Choosing Methanol Kit? Which one?

tglazed · 01-25-2015, 07:41 PM

So I am getting ready to run methanol and am not sure which kit to run. I need one that works well with he cobb accessport. I am told that the Aquamist HFS-4 works well with accessport but would like to hear your guys opinion on things.
Also, I am getting a protune after I get the setup installed and am wondering if I need to upgrade my fuel system (more specifically the pumps)
Thanks for the help. I also emailed PTF today so I can get another opinion on things.

Ptf will only tune with the aquamist kit

Oh that is good to know. Do you know what size nozzles to get. On the website they have it rated by cc injectors but obviously our cars are direct injection so not sure what to rate it by. Here is the website for reference, http://www.howertonengineering.net/a...ection-system/
If you click calculating jet size, you will understand what I am talking about.
Also curious on how much whp you are running because we have almost identical modifications except my intercooler is the 5" intercooler.

No idea. Shoot ptf an email and I'm sure they'll tell you exactly what to get.

Also haven't dynod but I'm hoping for at least 400whp, since I'm also now running a custom e40 map

Shot them an email earlier today but figured I would get the opinion of the forum also.
