i already know the secret. water/alcohol injection. But as every one is correct I think in one sense. I know denatured alcohol is correstive. I just havent had any problems with it yet. I think 50/50 mix would be best.

But if you can get a product colder even it has less specific heat it can still come out on top with heat transfer being better. I'm done.

whatchootalkinboutwillis?!?!? what/where did i say anything about spearco?!?!? i know where you're coming from, i think. as a matter of fact, i helped design grace_under_psi's water injection setup. what this has to do with an IC sprayer, i'll never know. if you dilute 91% alcohol with water like a 50/50 mix in say a gallon total, it becomes something like 70% isopropyl...aka rubbing alcohol.

Litlespic,
My GT Turbo is coming along just fine. I'm going for mid 13's with no intercooler, "aquahol" only. Geek and i have a fine understanding of all things alcohol. It works, i used up to 19 psi from my old stock T3 with no knocking. Good luck with your engine!

not same thing. Thats called racing alchol. Which is methonal. Used do to higher flash point and burns quicker. Im not even sure where you start to go to convert your car just to run methonal. Im not sure if its like diesel trucks but they run propane injection.

you start with upgrading your fuel lines and any related seals, and maybe your fuel pump. yes, you can put isopropyl in a fuel infected car...we used to have to do it in extremely cold climates to fight-of gas freeze when nothing else was available. it raises combustion temps as alcohol burns very hot. back to methanol conversion, you almost HAVE to go to stainless steel valves and do some proactive measures to control ignition and cooling in order to parlay the effect netted from methanol. you also have to deal with the fact that upper cylinder lubricant will play a major role in longevity of the engine.

I wish everyone had good luck with lima's.. I cant seem to get more than a month of solid work out of mine. Its good to hear yours is running.. is everything together and how you wanted it for a 13 or still have more to do?

I ran a 98mph trap with 22psi, bobs header, bobs intakes, and exhuast... the car hauled balls.. I couldnt launch the one wheel bandit at the track though...
