TURBO6.0L

I am looking at putting methanol injection on a 2002 TA with newer style STS kit. Was wondering where others have put the nozzle since it is all silicone after the MAF to the throttle body? I attached a pic for reference. Also does anyone have any pics of their installs? Looking for pump location and such. Thanks

can you drill and tap the throttle body anywhere. It seems like the only place after your MAF that it would fit.

I will have to take a look but I am thinking not.

you can put it on the silicone hose. Just put washer on each side of the silicone tube so that it doesnt pull through then put some red loctite on the nut so that it doesnt back off.

That will hold up to 15lbs of boost?

just make the hole for the nozzle a tad smaller than the nozzle itself where you have to actually push the nozzle through the silicone, when you tighten the nut down (with the washers on each side) it will squeeze/compress the silicone even tighter around the meth nozzle.

Does it matter if I go with snow or alkycontrol? There nozzle designs look a little different. Also what does inside mount vs outside mount refer too for the nozzle? Thanks again.

If your going to mount it in the silicone elbow use nylon washers and a nylon nut. I also use a touch of super glue on the nut as lock tight.

So with the snow setup I would use nuts and washers to mount the nozzle and would then connect the nozzle holder?

Any help would be appreciated. Anyone got any pics?

curious, what did you get done?

Funny this was almost 3 years ago. I went with alkycontrol kit and installed the nozzle in the silicone elbow. He uses a combination of washers and a nut to sandwich the elbow between them. The kit has held up fine with no issues. I don't put many miles on it though and probably on have put 3 gallons through the system. No complaints.

Are you running without MAF? If not the nozzle needs to be after the MAF or it will get damaged. Forgive me if you already knew this.

Devil's own and snow sell mounts to do what you are wanting. Inside mounts means that you install the nozzle from the inside, and outside installs from the outside.

yeah, ive decided to go Speed density for my upcomeing tune so im not worried about that

You should be pretty impressed with improvements. I added my kit mostly for safety so only made small changes to tune to get AFR where it needed to be without adding more boost. I have not been back on the dyno to see the actual HP improvements it made but it was significant enough that I break traction a lot sooner and can really feel it. I really didn't expect that kind of gain. One of these days I am going to make the switch to SD to see If I like it better. I already have the 2 bar sensor that came with the alkycontrol kit I can use so just have to hook it up and spend a ton of time dialing things in.

thats what i plan for mine too. the tuner at the dyno shop was pleased when i mentioned that i was gonna run water/meth with my turbo setup.

IF you are running meth, it wouldn't be a bad idea to move the nozzle back towards the turbo. A long straight run of pipe would be good for atomizing the fluid.
