Turbo supercharged engines... no problem!

Supercharged Diesels - Twincharging Basics

How supercharging works on diesel engines. Twincharging, a combination of supercharging and turbocharging, plays on the benefits of an engine driven supercharger and an exhaust driven turbocharger in order to significantly reduce turbo lag and improve overall performance.

if only that wasn't filmed on a potato without a tripod. I'm at work but I bet the sound of that monster was glorious.

@Dissent I took your advice on the parallel flow condenser. It’s a little smaller but all the mounting looks perfect. Did you paint it black or keep it grey?

Very nice! I kept it grey until my headlight work is done, then I'll paint it and the rest of the radiator support black.

More wholesome goodness has arrived.

Some may look and see a new OEM windshield washer tank. Others see a methanol injection storage tank.

I don’t know what you are talking about

I don’t know what you are talking about

Why not run a JDM corolla(?) tank in the fender to keep room for a dual batt setup? or are you planning on running it back in the corner by the CC module?

 

[NLXTACY]

I have the JDM setup in my SC’d truck that I could rob from.

Currently no plans for dual battery in this truck but I could. It will or sure be getting a York OBA.

 

[Wompom]

I dig the york setup. I want to go down that route once my pockets allow it.

I'm liking the JDM setup. Need to look into that. Nice way to free up some space.

I feel like everyone eventually just goes dual batteries if they run a few accessories.

I ONLY run dual batteries because I’d be out in the middle of nowhere for stretches. I haven’t had much time to do that lately. And this truck isn’t for that. Besides, I’ll have a battery in the rear QPM.

@NLXTACY Trying to dig up your corolla bottle install thread. Any idea where it is? Can't find it.

It was part of the "stupid cooling ideas" or" overheating thread"

If I had to setup meth again, I probably would use a pretty big tank. I go through it pretty fast if Im going up and down mountain passes in my 4runner.

What size nozzle? I’m only going 80/100mL

What size nozzle? I’m only going 80/100mL

I don't know how many mL. I use devil's own nozzles. They start at #1 and go up from their. #1 being the smallest I use #3. So its not a very big nozzle. If Im doing a lot of mountain driving then I will go through a gallon in about 10 to 14 days. If Im just putzin around town a gallon will last me a month. My motor is a 3.4, so naturally it should use less meth than a 4.5. If you have room to hide one somewhere, a 3 or 4 gallon tank would be nice. If you have access to a dyno, you can fine tune the meth nozzle size. Devils own also sells a ramp up controller thats not very expensive so you can increase the meth as boost increases which looks like a cool option. Also, keep in mind that if you run 100% meth, and you use your washer jug for meth and cleaning the windshield, I noticed that it oxidizes the clearcoat on the paint near the washer nozzles. I normally run 50% and its fine. It also de-ices the windshield nicely. But with a dedicated tank you can run 100% as an option without worry if you want.
