Anyone using methanol and nitrous

[Smashmix]

I recently got an 88 fox that is a turbo 302 it has a methanol setup that just needs hooked up I wanted to add a small shot to help when launching I've read that you can use both but just wanted to get actual user feedback so any info is greatly appreciated guys

While you're at it, add a line-lock, a trans brake, and a two-step.

[Smashmix]

It has a trans brake and 2 step already ordered the line loc lol

Why couldn't you? Methanol has a roughly 2:1 consumption rate, or half as much BTU's as gasoline does, the advantage being resistance to detonation and it cools the intake charge. Be careful though, if you lean one out it's gonna fuck up a buncha stuff!

Dude, I wouldn't add a damn thing to it, until the car became the limiting factor in your equation.

I just need to get the methonsl setup plumbed in under the hood but im not dure how so guess ill be goin to see brooks soon

Wait. Are you talking about methanol as a fuel, or an injection?

[Smashmix]

Methanol injection sorry should have made that more clear lol corrected the original post

[Sleeper]

Yale, is right. Id get the meth hooked up with the two step and line lock.

I'd just take it to brooks, prob save you some cash in the long run. Learning curves can be expensive, but sometimes worth it.

[Smashmix]

Yeah I was planning on taking to brooks probably next week

having enough flow for alcohol with nos is a real problem, alcohol is CH4O.
It contains oxygen inside it already, addng N2O, adds more o2. There gets to a point where stuff gets too hot and starts to melt. if the car is already on alky fuel, use racegas for the nos setup. just what I think.

I reread your op, are you just trying to cool the turboed air charge with the alky while using nos off the line on racegas?

[Smashmix]

Yeah I think I'm gonna just plumb it in at the throttle body I've heard a lot of good things about using it

[jyro]

make sure it's rich enough and

throw a hobbs switch in there somewhere on the fuel line to the nos.

I use a water/meth mix injected just before the throttle body. Seems to work well at regulating IAT's and added some power to boot. I can make a few back to back passes now without the heat getting out of control.

That's what my plan is glad to hear it works now I'm positive ill just need a retune on my car
