2009 promises to be an exciting AI year for many of us. i have a number of projects most of which are new stuff to me...

FJO METH

looking for 630 rwhp and no knock. it appears i finally have what i want together for 09. i built a killer engine w advanced ports and carry over my FJO HD AI system running a Bosch pump w a return line. 1400 CC/Min of meth. i fired my motor last week and hope to be on the dyno within 10 days.

COOLINGMIST

i am excited about utilizing a couple of Coolingmist systems.

one is 100% water (500 CCs) and the other is 1260 CCs of 100% meth looking for big hp.

the water system uses the new round gauge/controller and the trunkmount tank with the 250 psi pump. i built a fresh motor for the car w 22 degrees of additional port timing. the turbo is a GT35R w an ATP hotside. the owner autocrosses and runs Road America so we are looking for 400ish hp and a broad area under the curve.


the meth system (VC2 Stage 2) uses the 3.5 X3.5 display panel w two M10 nozzles. i had a long talk w David at Coolingmist and am comfortable the pump will work fine w meth. the car runs the R85 turbo. i built a max port engine for it. ports are similar to my engine. the car is gorgeous
BTW. 'just painted black w really nice Burnout body panels.

we will all be on the Beyond Redline Dyno in a few weeks so stay tuned as we explore what you can do w water and crank up the meth.

thanks to Jason at the RX7Store for all the help this year.

Howard,

Thanks for the call the other day. Keep me informed and of course any questions let me know.

It's very cool to see you putting this info out there for our community. I'm especially interested to see the results from the water-only setup.

 

Howard, interesting that you mentioned a return line, because my plan was to run a return line as well. What are the pros/cons in having a return line? Not sure how you are running yours, but I had contemplated using a 3-way normally closed solenoid that energizes with the boost switch from my kit. Off boost, the meth mix would circulate back to the tank similar to the return of the fuel system. Wasn't sure if I should go ahead with that idea or if it would actually be of any benefit in having a return line. I've already got my Coolingmist stage 1 kit and was looking to get a custom solenoid to add to it for the return feature.

 

Howard, give me a call. I'd like to know more about this!
