Lets find out what size nozzle you have and go from there?

Additionally, after reviewing your picture where you had the nozzle previously installed, you were spraying directly across from the mass air as I now noticed the mass air flange directly across from it. That had everything to do with your initial problems.

 

yep you're right, however it didnt look like it would spray at the maf when i had the pipe off, guess i was wrong!

is the place where the injector is now alright? i also moved the checkvalve to JUST before the injector, so nothing will leak like it probably was before

i'll keep you updated when i find the nozzle size. thanks again

 

Due to the design of your cold air intake and the type of supercharger we are working with, we will have to determine if this nozzle location will cure your issues.

 

The whole talk about Meth has caught my attention.... So i am considering putting it on the Balt. Can someone please explain to me why this SS/SC has the meth tapped straight into the blower? Any particular reason?

I can answer that for you. That car was mine and at the time of the install we had been waiting on the spacer from CA for 3 weeks and it never did show up lol. And we needed to test the kit ASAP so that's why we did that. Oh and that was the first Cobalt in the world to have that AIS kit lol

 

We generally recommend installing the nozzle in the cold air pipe just before the throttle body rather then actually drilling and tapping the snout of the supercharger. There's nothing wrong with doing it this way. However, when you do you should relocated the check valve from the rear behind the nozzle.

 

Is this systems similer to how the N20 system works were you have to push a button for it to work or does it free flow? also how easy or hard is it to install?

 

No you do not push a button to activate it. Depending on which system you use. It will automatically activate based on a desired boost setting you select or you can use your mass air signal with our Stage 2 progressive system in which you can set start and full points based off of your mass air flow sensor output.

 

Is it easy to install and with my intake, exhaust and the tune I have what do you think the gain would be ?

 

This system is extremely easy to install. Unlike competitors systems we fully assemble, pre-wire and test each system before it's packaged. Furthermore, since it's all one unit all you need to do is choose a location in your trunk to mount the system.

Additionally, with our all new black anodized aluminum tank straps the installation has become even faster. This replaces the previously supplied adjustable rubber straps which were included with each system.

Thanks for answering me.... So i can install this kit just like the others, into the intake tubing? BTW what does the module look like that controls the system? I know you set it to a certain lb of boost to activate but im not familiar with it.

 

If you look closely at the picture above you will notice we have already epoxied the boost switch to the pump on Stage 1 systems. For Stage 2 system we use a progressive controller which looks like this below.

 

Cool thanks but what is the gains that I could see?

 

Gains largely depend on the type of additional modifications and base horsepower to begin with as well as tuning. Typically our member will pick up 15-20 horsepower at the tires. Furthermore, water methanol injection is more then a performance enhancer. It also adds an additional layer of protection against detonation thereby helping to eliminate engine damaging detonation.

 

you won't see a gain without tuning the ecm to compensate for it.

 

Now Available:

Pre-assembled "single" and "dual" nozzle stainless steel hose assemblies. This is the same -4 nitrous line with the exception we have made a change to the inner hose so that is compatible for use with 100% methanol. This kits are designed to replace the plastic fluid line of our rear trunk mount systems. These stainless steel hose assemblies may be used with other manufactures water methanol injection systems. However, we can not guarantee it will fit other companies nozzle holders or check valves.

whats the point of dual nozzles.

 

For the Cobalt's, its not necessary other then for the look of it. When we start dealing with high horsepower non-intercooled applications over 650 horsepower, we use dual nozzles to better support these engines. With 1000+ applications it's simply mandatory. For one, its for better atomization as we can take one large nozzle such as a 12 or 14 and cut it in half by running two number 6's or 7's. This makes for a better atomization on turbo and centrifugal applications. Two, the motor is making so much horsepower we have to in order to effectively support it.

Additionally, it may be a dual carburetor or dual throttle body application in which needs two nozzle to receive a proper distribution.

 

We see a lot of discussions going on about water methanol on the forum. If you have questions give us a call or read through some of the many questions already asked to see if your questions has already been answered.

 

Just a thought, have you pulled the nozzle out and tested it off the engine? If it's clogged or damaged, it might be causing the water to splash instead of mist, which could be causing the problem. Try removing the nozzle from the intake and spraying it. Can't hurt to check it.

 

i thought of that, done it a couple of times with no clog. besides, the system is working pretty primo right now. i'm just curious if i can go down to a 2.8" from my 2.9" and be safe on the gm stage tune

 

Yes you can drop down from your 2.9 to 2.8 running a 50/50 mix of water methanol with at least a size 6 nozzle.

 

how many GPH is a size 6 nozzle btw?

 

Our number 6 nozzle flows 6 GPH at 150psi.
