Hey I know this is an old thread but I'm currently in the market for a new clutch setup. I ran the stock clutch disc/pressure plate with the Fidanza lightweight flywheel for over 5 years and it has done very well at modest torque numbers. However when increasing boost and timing I've had it slip...

Does Methanol have a higher octane than Ethanol? Stoichiometrically, the AFR for Methanol is richer than Ethanol, but I've been dialing in my MAF curve on straight 94 pump gas, and then plugging in corresponding values into my tune from the Scalar Cheat Sheet (originally posted on the other...

I agree 100%. I'm just not sure if a 20% methanol mix will be enough to completely eliminate knock with my BNR S4 v3 nearly maxed out at 450 whp. I guess I'll have to do some tuning to find out what percentage of in tank methanol will satisfy :D From what I remember on Tuned By Nishan's...

If I remember correctly some stated that 2 gallons of in tank methanol provided more octane than 3 gallons of e85 based on less knock observed. I believe it was @phate; that carried out tests with the seals/o-rings in our stock fuel system, where they were soaked in 93 pump gas mixed with...

Hey everyone, for those of us without access to E85, In Tank Methanol seems to be the next best thing, and aside from Methanol being more corrosive than Ethanol, low concentrations have been proven to increase octane very well without any issues. I had been running 2 gallons of In Tank Methanol...

Thanks I did just that. I increased the delay on the AEM failsafe from 300 ms to 400 ms, and it no longer triggers the Guardian Angel. I will slowly bring it lower and lower until I find the magic delay number. I'd rather have the shortest delay possible in case the aux fuel setup fails. I see...

That's interesting, I was just curious whether the S4 is more susceptible to smoking with a catless exhaust, because I know it is with high crankcase pressure. I did a leak down test a month ago, and with the engine hot each cylinder had less than 3% leakage. This makes me think my ring lands...

So now with the new rebuild has the smoke stopped?

Oh so the valve seals didn't fix it eh? Were you catted at the time? Did you get to a point where you just decided to live with the smoking on decel?

Hey man, I have the same turbo and I'm experiencing the same issue. My guess is that with my 3" catless exhaust, oil is being pulled past the turbo seal, mainly during high rpm deceleration due to a lack of back pressure, although I'm not entirely sure. Smoking at WOT has been greatly reduced...

Hey everyone, I've just recently installed the SP63 6th port aux fuel injection kit into the car. Started tuning and so far so good with no fuel leaks, good low side fuel pressure, and nice cool bat's (mixing 2 gallons of in tank meth). I decided to install a fuel pressure gauge, oil pressure...

Awesome, that seems to be the most promising setup for your higher hp goals. For me I just want 5th/6th port to lower my IDC's. I'm stock block so no more than 380 whp for now. Hopefully the DW65c won't crap out at that power level. I'm on the fence about whether I should go with the kozmic kit...

Good to hear :) Did u ever end up crushing the pressure regulator inside the tank?

Congrats on getting your fueling sorted out! I might have missed it in the earlier posts, but what did you do to maintain good fuel pressure with the PI setup?
