you gotta run several checks and balances to safely run the meth.
Does your meth kit compensate for boost pressure? Think about it:
As boost pressure increases, pressure difference between the water/meth pump and intake pressure decreases. This leads to less water/meth introduced at higher boost pressures. I found the way to solve this the easiest is to do a mini return style fuel system with a fuel pressure regulator referenced to the intake pressure. Use a fuel solenoid to control water/meth
those shitty glass inline fuses always breakk. either from constant tempature changes it get brittle & like u said the vibrations.....your running 35.lbs on what size turbo and what kind of power u making with that ..kudos on the build... i like!
@S13noGRIP I did'nt mean to run 35. Its L28et turbo 2.8 inline 6 from 81-83 nissan 280zx turbo cars. 400ish at the wheels at 25psi. I have a dyno video also hint hint
@olderthanme turbos still good, pistons broke and was spitting it out the intake as much as in. I drove it like 10 min this way, I have a video of that also.
That fricken sucks Phil at least you got better luck than I do with my 280zx turbo my exhaust leaves a black splat on the side walk everytime I leave it to warm up mostly black smoke when I start it. And that's not even the rest of the problems lol.
Ain't that a bitch. It's always something so small and annoying that causes a big problem. I'm still amazed how far this car has come since back in the day. 30psi O_O, you're getting close to what my Cummins pushes, lol. Beastly. Keep her alive Phil.

This is the problem with water/methanol injection. I have seen this happen several times.

How did oil get into the intake tubes? Sounds like the turbo....

S14? I would after you get the meth fixed I would push and mess with some 30psi just for fun!
