I jest picked up a dual stage cooling mist kit for my turbo. Here are some pics of it

 

what does it do??

 

it cools the intake charge.

 

how much more horse power does it give you?

 

"It" doesn't give any more power, what it does do is give the installer the "capability" to tune for more power by adjusting fuel and timing curves. Using a 50/50 water/methanol mix you increase ocatane to over 100 and permit more timing, cool intact charge and permit more boost.

 

ya what he said^^

 

thank

 

any cons to that?

 

wow, how much did that kit cost you?
i've been thinking of installing something like that.
i would prefer getting this as oppose to the ever so popular
"Cold Air Intake"
but methanol? is methanol really necessary. i mean wouldnt play water be suffice?

 

i got it for $175 from a friend of mine who got it but then changed his mind and went to alk injection.

 

I looks like its the newer model that uses Nesquick, the 87 version.

 

lol didnt you hear that nesquick give you like 20 hp.

 

I was actually looking into a direct port Nesquik system.
I heard they tend to lock the engine though. Something about running pure sugar tends to hurt your apex seals...
I think it's just a bunch of skeptics.
^_^

 

ya but they fixed that on 85 kit all you do is add some milk and watch as you hit low 10's lol.

 

^^HAHAHAHA

whats the brand name of the system? im gonna be needing one of these soon, well that or alky inj. but i dont want to mess with that yet..

 

Nice buy!

 

Hope no one turns on the stove

 

There ya go. I have been running achy for YEARS, and I love the stuff!

 

What are your supporting mods?

EMS or Stock ECU?

I've been debating wether an injection system on a stock ecu will work or not.

I think Chemical intercooling is the only reliable method in hot places like AZ.

 

why can't you just run alcohol through that kit?

 

Would probably eat the hoses

 

its a cooling mist kit and as for mods i have a s4 street ported motor with an s5 bnr stage 2 turbo. at some point i will probably get rc 750 secondaries and a walbro 255 pump.

 

What about ECU though?

How are you going to compensate for the water?

EMS with a tuned map for it?

Or Stock ECU with the injection far ewnough up stream so the stock sensors see the change?

 

well the guy i talked to said i didnt need any turning with it since its only spraying a fine mist of water and all it really will be doing is cooling the intake charge.

 

You will be substituting a little air with water and the intake temp drop needs to be measured or else the ECU will do incorrect math.

I've thoguht about doing it on the end tank of the top mount but wondered if pooling would be an issue or if that was enough distance for the temp change to be recorded by the stock air sensor.

Pre intercooled injection isn't liked because the IC itself could condense the water on the fins.

If you had a front mount then I owudl say there would be enough piping distance to properly disperse the water and drop the temp before it reaches the sensor.
