this is for the guys who put thier nozzles before the IAT. how long does it take before the sensor will show the colder temps? is it instant?

 

Mine is near instant and no where near my AIT sensor. tho you should not spray right at your AIT sensor. It will yield an incorrect reading from being saturated.

 

my nozzles are placed afew inches before the ait, and doesnt show the temp decrease.

 

15" before the ait and no temperature difference seen on the haltech sensor,

Running -40 windshield fluid as injection.

 

wow thats interesting i wonder why.

 

Here is the 2nd nozzle. More than a foot away from the AIT sensor.



I've heard that there is methanol in washer fluid, but there is other 'crap' in some that i may not want in my motor.

 

ya stay away from the colored ones that contain anti freeze like the yellow or orange ones

the temp sensor should show a temp difference, plenty og other guys do it i think

 

I see a huge temperature drop nearly instantaneously. I logged the IAT with my Innovate LMA3 and you can see the temperature drop. I am running 100% methanol though.

 

i see no temp drops either, mine is about 6inches from my AIT, run only water..
anyone know how to add a status light to varify its working?

 

you need a pressure sensor. Wire it into the pump and wire an LED to the sensor. The one i got is adjustable.

 

do you have a diagram, place to buy this? i have a coolingmist one and dont understand their sensor instruction, i have a hobb switch also.

 

apparntly mine isnt working. i checked it for giggles, turned on pump and do really see anything coming out of nozzles. i check after the check valve and nothing, apparently its not opening the check valve.

 

I am doing mine now. I am using a pressure sensor from Aquamist (I think), and wiring it to a switch. There will also be an LED wired in to tell me if the pressure drops below 120 psi.

I'll take pics and document for ya.

 

sweet, thanks!!!

 

anyone got datalogs?

 

i don't think that intake temperature readings are going to be the key if you are running water. water gives up it's latent heat in the combustion chamber, not in your runners. (not saying there isn't a little cooling, but not much).

further, i recommend that the AIT sensor be moved to the tube between your IC and engine for heat soak reasons.
