alky

[syco 2]

i have a few ques about alky i just got my sy it has 26000 on the odo :rock: and im planing some mods which include a chip-v7 a fuel pump -255 another intercooler and shurflow pump elec fan and a 160 thermostat it has a kennebell cold air a throttlebody airfoil and afpr a 3inch catback with a flowmaster o and i got datamaster on the way i was wondering were can i get an alky injection kit from and how much boost can i run with it also what kind of 1/4 times should i expect before and after thanks.

Holy run on sentence batman!

You can get an alky kit from Razor at www.alkycontrol.com or Steve at www.smcenterprises.com

I recommend the Razor kit. Do a search and you'll find out tons of info. I even posted a pic of how to connect everything in the kit as far as wires go. Pretty easy install.

thanks, also i was wondering how much boost i can runwith it on 93.

 

[SeattleSy#1255]

you could run 12's you could run 14's...all in the tuning.

thanks, also i was wondering how much boost i can runwith it on 93.

You can run up to 22lbs. with the alky kit.Some peeps may run up to 24lbs.
I would expect mid 12's. :2cents:

I stock the Razor kit specific for the syty's. You can order it online at my site. Detroit Turbo price is $25 off retail.

thanks. i was wondering for tuning if rockford racecraft would be a good place to go. im around the chi town area or any others around by me.

I have a water alky kit that I made I’ve never tried straight alky or meth.
I’ve done the 50/50 mix and the washer fluid. The washer fluid seams to work guest as will as the 50/50 home brew and a lot more covenant.
Am I missing out not running straight alky or meth ? Aqua mist recommends a 50/50 mix no more than 50% alky/meth.

Yes you are missing out.

We are running straight meth on a buddies sy, and had up to 27psi of boost on pump gas.

Inlet air temps are about 20 deg above ambient under boost.

We consistantly run 24psi on pump.

Before it had a hard time running 22 on race gas.

If we had a turbo efficient at the higher boost levels we would try more boost with race gas.

I’ll be sure to give it a shot I’m game for more boost!
I’m currently running 20 psi with 22 deg total timing and no knock. Why dose Aqua mist recommend 50/50 mix fire hazard maybe? When you guys run the big boost like that where is you total timing?

No.

Take it to Ivan at Sound Performance.

Because aqua mist pumps can't handle meth, let along 100%

I am running 22-23 deg on a stock sy here running meth on pump.

i got my alky installed.
And since i ain''t in the USA, i got a qeustion

Meth= methanol
Alky = ethanol

What is exactly the differnce in using those 2?

if you start to tune , would it be wise to start with 50% water/50% meth?
straight meth?

Thanks

Well, I've run both denatured alky and methanol. Denatured is mostly ethanol with some methanol mixed in (which is why they call it "de"natured). I've been able to run 26psi on both, they have very similar cooling characteristics, but the biggest difference is price. The denatured in the states runs about 10-14 per gallon. The methanol is about $2-4 per gallon. Denatured also has a pretty bad smell to it, where methanol is virtually odorless. That's nice for setups like mine where the alky container is inside the cabin.

As far as tuning, you're best bet is to just go 100%, with no water. But it all depends on what you're shooting for. I could get about 22psi out of a 50/50 mix, but 26 psi on a 100% setup. My AFR is really rich, which is left to my tuning, but it seems to yield the best results.
