Dyno results with various fluids in the W/I

[Sticks]

For those of you that were wondering what kind of HP & TQ reslults you might get when using a particular fluid in a water methanol injection kit, here it is.



#ad




My truck - 02 3500 ETH/DEE, 3:54, 4x4, AFE mega cannon, US-Gear SD E-brake, In Cab Adj Edge EZ, Snow Performance W/M injection stage I (2 - 625ml nozels) with a stage II variable controller (15psi - 50% 22psi - 100%), Southbend Con OFE, Stage II injectors



Run # 1 was on #2 only, and the edge EZ as a boost fooler.

262. 46 hp 599. 04 tq



Dyno run / Gain over EZ / Gain over Previous fluid



Run #2 (not shown) Edge EZ only.

328 hp 835 tq

Run #4 was Edge EZ on level 2, and straight water injection.

332. 7 hp / 4. 7 hp / 4. 7 hp

846. 96 tq / 11. 96 tq / 11. 96 tq

Run #5 was Edge EZ, and your average off the shelf windshield washer fluid injection (contains Methanol).

381. 47 hp / 53. 47 hp / 48. 77 hp

884. 83 tq / 49. 83 tq / 37. 87 tq

Run #6 was Edge EZ, and 50/50 mix of Water to Methanol.

392. 25 hp / 64. 25 hp / 10. 78 hp

891. 91 tq / 56. 91 tq / 7. 08 tq



Don't ask about the EGT results with the three, My EGT gauge only goes to 1500, and I was not on the dyno long enough to see what it did (that and I did not even look).



Now on the way home I was still loaded with the 50/50 mix so I set the cruise on at 78mph turned on the EZ and the W/I and did a wait & see on the rolling hills on the southbound route of I-25 back to Denver. I am still tuned a little heavy on the fluid because my truck did not like having the 50/50 injected holding 19psi (could feel it cutting out) and the cruise certainly did not like it adding the extra 64hp.



Rather than trying to tune the system more, I think that I am going to just stick with a slightly waterd down version of the windshield washer fluid for my EGT controll. Trying to get the best of both worlds of a little extra power, and EGT cooling when pulling up the big hills.

No thank you, I like my engine just way it is. I see no need to re-shape the pistons, valves, and replace the head gasket just for the entertainment value.



Now this guy at the diesel stop needs to seriously listen to his fellow members and get A LOT of water in that mix, pronto. This is presuming that he has not already done irrepreable damage.

Steve Chulupsa Built it for me "He does Buicks& Mustangs" but had Never Done a Deisel.

His first clue

Straight Methanol from the race track with some KLOTZ Lube stuff

His second clue

I'm only using the Medium Jet going right into the intake track. Lot's of Pullers and Racers have Runs the stuff why do you say it stretch the bolts and Melt the Valves. It's More of and Intercooler but the EGT's are only Slightly Raised"I'm set at 1400" then with out it, and I picked up a couple pounds of Boost with the same amount of throttle.

This should have been his first hit to the head.



I had to dig up my membership over there and make my 2nd post in a year.
