Watch this before installing water methanol injection | fullBOOST

[@Fix_It_Again_Tony]

I suspect starting out with e85 really limits any benefit from the bolt on approach. Especially if it is already tuned a bit rich. If you were using 98 RON (93 AKI) maybe there would be more of a difference due to cooling effects of vaporizing the water/meth. I think you kind of hinted at this in the middle of the video. It would be interesting to see this on a less optimized setup. I am thinking a street car where to owner has changed nothing hardware wise and the only other mod is a tune using an off the shelf map. Now the stock turbo is running farther from it's peak efficiency, and the stock intercooler is getting heat soaked quickly. This probably better approximates the situation most people watching this find themselves in. For this to work in a bolt on way the charge air temperature would need to be pretty high. 44.3 °C coming out of the intercooler isn't that high.

[@timspicer6444]

i dont know why i even watched the video after you said you wouldnt adjust the tune to suit in injection. next video you should adjust the tune to suit

Hi TIM just saw this its same for a prop elevation changes it

[@francocozzo7235]

I've had a PWM controlled water methanol injection setup on a modified turbo diesel hatch, with it added without being tuned for it, the car picked up 7KW at the front wheels on the dyno just having the 49/51 mix of water/methanol spraying into the intake. The nozzle was too small though and it wasn't enough spray for the engine. Works really well on diesel.

[@MyLonewolf25]

Diesel is a complete different animal to gas engines and are fuel modulated not throttle like gas engines

[@streamylc]

It works incredibly well on any forced induction vehicle not running E85 either... this video is incredibly misleading

[@pospc2]

I once ran a car that wasn't tuned for meth or e85 with WMI and about 30% e85 in the tank. It actually ran amazingly well with a noticeable gain in power and reduction in 0-60. The fuel trims were actually good (-7% short, -2% long) timing advance stayed higher overall. I was running about 50% meth. Boost temps dropped to nearly ambient. I was using a snow stage 2 progressive kit, didn't have it full duty cycle. I set spray to start at 2psi max at 50psi. Most boost the car saw was 15psi. So as you can tell it never went full duty cycle. Just putting my experience out there.

[@A2J_Tim]

I dont know to much about e85, but I do know that on a pump gas vehicle you wouldnt see such drastic power drops from adding water meth with out the tuning, in fact you barely notice the power drop at all and its a great mod to ensure that you dont get knock when pushing the car to the limit. I have been running meth injection kits for 20 years and its amazing how much boost you can run on pump gas.

[@hybiepoo]

I built my own water/meth system for my paxton windsor. I run 50:50 water/meth. I think common sense (which is not too common) tells you that you are not going to get any gains from bolting this on alone, because the true benefits come from the fact you can push the tune harder. It's kinda like switching to E85 and not tuning. Adding the methanol means you're going to be running richer right off the bat as well, so doing it without tuning is a bit silly unless you were lean to start with. The reason that the water is used is because the cylinder quenching properties of the water is way higher than methanol alone. The energy obsorbed by water changing state from liquid to gas is way higher, so it can absorb a lot more heat in the cylinder than methanol can. But methanol evaporates very easily, so gives good cooling of the intake charge before it reaches the cylinder. It also increases the octane over pump fuel. My intake temps on a run before meth would go above 70 (only 10 psi boost), and after adding water/meth the intake temp drops to just over 30 degrees and stays there.

[@BroomysGarage]

You’d be surprised how many people out there would bolt one of these on without changing anything else haha. TOONER.

This is exactly the kind of comparison I have been looking for. All of the other water / meth installs I've seen involve a new tune before the next dyno.

[@200mphgt40]

Well, the answer was as expected. Make with part 2 already where you actually tune it. I've got some circuit race track results of water/meth injection on my channel for a completely different setup. 4cyl, 11.5:1 compression, 10psi inefficient roots blower and tiny factory intercooler...on pump 98. Water meth works very well in keeping power consistent lap after lap. I added 4 deg timing (28 deg total) and trim fuel out around 12% when injecting 50/50 meth water. This on a 300HP (CRANK) motor with 300cc min wm injection rate (measure, not claimed nozzle rate).

I think it depends on what ECU you’re running. I’ve dynoed my Mazda Cx7 (same engine as Mazda 3/6 MPS) and saw a 5 -6hp gain all across the rev range when it was on factory setting (unflashed) running a small 63cc jet. Seems like the ecu detects the cooler air and runs more timing (u can evidently see 1-2 degrees more). Running 50/50 mix.

Ive used methanol in this way before many times. To make any decent power you really need to substitute a large portion of your base fuel with some decent flowing jets. Most guys just go to a dedicated secondary fuel system with injectors these days. A basic small aftermarket W/M kit is only going to give average gains. Tuning is 100% needed.

[@shenaniganshop3309]

For sure, imo water meth is a great bandaid for people that want more power on pump gas and don’t have access to e85.

