!
