    How does methanol affect wideband readings?

    If you have a wideband, use the lamda figure, not air/f as that number WILL change depending what type of fuel you're using...lamda stays consistant. A/f is just a mathimatical formula using lamda...

    Port Injection Alky

    The only tests I've done right now were with the m5 nozzles. I did 2 rigs, one with large baby food jars and then with larger jelly jars. I sprayed into the jelly jars for over a minute and the volume sprayed was similar results as before. Only a thumbnails difference. I thought about teeing...

    Port Injection Alky

    I'm probably the one that made the post awhile back. I've running a port injection system with a progressive controller and it's been working great. It was a little more complicated to set up, but not really that bad. There were 2 reasons I went this route. One, I'm running an inline 6 (datsun...

    Tuning questions with alky

    If you're using a wideband for tuning, I suggest looking at lamda, not a/f. Lamda is a constant no matter what fuel you are using, while a/f is just a calcuation made from lamda for the certain type of fuel you're using. Life with methanol and tuning will be much easier this way. No guessing on...

    Going to step it up this year Individual cyl nozzles!

    as you may have read in the devils own thread, I've done the same thing you are looking to do, but with a different application (83 nissan 280zxt). Here's a pic of my manifold when I was mocking it up w/ just nozzles and a few hoses. I can take a picture of the finished project if you're...

    devils own/diy

    Not trying to get too far off topic, but I'm my own tuner, and I'm not using the methanol just for cooling air, I'm using it mainly for a fuel (the cool air is a plus tho :) ). My car uses batch fire injection, so even tho the meth system doesn't pulse like an injector, there is going to be...

    devils own/diy

    Sorry, I should've thrown that out in my original post. It's a nissan/datsun l28et inline 6 engine. With a manifold as long as mine, there has been discussions/debates about even distribution of fluids in an intake like our car uses. I wanted to take no chances. Also, it will allow me to use...

    devils own/diy

    I recently installed one of the devils own kits and set my car up with direct port meth. injection. So far I've been very pleased. Good customer support and he even called me on a sunday after I e-mailed him with a problem earlier that morning. I've got pretty high hopes for this kit, we'll just...

    water/methanol and race gas?

    I know what you mean about the o2 sensors...I know for a fact that I went through over 10 of them in the last 2 years. 10x$35=way too much to think about. James

    water/methanol and race gas?

    Thanks for the input guys. I'm heading to the track again next friday so I'll see how she runs and see what kind of boost the car will take before she starts to see some ping. Sorry about the confusion with the race gas thing...O2 sensors and leaded gas for me never have really worked well...

    water/methanol and race gas?

    Well, first off, I wanna say that I may not belong in this forum because I don't have a turbo buick...infact, I've got just about the opposite. I own a '83 nissan 280zxt with a T3/T04E hybrid turbo. I'm currently running 20psi with my setup, but its the stock computer. I can't change the...

    water/methanol and race gas?

    Alright...I've been reading through a couple hundred old posts on this site as well as many other sites and I've got a question for you guys. Why not run race gas and water/methanol injection? Or would this not be ideal? I mean, you could run even more boost and timing, or am I missing something...
