    Higher boost and E85 or Methanol

    I am buying 2.5" fire hose for my intercooler piping which is 2 1/4 gonna sleeve the pipes for insulation. I tuned the timing better and running 22 psi fine with spraying 50/50 meth/water. I will later tune for 26 or 28 psi and then i will use pure race gas along with the methanol. I will go...

    Pat you said "Mixing leaded and unleaded fuel is a guessing game as different components that may be used in fuel have different reactions to the addition of lead. You will never know the exact composition of any fuel you buy, or if it changed from last time. The specs for fuel are performance...

    lol you are taking it the wrong way i dont know about the available fuels honestly i dont and i am not giving a darn about my personal health and lead i was conerned about the MOTOR and lead, i dont know what if any effects are on the engine, since i was young i see unleaded fuel on every pump...

    hell i just looked at that 100ll site and that gas at 7 something a gallon is only 50 cents more then im paying for methanol. so if i add like 3 gallons of this to 12 gallons of 93 octane what kind of shape will i be in.

    Higher boost and E85 or Methanol

    to answer the question about my oem ECU, I am using a software that allows full table editing of the factory ecu all tables, timing, fuel, boost, Load, even the speed limiters, i calibrated a bigger Mass air flow housing with it and a bigger MAP sensor to read the hgher boost i am running. I...

    my exhaust is fully catless its all 3" from turbo back to end of car with a borla muffler that has no restriction. So what does leaded mean for gas ? and how high will this raise my octane by mixing it, will it be better then buying 106 octane race fuel from sonoco ? i always leaded meant it...

    the Wiseco have the exact same dished shape as the factory pistons but have way better skirts with a special coating on them. So even tho my new head gasket is more stff and more like metal vs the flimsy factory gasket its bad ?

    Higher boost and E85 or Methanol

    i have not maxed the injectors yet i can still get the car to run rich as hell. I am and always will spray the methanol into the intake manifold which is what everyone does on this car and it works very well for the reasons i stated before with all the build up on the intake valves and easy...

    At the local race shop i saw them advertising some form of ethanol, the same place i buy my methanol for my water/meth kit. I dont know what form they are selling it in, but any ideas of what form it is in, and what do i need to mix it with if its pure.

    if i am seeing 1400 on my egt gauge which is after the turbo in the downpipe like 6-8in after turbine outlet. how hot is that coming out of manifold runners what temperature is considered dangerous ?

    you guys have been incredibly helpful i think i thanked most or all of you for your replies. you wont believe the crap i have endured on the forum specific to my car platform everyone is a bunch of jerks and instead of answering my questions about tuning they flame me for asking the questions...

    whats the best way to convert 22psi @ 350 Grams/second into CFM ?

    Higher boost and E85 or Methanol

    i have let go the idea of using methanol how about octane booster how many bottles can i add and what brand. how many bottles would it take to get to 100 octane on 12 gallons.

    Higher boost and E85 or Methanol

    I worded that wrong my thicker gasket lowered compression not raise it. I knew it would lower compression some and was stronger.

    Higher boost and E85 or Methanol

    I was afraid to lower the CR when i built motor and lose power because this Engine platform is VERY VERY hard to get power from the direct injection systems are new to gasoline engines and are mostly applied in diesel applications, I figured mazda made the engine such High CR to make the power...
