Status, which wmi kits were those cars running?

I remember reading in here or elsewhere, that somebody suggested the snow kits aren't as good of quality as an aquamist kit.

If you have worked with both, which kit do you consider to be the better option in terms of quality, performance and engine safety long term?

I think the aquamist is the better kit of the bunch but a little harder to install and setup.

Not saying that there is anything "wrong" with the other kits. I myself am probably gonna go the snow performance kit as I will be installing it myself so it seems a little easier.

Seriously if you are running that much power your gunna need a pretty serious fuel system anyway..

What I am really interested to see now is a E85 fueled car with WMI..

Will it be twice as awesome, or not really..

might give it a crack if no one else does:)

I don't think it works that way ARTZ, my tuner reckons one or the other. The good thing is you can lean out your fuel a bit so it has been known to gain fuel economy as well.

So I'm told, have a read of either mafias or tridents threads on it, I think I remember one of them saying such things

Got a snow s2 if u are looking, am needing to free up some cash atm. Could save you a neat a mount off new.

Just a short drive over to revesby ;)

How much??

Why wouldn't it work, WMI cools your intake charge, e85 cools your exhaust, the colder everything runs the harder you can push it..

Can't hurt to try it, unless somebody can show results that prove otherwise

I'm sure there would be a gain, but it would probably be close to negligible. Would be great for someone to give it a go though!

bugger.... i bought the dyno files home but i dont have the viewer on this laptop.

Just pulled the soarer with WMI back off the dyno and at 25 psi it made 445rwkw with intake temps averaging 20-24 degrees... it will pull that power run after run after run. It has more in it but we started getting a bit of bleed on the fuel pressure. This car is setup for circuit so it needs to be safe under all conditions so we stopped at 25psi and 445rwkw.

On 98 it would pull one run @ 380rwkw on 20psi but high intake temps held it back from running more boost.. and subsequent pulls would drop power with each pull via the AIT compensation. On 20psi it will pull 390rwkw all day with loads more mid and a near perfect power curve.

Overall timing gain was comparable to e85.

What turbo on that set up?

Did you get that directly from aquamist?

Was from a performance shop with an online store which I found while googling prices. The communication was pretty much non existant and it took close to 4 weeks to arrive.

The failsafe and triggering vavle is what made me choose it over a snow or aem unit. I'm pretty keen to see the results from it

Add a drop of blue food colouring to the 5lt mix and you can call it windex injection. You can actually use some kinds of industrial glass cleaners too, as they contain up to 25% methanol.

Also this is something else that I find interesting...

5-10% nitro is considered safe. Higher concentrations can fall out of suspension, but would probably remain in solution better if mixed with methanol first. There is quite a few threads on the waterinjection info forum about this.

Was thinking about this today, if you found a good glass cleaner with some methanol content, you could run the WMI feed directly from the washer bottle correct? (since most skylines have 3+ litre washer bottles) Leaving the only thing visible in the engine bay the injection nozzle and line.....

    • He obviously had his reason for flipping you off. I wonder what it was...
    • Thats why I stay far, far away from Eastwood. only go there if I wanna eat Korean food 
    • I have to agree like, yesterday, I was driving down the warringah freeway towards the bridge when this jackass driving a beaten up Honda civic cut me off so suddenly it made me almost yank the wheel to avoid him hitting my car. Honestly and he had the NERVE to flip me off (or some other gesture Idk). Im a calm guy, but really some people just dont deserve to have a license, let alone be allowed to drive on densely populated roads/highways. If youre gonna cut through lanes at least use the damn turn signal
    • HPA do an interesting video on tuning, and Adrian shows on the dyno, moving from 10:1 to 12:1 (And I think even 13:1) and the power moves SFA. However, a couple of degrees of timing has a HUGE impact. Exhaust side of things will more be the length of the exhaust and how many bends and turns you have. The straighter you can keep it, the better. By a lot. Oh, and getting the diameter right. Bigger isn't always better. Going to big can actually lose you power.
    • I have to say, most people I see on the road fit the bill of atrocious drivers. Whether they be cowboys in their dual cabs, bogans in the Commodores, or the soccer mums. Pretty much most people on the road put zero freaking thought into driving. Barely look further up the road then the end of their bonnet, and have never even thought about how catastrophically wrong shit can go, by doing what they all deem as normal driving. Especially their late braking, racing to stopped lights, and sitting half a foot off the bumper of the car in front at 110km/h. Wanna know what's even better? By the time their kids get to be old enough to learn to drive, they've already got in the back of their brain what is normal driving, how annoyed you're allowed to get at people etc, and then their parents who actually have zero freaking skill at driving (Even though they constantly say "I've been driving for 20 years and never had an accident!") teach the little twerps how to drive, or should I say, how to make a car move. Literally watched a parent teach their L Plater, on a 4 lane freeway, that you just slam the brakes on, and push your way over, even with a B Double bearing down on you, and that's how you should drive, rather then, just keep going to the next exit. Same shit happens all the time for side streets etc, watching numpties pull dumb shit turns pushing across 3 lanes of traffic, rather than just go up the road another 30 seconds, and take the next turn that'll get you to the same location... Oh, and the damn right lane bandits. Or the retards driving along with their headphones in, and can't hear the ambulance or fire truck right up their ass about to run them over...   Pretty much, people drive on the road, like ego centric f**ks, and don't actually think how dumb shit their driving is, how it could easily kill them or someone else in a split second, or at the very least, how they're driving is contributing to all the shit they're bitching about on the road, like shitty congestion!
