Stock converter/turbo and 1.64 sixty foot is great.

Thanks!

I have been wondering myself if you could 't' off of the alchy system for a 50-75 hp wet nitrous system.

You can't use alky as the fuel for a nitrous kit, you have to use methanol. Alky is an anti-detonant as far as I know and not a suitable substitute for a fuel where methanol is.

The problem I see is there would be a delay from when the alcohol pump comes on and reaches full pressure, unlike using the feed off of the fuel rail where you have pressure all the time. So there might be a split second when it running like a dry nitrous system. If you use it for spool, where the nitrous comes on at wot and cuts off at 15-20#, then there might be very little extra alcohol that gets injected by the nitrous system.

I've never messed with alky/meth before, how does the kit engage? Does the pump kick on when the kit engages or is there a solenoid that opens?

If the system is activated by the pump turning on, you'd have to work something out to avoid the lean spike in the beginning. I would probably use a generic inline pump from a parts store and tap into the alky/meth reservoir and just run a separate meth line for the nitrous system. Have the pump set up to turn on when you arm the nitrous system. That way, you'd have pressure at the fuel solenoid when you started to spray. You could even use a super cheap electric pump for a carburetor application and just calculate jet sizes based on 7-10 PSI fuel pressure like a carburetor nitrous kit. Double that fuel pill and I think you'd be in the ball park.

You could also build a delay into the nitrous solenoid opening. However, that would kind of kill the point of using nitrous to aid spool time.

.

I think the alchy pump turns on around 5# boost, then increases speed as boost increases.

For the purpose I was thinking about of spooling the turbo, it may not even be necessary to run it wet. For a momentary 50-75 shot, I may be able to run it dry. If I need to, I could increase the alchy gain knob, or play around with the 'initial' setting.

Methanol of a form of alcohol which most abbreviate to alky.

On the Razor's progressive alky kits, you get a new MAP sensor, which when boost is applied to it from the plenum, it sends a signal to the PAC box which then tells the pump to turn on and also adjusts how much alky the pump sends to the engine.
