    Been running an AEM kit for about a year now. Not hard to tune for, works awesome. It allowed me to reduce IDC's, lean out the AFR and add a boatload of timing. All of that means tons more power. Worth every penny, all day, any day.

    This kit works on both professional and daily driven vehicles. However you will typically see a larger benefit from more modified vehicles.

  • @383mazda
    @383mazda 10 лет назад +13

    The knock suppression ability also let's you run a leaner mixture as well as more timing. Rather than running rich for the "cooling effect" of the extra gas you can rely on the water/meth mixture to keep temps in check. Water takes a lot more energy (heat) to vaporize than gas. But of course most tuners heads explode when you tell them you want to run leaner than 12:1 in a turbo application with water/meth injection...

    • @MikoMuru
      @MikoMuru 7 лет назад +1

      rimwrecka100590 general consensus is to stay at less than 12.8 afrs for turbo applications to avoid knock. This is because it is difficult for someone to grasp temperature differences of the airfuel mixture. Basically, they are relying too much on afrs to gauge how much more boost or timing one can run.

  • @AEMpowerTVelectronics
    @AEMpowerTVelectronics  11 лет назад +3

    Yes the kit can be used with just water. On a gasoline engine you would like to have a 50/50 mix of water/meth however on a diesel it sees less benefit from Methanol and can be used with just water with nice gains.

    What controls the amount of methanol? Is the manually controlled via a button or switch like nos or is it running all the time and adjusts to the throttle?

    • @JP-hr3xq
      @JP-hr3xq 10 лет назад

      Yes. As in: it depends on how it was set up. The cheaper/easier system would be always on (above certain RPM), but if you really want to feel special, you could have a system designed (and an ECU programme created) that would allow you to manually turn it on and off. NOS systems can be used the same way. Outside of drag racing, low-pressure NOS systems slowly deliver NO2 for the entirety of a multi-lap race. NOS and Water/Meth injection can work in much the same way in this case. In fact, NOS provides better cooling.

    @sergsrt8 Detonation can result in a pretty catastrophic failure, but the damage is done by multiple, small events, not one huge explosion in a cylinder. Think of it more like it's chipping away at the ring land or dome of the piston. Either way when a piston lets go, it's a big deal!

  • @IsleOfFeldspar
    @IsleOfFeldspar 2 года назад

    I want to use this for my 20yr old Subaru H6. I know its got a carbon problem because I get detonation (with 93 octane gas) over 2400 rpm when under load if the temperature is over 40F outside. I get no detonation in cool rainy conditions when the rain is a superfine mist. Most of the time it runs too hot and eats up spark plugs too soon. Why would I pay for a complete rebuild on a car worth $1500 when water/meth will most likely fix the problem? But I have no idea where to put the nozzle when I buy it.

  • @AEMpowerTVelectronics
    @AEMpowerTVelectronics  13 лет назад

    The methanol has two roles in the injection system. It does cool the intake charge, but it also increases the octane level of the fuel as well.

  • @AEMpowerTVelectronics
    @AEMpowerTVelectronics  12 лет назад

    Yes, but you would need to do individual cylinder injection points and also have it completely programmable in RPM and load. At that point you would be much better off just running pure methanol in your vehicle as your fuel. This must be tuned of course

    @mrxbrightside mostly turbo/supercharged cars because they are prone to more heat and detonation. but if you have a highly modified NA with very High compression pistons then it will help stop detonation. the old hotroders from the 1950s used to use this system to stop detonation so its nothing new. also WW2 fighter jets used water injection as well

  • @AEMpowerTVelectronics
    @AEMpowerTVelectronics  13 лет назад

    @koutz4 Thanks for the props! We typically like to install the water/methanol injector post intercooler to avoid water/meth pooling up in the intercooler. Although some will install it pre intercooler and pre compressor we like to install it post. Another thing to keep in mind is if your car is equipped with a MAF than make sure it is post that as well. As far as ignition timing you can leave it stock, but to get the most benefit more timing can be added to your ignition map.

