Still trying to figure out if that methanol injection would do any good on an N/A setup if you set it up with an aggressively scaled FPR and a vacuum line to the intake.

As intake pressure increases, the meth would kick in and the fuel pressure would increase. It would work in theory, right?

P.S. - Hey Tact. Didn't see you there.
methanol injection on an N/A setup will gain you a good 10-20hp easily. if not more based on tuning. While power gains are typically less in stock compression naturally aspirated vehicles compared to high compression or forced induction engines, benefits can still be realized due to more timing advance, leaner air/fuel ratios, cleaner engine components, lower temperatures, and the use of the methanol in the injection fluid as a secondary fuel source. along with DI on the v-6, a s/c would be decent, but I really think a TT setup with meth would be stupidcrazyOMGWTFBBQ powerful.

whats my pace?

I know that you know...But, did you know, that I knew, that you know?

Tell him, she needs to be ridden, or she will go lame.







This is your pace:

EXACTLY!

P.S. - Thanks for the info on the N/A methanol gains, Spike. I *may* end up looking into it. If I can gain enough from the meth injection + FPR setup, I may just breeze over forced induction entirely and just go with some mild cams to get the rest of my power needs.
