Has anyone tried pre-turbo with meth/water yet?

 

i read somewhere that it isn't a good thing to do. i have no clue about it but do remember reading not to do it....cant remember where tho

 

found this thread from another forum... not really sure if id trust his set up tho hah... Pre-turbo water meth

 

It won't really matter. The problem will lie in the intercooler collecting water and condensation while car isn't running... also the water will have a tendency to wash oil off the compressor wheel which may have a negative effect over the long term. I had a post turbo set up in my old diesel truck. Honestly, unless you are doing it to retard knock sensitivity I don't see a whole lot of purpose in water.meth injection. The intercooler keeps the air charge pretty cool

 

Well guess I will find out if it is badyou to do.lol

 

I believe if the nozzle is to big then I can see water would collectyou in intercooler. So far I have no water in intercooler with a .75 gph nozzle and turbo looks fine. Been running it for three months now.

 

Best results for meth injection would be after the intercooler right before the intake manifold.

 

Are you running the meth and the e85 mix now?

 

Yep and I know a lot of people will say I don't need to but az gets hot. Lol and I wanting to see how far I can get with little things.

 

I know I have that. main thing I wanting to find out if I can up the boost with the pre turbo meth. Maybe make this 2871 act bigger. Lol

 

My setup is synapses stage 3 with e30 tune, with 9gph nozzle after intercooler and a .75gph nozzle pre turbo.

 

When are you gonna hit the dyno again? I know you should be making more than before, Im interested in what you make. Im gonna try to hit the dyno soon.

 

Well I hoping soon! I should be over my 422hp for sure

 

One thing that I feel with the setup is that it spools a little faster then with out it

 

I am personal not a big fan of it. I like putting the nozzles on the back side of the turbo.

 

Have you guys tried it?

 

Well considering it is devil's own, the purveyor of many a meth/water injection kit, I would assume they have lol...

In all seriousness though, cooling the aircharge pre-turbo is kind of pointless. The air starts to really heat up when it gets dense... Hence, any cooling done pre-turbo is negated by the boost, well not totally negated, but it does heat back up... You might as well start cooling the boosted air.

This is right off devil's own page... I went by this when I did meth/water on my old diesel truck (may she rest in peace) https://www.alcohol-injection.com/en...jection-nozzle

 

haha thats where i read not to do it

 

Yea i have played with it. you can make some extra power by moving it before, but the trade off is wear on the turbo.
