For those with Weistec S/C and meth

For those with Weistec SC and meth, (1) how much did the meth help in reducing IATs? (2) You installed the meth nozzle in the Weistec intake - at that plug location in the intake bend? and (3) What meth vendor kit did you use? Thanks for any help or response.

1) no help at all
2) yes
3) Devils Own

I use meth simply to help compensate for out substandard fuel. Mine is set up to spray conservatively otherwise the AFRs will dip too much

Dam, I was afraid of that.

Do you know if it is possible to move the nozzle to one of the two holes/opening by the map sensor on the weistec intercooler...you think that would then lower IATs?

I don't know. When I had mine installed, I made enquiries with some of the more knowledgeable forum members about nozzle location and followed their advice. If you find a way to use meth to improve IATs, I'd be keen to know about it

You know I don't have the Weistec, but I would imagine there's a similar location as SneakyNeon's that could be used on your setup: right after the intercooler across from the MAP sensor. Mayhaps a bit downstream of the MAP if possible.

Personally I wouldn't touch a Devil's Own kit, the injection method and failsafes on the Aquamist are far superior. With HFS-3 I consistently see IAT's well below ambient when it is injecting. Take out a point of fuel or so depending on W/M ratio and you are good to go.

Those are my two copper.

Yes, but given Weistecs configuration, I have not been able to find that similar location.

I had it, my meth never did help either going through that port in the bend. I switched over to a small wet shot and the iats dropped a ton.

Did you by chance ever consider putting a meht nozzle in one of the two small port/openings in the back by the bypass valve, by the map sensor?

The Allen bolt caps for those two opening are 1/8 NPT, the same as meth nozzles, and looks like the same thread pitch.

Anybody thought about a metal spacer between the intercooler and Weistec sc, like 1/2 or 1 inch, so that you can have ports in that spacer for meth nozzle?

Sounds like a great idea provided there is room.

No real IAT benefit for me but fattened the hell out of the top end mixture.

P'S. My IATs on the dyno were 101-139. I expected it to run hotter. KC/no HE/ trunk tank and meth

Do you mean with the meth nozzle in the elbow, between the TB and SC?

Im looking into the possibility of a spacer between the Weistec SC and intercooler..for the meth nozzle (assuming there is room / not hit the hood). Lets see what happens.

I'll be the guinea pig for putting the meth nozzle by the MAP sensor. We used one of those ports to read boost on the dyno. I will keep you informed.

There is not much air flow in that location. But good luck

I see some reduction in iat spraying pre blower in the supercharger inlet with dual nozzles and 50/50 meth

I may try both: pre blower (inlet elbow) & by the map sensor with dual nozzles. Sounds like a plan!
