Methanol 4.0

What kind of vehicle is this?

 

I hope so. Trunk mount is the only other option and I really don’t feel like routing hoses that far.

Lexus LS430

 

I know there’s a little bit of love for the 2uz on TW. I don’t have that, but I do have the younger weaker sister, the 3uz.

 

Ahaa I see it also says don't use the tape I recommended to you. But it's fine, I wonder if Snow just means the white tape that passes itself off as teflon....

 

I'm running almost 700ml/min and there have been no issues with quenching at useable RPMs.

I did tune it on the dyno though, and dialed it back slightly to optimize how much power and torque it was making. However the power losses where it was before and after were slight.

 

Thats what im thinking. Either way, it did the trick when i was having nothing but leaks with only e6000. Also dialed my start boost psi to 5 and full at 7 (my peak is 8 on snows gauge) and my meth consumption has gone down alot. I just had it coming on too early it seems

 

Sweet. Glad to read it, it would be annoying to fill the reservoir up more than every couple hundred miles, which is where I was at before it got all wintry. Now I'm hardly filling it at all because I just can't get that hard on the accelerator.

 

ECU wont correct AFR in open loop.

 

I think snow just wants to promote their glue. Tape is more likely to jam things up done incorrectly in theory. I'm surprised you had leaks with the glue. I haven't had issues with it. Glad to learn the tape is an option!

 

@rjbiii, are you using a balance setting of boost and efi on your gauge or only boost? I'm just guessing away with my settings. Dialing mine back too.

 

@Athlaos, do you think I can step up to a #4 nozzle?

 

Using just boost right now, but eventually i will use both, just waiting to wire that up until i put bigger injectors in so i dont have to cut my factory wiring.

Are you running the ovtune?

 

Yes on the ovtune. You dont need to cut any wires. Just a t-tap works fine. Just pick the center injector on the passenger bank. Super simple.

 

Does that damage the insulation on the wiring at all? Or how do these work, not familiar with t-taps

 

@White lightning boosted
I think some guys have bought a maf wiring extension from URD (not sure if anyone else sells them) that is plug and play and then tap into that if you are worried about splicing into factory wiring. T-taps usually just pierce the insulation at a small pin point so do not really damage the insulation but some taps pinch the wire with a flat edge that does cause damage to the insulation.

Personally, I'd order the extension harness and splice and solder the wire you need.

 

Yes sir, I do have the MAF extension harness as well, but I don't believe there is a wire you can tap into to use that with the stage 3 controller.. I need to tap into the injector wiring, and I do have some extension harnesses for those, but I have to wait until I install the bigger injectors to use them.. I believe the stage 3 uses either boost or EFI pulse width to help you dial it in

 

So the tap would be temporary then? I'd find a decent t-tap that has a needle point and use that.

 

Yes, tap would be temporary. Ill see if I can find a good one like you mentioned with a point. If I cant, I will probably just wait, should have the UCon here in a week or so. May just use the boost to activate it until the bigger injectors get installed. Seems to be working well so far

 

Big plans! I would hold off to get it all done at once. Gonna be crazy once u get her going and all the tweaks done with the Ucon and meth controller!

 

Yes sir! Should be interesting to see what it does once the UCon can move AFRs back into the 11s. Should make a bit more power
