Gained 70 rwhp with meth - Page 3 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

They way mine is setup, there's a rocker switch that powers the kit and runs to a relay/DPDT that is attached to several resistors in a few different sensors. (I'm not sure which ones I think there are 4) When I throw the rocker it tricks the car into reading a lower IAT and increasing the timing, not much jsut a little. I make about 15 more RWHP with it on and do run a bit faster in the quarter mile. The real benefit comes on longer runs. After 30 minutes of hard driving I can put my hand on the blower and it's cold to the touch.

How in the world is your blower cold after 30 minutes? I use meth @1psi full @3psi and the hood is so hot it's uncomfortable.

might need to make sure everything is working properly... mines is cool to the touch after a a good 6 runs with my meth setup..

Ok I have a question for Ted from Jannetty.

On a stock motor, I plan on Kooks LT or SLP LT headers, High flow cats and full exhaust with X pipe (have not decided who on the exhaust).

Being that the only high octane available to me is 91 octane, would meth be the answere to a higher octane level for a daily driver or can a tune net me the results W/O meth?

What about when I get the funds to do a S/C after these mods?

Everything's working perfect.. Just don't see how a maggie will ever beat cold to the touch. Thing is usually burning.

okay, I have another question. Since the meth injection nozzle is supposed to be mounted after the maf/iat sensor to avoid issues with contaminating the sensor how does the ecu receive the correct iat since the water/meth is being injected after the iat sensor?

I've always wondered the specifics of this too when tuning for meth power....

I know Ted tuned me without the meth and we just use it as a safety for my bad fuel down here.

The engine in its stock or near stock N/A form there is not much to be gained with extra octane maybe 10 hp on 93 vs 91.

You just need to tune for it. I personally use it more for safety factor than power. You never know what you are pumping in to your tank, even it says 91 or 93 octane.

I'm going to be doing the Alky Control system on mine shortly, but I am doing if for safety over looking for the big numbers