[@AtticAZ]

You won’t lose power if you have a car that runs a variable timing system, such as the 2015+ Mustangs. The OAR if the tune is set correctly can add up to 6 additional degrees of timing if it sees that fueling is good.

[@DaFeLaTV]

i did do a dyno test on my scirocco 160 hp with water meth 50 to 50 without any software programmiing... got a gain from 29 HP

[@larsjrgensen5975]

The intercooler is already enough and there is fuel enough to cool, so knocking or hot intake air is not a problem on this build. The kit should help if running on a stock setup with boost turned up, the now undersized intercooler with a undersized turbo leaving its most efficient work area and fuel injectors that can not spray more to cool everything down again.

[@Saddedude]

Use a wideband for tuning. It reads in lambda and doesnt care what fuel(s) are being burned. Interested in a pt2 where you tune for it.

[@waynesanders1406]

The best expression of a water methanol/water injection setup is going to be on a large diesel engine, especially a turbo setup. Diesels are monitoring NOx and add more fuel to use it as coolant to keep things cool to reduce NOx, so it also improves MPG as well as power.

[@crispycris]

Yes please do another video where you tune it for the same ratios. Ie 100% water etc.. I just hooked up my 100% water system today. Still need to test. Pre-compressor BTW.

[@DanielWraps]

With the right piggyback or ECU tune and proper WMI injection kit, you can increase power by 50 or more whp.

[@Akya2120]

Ethanol and methanol are very similar and you already get the benefits from water meth with E85. If you did this with gasoline your results would be different but you'd still want tuning to get the most out of it.

[@connclark2154]

probably would have worked better if they didn't inject the water 3 inches before a bend in the pipe too. I think they are over spraying.

[@craracer0505]

Looks like water/meth is not the effective when running E85 which is mostly alcohol already. I'd like to see this test with pump gas, the results would be a lot different.

[@T25Accent]

What interests me about this is, your tune stays constant. But if someone is running a turbo car with a factory ECU, they usually lose power because the factory ECU will pull timing. But if they want to turn up the boost and add water/meth injection wouldn't the factory ECU add timing back in? Also less chance of detonation I would think.

[@snivesz32]

They should revisit this and find MBT with WMI on/off. Or achieve MBT and then increase boost until reaching knock limit. That would show the true potential of WMI.

Commenting from 2022 i'm surprised nobody mentioned the cost benefits... a 3 dollar bottle of washer fluid will last a full tank of fuel, so you could theoretically run regular lower cost 87 octane and use water/meth to make up the difference, which is still cheaper than using higher octane fuel to start with..

[@danielspencer486]

Now is this comparable to a car on 98 running the different injection set-ups?, being that e85 already has cooling properties, would you say the power loss would be less seeing as alot of stock ecu's pull timing with temp and if you run water/meth it's going to keep it nice and cool and at its best all year around? I don't disagree that to make the most you need a tune though, love the video guys keep up the good work!!

[@greenspotconstruction5003]

What this shows is your custom tune is running as rich as possible which isn't normal unless you are running a dyno to meticulously tune it that way. This also shows you are probably missing potential where if fell off when you were running 100% methanol. Perhaps this is because the higher octane of the methanol having benefits at higher rpm? Perhaps you aren't advanced enough on your current fuel? Which would also prevent any gains. An engine with a knock sensor and self advancing timing would pay off or if you were more aggressive with your timing im general. If you think about it, the water is also offsetting the air in the chambers which is further enriching your fuel. So you have a few things that most people wouldn't be facing, 1. Fully saturated air to fuel ratio, 2. you are probably dumping a little extra fuel past saturation to mitigate heat that the cooling system cant handle, 3. Loosing boost from lower exhaust gas pressure. So you are half right. MOsT people would benefit only those who are tuned to the gills should have a negative effect.

i should add that your point about tuning is accurate though you won't see the full effects unless you tune but that can be said about any modification.

[@spiKey0svetlana]

E85 is a race fuel. Most ppl and car enthusiasts are running petrol. So I think that by lowering the intake temps you will gain power. Because think of summer. The intercooler cant lower temps below ambient. Do a couple of hard runns and you get hest soak. ESPECIALLY with a smaller turbo turned up high. The air charge will go up to 50C and more. The ECU is simply going to detect knock and retard timing thus you loose power. So cooling air charge even without writing it into the map is effective in my opinion. Also any change in air fuel ratio is going to be detected by the o2 sensor and ECU compensate. Also if you write the w/m into the map you will have to be careful not to end up with an empty w/m reservoir.

No follow up on this? The water/meth also saturates the IAT sensor and reports false "over cool" readings that don't represent the actual charge temp as a whole. So we can't use the data provided by thermistor type temp probes. If the reported numbers were true, methanol inj would be more efficient than the typical A2A intercoolers. Which isn't the case, proven by power output VS IAT on the dyno. Without the common distribution issues, I'd think a rotary could go extremely far with a TON of methanol injection directly in each runner. While I Don't think you need much additional timing, you could run a much healthier amount of boost.
