ojcool Posted March 20, 2007 Report Posted March 20, 2007 Proper fuel tuning requires quite a large capitol equipment with space, personnel, and labratory equipment. There really aren't that many people who do it in the racing industry even if the particular race sanctioning body allows it. (by saying that I am fully expecting some one to come up with some sort of joke about the 2007 Daytona 500) :thumbsup: Ever fool with NitroMethane? I saw a guy use it once on a mustang with twin novi 2000's on a big block. It made power, 100hp but I would never use it. I remember some guy on SRT forums wanted to put it in his water injection system. Don't know if he ever did it but if you can use it safely that is kind of a cool way to use it. Quote

I think Blowit might have more experience with it than I do. From my experience water injection is best suited to large, emissions quipment laden, gasoline fueled motor home engines. (I am not saying it doesn't work, I am saying there are better ways to go) :geek: Quote

Really IMO it lets you tune the engine like your running a race fuel with pump gas. You have to run alot of timing to make power with it. And then of course your counting on the water injection to make the tune safe. So if anything goes wrong with your water injection your f'ed. It's not the magic powermaker that some people claim and it is completly useless on naturally aspiriated engines. Quote
