I think its running really Good for a Sub Zero ground its -11 here today, Roads have salt on them and its still basicly stock other then a Really good Tune and we are still playing with it, I think a 3.5 is deffinetly doable I did run a 3.7 but i cant find the file so the 3.8 will have to stand for now.

Eric you can add this to the performance list!

Big thanks to EPL for helping me tune this Bad boy!

DAMN !!! I need me one of them toys ! and damn fast car you've got...... how often do you find you need to fill up the meth ? Did you do the stage 3 kit ? and can you get 100 octane up there ? I do a mixed tank of 100 and 93 every Friday with a 3 0z shot of Aces, switch to the APR Ecu 100 octane setting and then hope for an "encounter" with something fast...... hopefully in the morning tomorrow, we're supposed to be back into the high 40's again.....can't imagine the extra boost 50 degrees colder !

I also can't imagine how fast Speedtrapped's car will end up being....... wheeeeeee !!!!!

Cheers ~

Stick it on your windshield, plug it in, make sure you have a signal (might take a few minutes). When you see your MPH come up on the left side, you have a signal. Push in your SD card if you want to record it. Just drive and it will record everything you do.

i have gone through a Jug already but that was a Very spirited drive LOL

We have 894 here and i haven't got my Aces yet so that's all that is in it till i do get it.
As for the stage 3??? nope its the Aquamist kit ! size fits all.


Guys thanks for the thumbs up.

Mike you were spot on with the EPL tune buddy. It is very tuneable and rocks!

I will post more data soon eg: Dyno and more 0-60
there is a 3.5 in this thing i know it!

You may want to go over 60 to make sure you dont lift before. I hit 70 then let off. Its a rush i will tell yea!

And dont worry if you dont get it the first time, Keep going and do it again, It will display your best time.

That is quick, seriously quick! Could you do a 0-100 mph run as well?

You guys are using windshield washer fluid? I thought you were running 100% meth? You are leaving power on the table if you are not using 100% meth.

My thoughts as well. If your going to go with a "meth" tune, what's the point in just washer fluid. Now for me, I don't want to have to worry about running out of fluid, so I will not be getting a "meth" tune. Yes leaving power on the table, but also I won't care if I run out.

I will certainly! I wanted to do it today but the roads are bad again, and they will be for the next 2-3 days.

But i might give it a shot in the snow LOL

Please explain. Meth is to be cut 50/50 correct? I was told you cant run straight. Plus it is a bit hazardous if there is leak?

But i did find a -49 one yesterday..

I've been running straight meth in my Turbo since day one. VP's M1 Methanol. Aquamist kit is good for it. No problems. 100% meth gives you better octane AND cooling than WW fluid. No more hazardous than that big tank of gasoline under your ars...

The car just keeps getting Faster! Went out to do a 0-100 and the roads had me hanging on to the Wheel to control the car. So I ended up doing a few 0-60 and did 2 3.8 and then a 3.7. I think I should hit a 3.5 very soon!!!

If you run straight 100% meth you need a realt tune for the setup. If you just add straight meth to a car it will add 'knock' and comp will cut down tuning. More fuel is always needed when full meth is being used

Methanol IS fuel. Your A/F will drop about a point if you run 100% meth. You are adding octane AND a cooling medium by spraying 100% meth. You are 100% correct when you say you need a tune to support 100% meth injection.

I could see if you were mixing Methanol with your fuel directly but if your doing a light spray in your intake to get the cooling and a slight Octane boost then I wouldn't think you would need a special tune. I would think that you could do a special tune to advance your boost or timing at the point of injection but I wouldn't think it would be needed?

Well, IMO, typically the reason you USE Meth, is to add timing and/or add boost or both, in which case, a tune is needed. If you just wanted octane, there are other products available to give you that edge, if you just want cooling, you can just spray water, in which case no tune is needed, usually, as you are looking to mitigate knock only.
