NICE! Have you had her on the dyno yet since adding the meth? Your IAT's are going to love it...

I run water or water/alky injection on all my pump gas forced induction builds. Very good idea. You plan on running straight water or a water/alky mix?

I haven't had it back on the dyno yet since I just got it installed this past weekend. I am going to try and get it back on the dyno for some fine tuning sometime over the next 2 weeks. I will post results once this is done.

I run a 50/50 mix of water and methanol.

Looks great! When you post your results, let us know how your setup works with one/both nozzles and which percent they're driven.

Thats an awesome setup Ive been using water/meth for about 4 years now on turbo cars it works awsome. How are you controlling the spray boost, maf voltage, or IDC? They have a slew of new controllers out these days that can do all kinds of mapping. I always used Aquamist jets on my systems since they seem to have the best atomization.

Side note: Have you ever had issues with the hardline fuel lines mated directly to the motor? Ive always worried about the vibration causing stress in the fittings and leading to leaks.

I cannot choose one or two nozzles. It always uses both nozzles to spray.

The spray is controlled using the Snow Controller and is based on boost to control flow. The curve starts at 3 pounds of boost (about 10% flow) and increases until it hits 100% flow at 12 pounds.

I check the connectors every few months and tighten them if required. I have never had an issue with the lines.
