legacyurabus Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 shrug, no argument there so lay it down. I like the aquamist systems, but im not dropping 1k for one..... you can run 100% meth or 100% water or any % you want in any of the kits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClimberDHexMods Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 Hard 2 beat this http://www.amazon.com/AEM-30-3000-Gallon-Methanol-Injection/dp/B001DX7K74 Only thing hard to beat about it is price (and a fluid level sensor included). But the variable pump speed--not a pulsating solenoid--and that check valve means the system will lag a bit, and the atomization will suffer at the bottom end a bit. Also the failsafe feature is really lacking relative to "better" more expensive systems. You can either use the failsafe trigger to trip the green test connectors to ground to flip a backup boost map and possibly other maps, or you would need a separate solenoid (not included) to get you instant wastegate spring pressure if the lacking failsafe triggers. I sold an Aquamist 2D recently, and though expensive both in its past and next gen forms, it immediately made sense when I saw all the pieces in person. I looked at piecing together a kit from ebay deals that is similar to it (but without all the failsafes). The pricing might not be too crazy to you once you see the value in it. Subjective. Plenty of people run the very basic AEM and similar systems for years and never have a problem. Others won't touch it, being very loyal to more comprehensive systems like Aquamist. Then some won't touch meth altogether because it one of the more risky things you can put on your car. You could swap up to a bigger turbo and spend the same net once you sell your existing turbo, and have more power without being one leak away from a blown engine. There are thousands of different opinions, so I tried to keep this as black and white as I could for you. A GT30R stock location turbo will get you the win against that GT500 [CENTER][B][I] Front Limited Slip Racing Differentials for the 5EAT now available for $1895 shipped, please inquire for details!

ClimberDHexMods Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 BTW I was thinking, how serious of a driver can a guy be if he buys a convertible? That would of course play in your favor if the Shelby just plum spins. You tell us. Edit: BTW if you get a boost switch and a solenoid, you can make the AEM not have that lag, FWIW. Easy solution to small thing. [CENTER][B][I] Front Limited Slip Racing Differentials for the 5EAT now available for $1895 shipped, please inquire for details!

KurtP Posted May 22, 2010 Author Share Posted May 22, 2010 Im considering going to E85, but I would have to sell my injectors, and the new 1000cc injectors I would need would be expensive, the same price as most meth kits would be. I might just have to get tuned on 100oct and run wut i brung Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

legacyurabus Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 are 850cc injectors big enough for e85? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolksey85 Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 are 850cc injectors big enough for e85? On a 20G, no. 1000s are more like what would be needed. And that's always a good excuse to buy the Bosch's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laverne Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 We have a '10 GT500 in our mustang club, it too is a vert.. And no its not slow. His tags now read GT700 without any real visual changes. Meaning if you didnt know you wouldnt. Anywho, hes in the low 11s on street tires spinning through the traps for the most part. HAsnt had a clean run on radials, but his best spinning through the 1/8 was high tens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleBlueGT Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 dam, guess ill be getting a 100 octane tune and not e85 Just a thought, but think of what E85 costs to buy, and think of what 100 octane costs. Might be worth your while to get the bigger injectors. Full tune of 68HTA, KSTech 73 MAF, Racer X FMIC and ID1000s................by the DataLog Mafia!!!

LosAngelesLGT Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 ya ur right, but i think ill only use that tune on special ocasions:rolleyes: Planning to use a race fuel map once in a blue moon... Sounds disappointing. E85 is the bees knees. Rocks socks. A ride in a HTA68 powered E85 fueled LGT will make you wet yourself. Tank of race fuel = $150 Tank of E85 = $40 'nuff said.

Barrok Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 I think the GT500 would spank you Funny, these types of posts are on IWSTI all the time, and even the pretty modified STi's realize that a 500+hp muscle car will spank em from a roll. Our engines are built for the take off, not necessarily the roll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our engines are built for the take off, not necessarily the roll. That doesnt make any sense, engine was made for take off? You mean light AWD car was made for take off not engine. RWD cars can still take off just as fast if not faster when setup to hook. Ther is literally not benefit to AWD in drag racing when racing a RWD setup for drag racing.

Our engines are built for the take off, not necessarily the roll. If they are racing from 60-150mph, they deserve to have their A$$ handed to them. As speeds increase, actual horsepower and aerodynamics play a MUCH larger roll than horsepower to weight ratio. At less insane speeds, you can play the horsepower to weight card and come out looking pretty good, especially when the other car is traction limited.

Yep, IMO racing from a dig is the only way to tests ones abilities. Some people will say well I wanna know what my car can do but I think its better to know what you and your car can do with you as the driver.
