meth injection on a NA car.

[97firehawk]

So what do you all think about meth injection on a NA application I've heard good things it seems like it would help big time on these hot days to drop intake temps .

[DETROITMUSCLE]

IAT temps aren't really hot enough on a n/a car to justify the cost of using it

I was just thinking on a 80/90 degree day it could help for 400 bucks its not to expensive maybe I'm wrong I've herd of guys doing this with big gains just wondering

Its kinda like the first liar dosen't stand a chance, I've heard lots of big gain claims but only way to prove it is on a dyno before and after.

What he said.

The only really positive I could see out of it is the raise in octane would let you add timing and lean on the tune up a little more.

Until the pump stops working and you toast your motor that is...

The claims are 30/40 rwhp NA on the dyno but I haven't seen the sheets so .

The meth itself isnt going to add any power.

I no its not nitrious but what I'm wondering is if on a 90 degree day if it can help drop intake temps cool down the air going into the engine and eliminate power loss .

[c0ncEpT]

Thats not where the power gain is. Sure a cooler charge is going to make more power. The real use for meth is to raise the octane to lean on the tune more.

FI guys use it as a "Safety blanket" But when that pump fails with 15PSI and 24 degrees of timing a ringland isn't going to last long with only 93 octane pump gas.

What I'm trying to say is adding a meth kit isnt going to add much power alone. Leaning on the tune and adding timing is where the power is.

Even then adding a few degrees of timing might not add a lot of power. Where it would help the most is on a high compression motor where you need to keeping timing very low on pump gas to avoid detonation.

well I totally understand what your sayin and I agree with u my cusion and a friend are running meth all I really wanted to no is if I could run it to cool it down on hot hot days to stay consistent thats all really .

In a nutshell - it's not worth it, unless you're running a lot of boost. Don't bother with it if you're NA.

if you decide to do it, i have a "cooling mist" pump and about 3 gallons of meth. i have no need for it so throw an offer. i have no opinion on if you should go with it or not tho

Naw im good I'm planning on nitrous next year .

[97firehawk]

So I talked with one of the 9sec LTX guys and he was thinking the same as me that on a super hot day meth would help a lot to keep the engine running efficient and he reminded me that you can make a kit for pretty cheap it sure has me thinking. All I here on here and other sites is if the weather was cooler I would have been faster well here is the possable fix. I'm not sure why you all were so fast to so no it won't work and I no people use this as a safety blanket but it can be used this way as well think about it it drops intake temps huge everyone nows in cold air are cars rip so if we can cool it down a bit in hot weather same out come rite that's what I'm thinking .

[Gaspo]

makes sense to me. call your tuner, ask what he thinks
