Thanks fellas. You two are always most helpful. I appreciate it a lot. I opened the link in my browser window and I’ll go back and read it this evening when I’m winding down. Thx.

Hi Kfxguy
sorry bringing this back up, but did you use the cortex with water/meth in the end? When I bought the cortex I also bought the meth module with it.
regards

Not sure what you're looking for but I turn my single nozzle snow kit on at 4-5 lbs , started there to keep it safe and never found a reason to raise it . Snow' s large nozzle 625m/min I think . Homemade 50/50 W/M , 6L. Not progressive, just on or off

I tried single hit with 3psi pressure switch and you could feel it deaden the power and that was with 50/50 snow juice. I moved onto the AEM progressive controller and it’s so much better and now I spray wiper fluid around 725ml and it’s been like that for years. Logs don’t show a ton of heat drop from the IAT sensor but in reality it’s stupid slow but it does show 10* or so over a 5s pull or so.

ive also tried pre turbo and pre supercharger injection on a dual nozzle system and never saw a real benefit. On the centri it was to help cool the supercharger head unit which gets pretty warm. One thing I learned is that on a turbo you have to be careful bc the compressor blades are moving so fast the injection actually explodes on contact with the blades (like cavitation) and will eat and destroy the compressor blades. I didn’t spray long enough on the turbo or supercharger enough to notice once I didn’t notice a big enough drop in housing temps.

Spraying at 3 psi doesn't make much sense. Not very surprising it would soften down low.
