Holy crap! There goes my summer vacation money!

And it will help with carbon build up on the valves! Sign me up! Any one know where I can get methanol in Germany!

Just use windshield wiper fluid rated to -32°C (-25°F) it has 30% methanol in it. You can bump up the mix by adding in HEET which is pure methanol intended to clean out your fuel lines and keep them from freezing.

I was able to get meth from a speed shop in Wiesbaden IIRC (could have been Mainz). I don't know if they are there still. It was a small place right outside of a Ford body shop that did some work on my S/C Focus- I was a 50/50 mix IIRC, came in gallon jugs- very expensive.

Like Adam mentioned, you should be able to get neg30 WW fluid anywhere in DE, that's what I used on my last S/C Mustang. it was 1.99 a gallon!

Your car is going beast mode! I'm waiting to see how that big snail treats you down low, it's on my list as a probable.

I'll claim the first Full E85 Oxford White EBM with port injection and build date of 05/05/2015

Not going to lie, seeing it work so well for you is giving me much more confidence in my setup. I trust Adam (obviously) but I don't always trust the car to do what we want.



We shall find out. I just filled my tank with E85 and am waiting to scoot out of work to do some test pulls

I still have stock turbo, stock bottom end and am coming from E30.

I'm hoping to gain a little bit, I've only trapped 112-113 and I'd like to get into the 116-118 range with this and the ATM intercooler.

Then I'm going to add a big turbo.

The FFTEC kit is laggy with the 8374EFR on it. They are using a T4 twin scroll housing with an open scroll manifold (adapter). It takes about 2100rpm's worth of full throttle to get it to hit 25psi.

Its a bit laggy for sure, not horrible but noticeable.

The Mani and turbo are both single scroll BTW. T3 .83 A/R, think I wrote it was a T4 on accident at some point.

Gotcha, then even worse it should be spooling much faster!

Two 1150cc injectors. Using a Split Second box to control it.

WhAt brand of injector ?

It's too bad about the goofy turbo/manifold deal on these cars. Individual O2 sensors per runner should immediately show any distribution issues.

You can get someone of an idea by ignition corrections If one isn't getting enough fuel it will potentially knock and make corrections especially with high K/A this car is set with.

True, that will help.

Unfortunately we got rained for most of today. Weather is supposed to clear Saturday, hopefully we'll be able to dial it in then! Then it'll be off to the dyno to see what's cook'n.

Just a little update, slow going because of weather and my schedule. But we are up to 27 psi now. The car likes to try and get sideways when boost hits in third. Also we are making nearly 24 psi at 4k when we were only hitting 20 before.

I like everything you just said.

I have to admit, I am embarrassingly aroused reading this:love:

We need to get this thing on a dyno, it has to be making retarded power.

Unfortunately it looks like because the turbo is flowing so much air the intake coupler collapsed and was suffocating the car.

New coupler ordered, and more stuff later.
