Ah I'm in Sydney and we had myth busters on

Was a good watch anyway

41hp and 44ftlbs gain on a 572 chev from 108 race gas to 95ron and meth injection.

Dodge charger with a pro charger similar gains on same boost 40deg f reduction in intake temps

Got an AEM 30-3001 water meth kit coming. Uses a 5 Gallon tank (almost 20L) so im planning to mount that under the tray.

Has adjustments for when the injection comes on and full boost so the spray ramps up.

Took advantage of 15% off coupon on ebay so it was only $540 delivered.

Holy Fu$k that is a yooge tank.

Mine is only the little one just under 5 litres and it lasts for ages at the drags.

The pumps in the snow kit I have is identical, and the controller operates similar also. It has a boost reference, and two dials. the First one is the boost level trigger and starts the pump at about 10% duty, then the second dial is max boost (controller only goes to 19psi) but will be running 25psi shortly. and the Controller adds duty to the pump proportionally. I love it man. Keeps the motor clean inside too. Stops alot of the carbon puss building up. Water meth and a catch can would keep those shiny built engines looking mint. It did keep my stock motor alive when I started learning to tune. Pulled it down when I put my built engine in and looked perfect.

I liked the idea of a larger tank. Doing basic sums gives me 30mins at full boost of water meth.

Another guy here has a big tank in the boot of his BF F6. Has driven from Mackay to Brisbane powercruise (900+km), run it at powercruise then drove back home without filling the tank.

That's huge

When are you Installing it?

So I am gathering that Dave Sheehy will be tuning this then or is there a good tuner a Mackay's RDP?

A mate and I will hopefully be down from Townsville later in the year for our touch up (and new) tunes with his FG XR6T with the GT3540 and my F6X.

Need to look at dates for the Mackay track to be open at the same time when we are there!

Was it from Horsepower TV? Think I've seen it before?

This may be it-

Dave will be tuning it. Just need to get my valve springs done first and the water meth fitted. Went water meth to protect motor and help reduce the heat from the small turbo (gtx3576r on .82 housing)

Let me know when you plan to head down here.