    • @gbarker1998
      @gbarker1998 9 лет назад

      Yes. It's just an add-on system so as long as you are not using the water-meth just to keep your engine at a safe temperature it won't cause any damage to your engine, you'll just lose the benefits of the cooler inlet air temperatures and increased boost.

  • @getalife04
    @getalife04 13 лет назад

    @TheAristotleQ Ok so I was a off with the amount of fuel that it replaces but it does make a difference in economy and the amount of fuel you have to dump in order to make the same power. The best benefit is the knock prevention and the ability to up the boost and the timing to create more power. I read 30mpg at full throttle lol.

    • @AEMpowerTVelectronics
      @AEMpowerTVelectronics  7 лет назад

      The consumption rate of the WM will depend on your start and full pressure settings, and ultimately your driving habits. Typically our 1.15 gallon tank will last for the length of a tank of gas. Our standard controller is boost dependent, meaning you set the boost pressure you want the WMI to start flowing at, and the pressure you want full flow at. The controller then interpolates these two points to deliver a linear fuel flow curve between the start and full pressure points. You can also use our Multi-Input Controller to set start and full pressure from MAF reading or IDC.

  • @Sigrafix
    @Sigrafix 9 лет назад

    What about tuning for moded cars?.. If it creates more power by allowing more timing is it to the point where the ECU can adjust itself with an aftermarket tune already in place or does it have to be specifically tuned to run with water/meth? if it has to be tuned for water/meth then what happens when it runs out? the car runs like crap because there's too much timing or can it just pull timing to a preset like say a 93 octane tune?

    • @AEMpowerTVelectronics
      @AEMpowerTVelectronics  9 лет назад +9

      Sigrafix To take full advantage of a system the car should be retuned with the water/methanol injection. On our system we include a fluid level sensor so in the case that you run out of fluid it can send a low side ground output through our controller to your ecu to switch maps.

      Thank you! That's what I wanted to know.. now this brings me to my next 2 questions, 1. How big would a typical methanol tank be? and 2. How long would that amount of meth last in moderate use?..
      ideally I'd consider a low constant meth injection to supplement fuel for a bit more power at all times but I'm not sure if that's realistic or even possible.

    @rabbott430 HAHA! Funny but some have tried this - with not so good results. Here's why: the size of the water droplets is too big and won't atomize correctly, so you have water that is in a droplet that is too big to vaporize (and thus can't cool things off) entering the combustion chamber. Problem 2 is the siphoning effect that will occur when the engine is in vacuum - your engine will suck water out of the tank and could hydrolock.

    Can e85 not be injected?

      Not using this system. It is designed for water/methanol injection only. If you want to use E85 you will need to upgrade your vehicle's fuel system with alcohol fuel-compatible components (pump, filter, lines, injectors, regulator, etc).

    @TheAristotleQ Ok let me elaborate a little here. When you run meth at idle everything is normal you are using just the fuel in your take like normal. But once you build up to say 7psi of boost the meth kicks in where you can pull back the pump gas. And how does a 50/50 mix NOT burn? Once it combusts in the chamber the cooling effect of the alcohol reduces the thermal temp and decreasing knock. Also the water offers a cooling effect and steam cleans the engine.

    Cool vid, I had always wondered how meth increased the amount of boost the engine could handle.

    @1970351cmustang Short answer... YES! Even on a N/A engine you will see power gains. Check out the Aug 2011 issue of Popular Hot Rodding Magazine, they cover the topic of N/A Water/Meth injection. However they did theirs on a Carburated 302 setup. Check out Snow Performance for Mustang kits.

    I'm running propane already... if I can do this I can really turn it up!

    @getalife04 It did nothing noticeable for my fuel economy. No one I know has ever gotten better gas mileage on a forced induction gas engine. I have a W/M set up on my car. When I drive mostly freeway, the system doesn't come into play. When I drive mostly city, the only difference I notice is that I never lose power due to high intake temps and heat soak on my stock intercooler. Especially during summer temps.

    @KoalaJacks I can assure you, it does NOT increase your fuel mileage. The system is only active during acceleration, so unless you drive 98% of the time with your foot completely to the floor, you are not saving any gas.
