Hey Josh:

Are you still using this setup for your meth nozzles?

Did you find that it kept your fuel trims consistent?

Looks like you used JB Weld on the nozzle fittings.

Curious to give this a try if it works.

[Joshboody]

Yeah works great, but I think if you have a large difference in trims its likely not solely due to meth distribution. Worth a shot though.

I have now dialed my meth DC back to 50% max midrange and 70% top end w/ starting injection at 10psi. Much less usage... loving it.

Pretty sure the trim divergence is due to uneven meth flow and freezing ambient temps.

My fuel trims are identical between banks when I don't spray.......so I draw conclusions from that comparison.

I am spraying at 60% DC and agree that it feels better and actually improves the uneven fuel trims by about 5%.....I guess due to less volume resulting in less liquification of the meth.

Did you use JB Weld on the meth bungs?

[Joshboody]

I did put a little jb weld on the threads.

Thanks

Two more questions before I give this a try:

1) Did you use the 1/8 NPT tap to thread into the plastic up-pipe?
2) Were you using the dual 1.0mm nozzles when you did those logs?

I ended up routing the hoses on the left side under the intercooler pipe to clear the radiator support.

I think it was 1/8 NPT for the bungs... howerton has the specifics on the website I think.

Yes, have always used duel.

I believe I used 1/8 NPT x 27 and .332" drill bit IIRC. I got the sizes from google with a "1/8 NPT drill size" search.

Thanks guys!

Yes Howerton has a 1/8 tap kit on their website as you indicated Josh.

Are you still running a 50% DC midrange tapering up to 70%? Jeff Howerton does not recommend running 100% duty cycle on the FAV...I was surprised but I guess you need some pulsing action to promote better atomization

I might drop down a nozzle size or two to get a finer spray pattern.

Hey guys, would it make sense to install the meth kit using a fuel cell( the smaller slimmer kind)?
I feel it would be much safer and some fuel cells can fit under the trunk mat. just an idea, let me know what you think.

Yeah still 50 to 70% at WOT. I can post my table later.

I would be very interested in seeing that

I will give this a try.........

Here is my table:

Yours is more progressive through the rpm range than mine

[Ilma]

Hey Josh:

Here is a datalog I just pulled using your meth table.

It was only the second run, so maybe not completely adapted, but looking very good nonetheless

3rd gear used to feel like it would bog at lower rpms, but not now.

It responds much better with the lower meth flow at low rpms.

Feels very smooth too.

Thanks man......I like it.

Nice, looks good. Curious to see the new logs once you move the nozzles.

Me too.

But it's still 32F up here in Toronto, so the weather needs to warm up a bit first before I crawl under the car to unclip the up-pipe from the intercooler and tap it.

I will post up logs though.
