You're not running high boost so it should work fine however you could also check to see if there is a fuel injector replacement that flows a little bit more fuel than your current stock injectors and swap them in. The stock computer can adjust fuel within a certain range ~10% to counter the...

I believe the injector nozzle pointing toward airflow is mostly theory and specific conditions. The idea is based on atomization but I believe that's most effective in high boost situations that can accommodate the high fuel pressures needed to accomplish this. It's a balance, since you're...

You're referencing the same route option that I'm thinking without it being said. The fuel pressure access point would be a perfect source and is what was used in the past. I have used it before. I'm assuming by charge pipe you mean right at the entrance of the throttle body as this would be...

This is the reason for the creative fuel delivery, being minimally invasive with an otherwise stock car, maintaining the ability to quickly undo modifications. There's nothing wrong with secondary fueling methods as long as they can be made dependably safe and they can be. In my experience with...

I believe a series of low to medium flow water/methanol injection nozzles might be a better option over the mechanical rising rate fuel delivery unless you can make it more dependable. You probably will not suffer much of an issue at such a low boost pressure when it fails to show up for duty...

My unspoken thoughts are highly influential on my plans/proposals. I've had a snow performance variable water/meth controller fail in use and I've had a system running water only, end up spraying too much quenching combustion. As a result although I may not mention it, I would plan to have...

This points out the boutique nature of this subject. In order to exercise full access to the possibilities and specifics in the exact details needed for your project, you need to have a lathe and a mill so that you can tailor your application. The P2 is highly convenient, except in your...

That's not the same as this; "also - 100% meth has an Intercooling benefit over 50:50. This is not an anti-det benefit - which is what my post was about.". Intercooling is an anti detonation benefit, hot air predisposes to detonation, no is what you're saying? Perhaps you intended to say not...

I'm pretty familiar with it and have used it quite a bit. My curiosity is with the accuracy of the power requirement for the compressor. The bot specs are for a traditional turbo powered by exhaust gases. Did Borg do bench tests of the compressor power requirement to arrive at the provided...

Assuming all here have a basic understanding of how an engine works, reducing primary fuel in exchange for the addition of a secondary fuel supply goes without saying. I believe it's reasonable to expect everyone here understands rich and lean condition concepts. Reducing primary fuel is...

I dismissed the reservoir because a good bit of coolant would be tied up in the plumbing and I've used water to air intercooling before which is very effective at bringing temps down quickly and in this case the relatively small motor is being cooled as opposed to a very large and much hotter...

Now you're talking because that's the kind of ingenuity I was thinking of. You could put the trans cooler in front of the ac condenser and at speed I doubt you'd need a reservoir given the size of the motor relative to the heat exchange rate not to mention the coolant volume tied up in the...

Haven't put mine in service yet but I'm using dual 2535 Castle motors so I doubt it will be an issue. With that coil rapped around the motor and some how prevented from vibrating and then it being rapped with a small insulation barrier on the outside provided you can get some ambient to cold...

Perhaps a water cooling jacket or other motor cooling support given some of the heat soak is most certainly contributed to by the hot engine bay.

Although a larger compressor wheel permits lower rpm speeds to achieve the desired boost pressure, theoretically the energy input needed is the same, whether it's the stress exerted on the belt of turning at high rpm, or the stress exerted on the belt in the form of increased tension at a lower...

It's pretty much the same thing. It really depends on what you need or want. 50/50 is just how it was always promoted back in the "stone ages" and during injections early use it was just water injection for fighter planes. Now it is probably driven more by marketing benefits to the...

I do believe that is incorrect from my experience with it. The question is the benefit ratio of 50/50 mix vs. 100%. The 50/50 ratio has a safety measure involved in that it is not likely to catch fire in the event of a leak near an ignition source. 100% however should have the benefit of the...

If you're running the 25 mm wide belt that would help and perhaps the pulley I was running was on the small side causing more flex related friction. Whatever the case it was too hot to be compatible with longevity. Another thing I just realized is that I was using belts with rounded cogs instead...

I decided to switch to gearing after not being comfortable with the too hot to touch belt in my first build during unloaded short test runs and knew the temps would only get higher with actual boost pressure being generated and increased run times. I know these belts are capable in automotive...

I doubt it will be a problem at all considering the traditional loads the motor was designed for in a near 50lb rc car shock loading it from running over rough terrain will be absent, run time will pale in comparison and it's sharing a load with a like motor equating to a 50% reduction in load...
