ARCHIVE Wits' End Turbo Test Mule #3- no cartwheeling allowed (1 Viewer)

[scottryana]

Well a Devils Own #3 is 370ml/min, much more than Joey will be running, and there is zero reason to run straight meth on the OBDII 1FZ. Mostly water like 30% meth to 70% water would be a better mix since the enthalpy of water (40660 J/mol) is higher than methanol (35200 J/mol). You do not spray meth injection on an OBDII truck for fuel enrichment you are only using it for charge cooling. This is different than the people using the methanol as a fuel source.

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.

370ml? Huh ok. I thought #3 was pretty small. So small it clogs up all the time. 100 would really small. Is that even going to do anything? It just depends how convenient u want to make it. The bigger the tank, the less often u have to fill it. I use it for charge cooling and timing advance personally. I dont know what enthalpy is. Just sharing my experience with meth. Do you run meth?

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

Striking out finding this thing... hard. With dual batts coming and turbo, gonna need to find this thing haha

I’ll look when I’m back in front of my laptop

Yep sure do. Advancing timing or increasing boost with meth is a poor idea usually. You run into a problem with the pump, clogged injector, empty tank, etc and you have detonation and ruin a motor. Fine for a race car poor idea for a Land Cruiser.

That's why you have knock sensors so that if some detonation occurs the ecu backs off the timing automatically. That's how it is with all fuel systems and forced induction. Have an injector fail or fuel pump issue, you blow a motor. But if you don't push everything to the absolute limit, then you usually buy some give in case something goes wrong and hopefully see it in the gauges.

Thread we don't talk about.

That's like using the search function in mud. Impossible.

Even some searches with the best mud-search-foo leave us empty handed.

I don't trust 25 year old knock sensors. I have had too many issues with them. Certainly don't trust my motor to them.

So small it clogs up all the time.

Do your injectors fail all the time, do you have fuel pump issues all the time? I really doubt it, but admittedly your meth injectors clog all the time.

You can use a knock light too with a separate knock sensor for extra insurance if your worried about your old sensors. Or just install new ones. Good insurance. For my meth I should install a filter to alleviate any clogging. I can tell by the feel of how it runs if it's working or not. I also have a activation light on the dash that tells me when the meth engages. Yeah I've had fuel injectors fail, I've also had a map sensor stick which caused lean fuel. But anyway, i think a bigger tank is more convenient.

I know I asked for more but this is on another level

The brand new OEM Toyota Exhaust Manifolds have just arrived. These things look so nice I almost don’t want to send them out to be ceramic coating...but, ceramic coated they will be

For those with the 1FZ and doing the Turbo these aren’t very much money. Just FYI.

New JDM fan. Need to order the pigtail for this.

 

[cahill]

Lots of fun stuff going in.

Not serviced.

Need to build a pigtail for this by removing this connector

Or harvest the vehicle-side connector from a wrecked 90-95 4Runner.

Why a new set before coating?
I've considered using Swain Tech's White Lightning for coating.
White Lightning Exhaust Coatings • Swain Tech Coatings | Industrial Coatings | High Performance Racing Coatings
