Egr race pipe question

335dlci · 12-01-2016, 10:47 PM

For those who have the egr race pipe with tapped boost port and methanol installed. Do you have the meth injector on the charge pipe and race pipe for boost ref? If so, would it cause any issues with getting meth into the boost pressure sensor?

I haven't gotten that far Im still waiting for parts from Snowperformance but YES that boost hole will be tapped with meth injector eventually.

Ask TDi or the other that hv done something with meth Im still learning

I don't think the meth could get "into" the pressure sensor...but if it could, I would think that you would already have blow by oil in the map sensor. I would imagine they are built to operate in any environment...other than it could be damaged by high heat (melting plastic) and it wouldn't do well with a large amount of carbon build up.

A customer told me that if you are going to use the Snow meth injectors you must disable the throttle plate...supposedly when you shut the car off the plate creates a vacuum and meth is drawn out of the injector...next time you go to start the car it can be very hard to start because it's on the verge of hydrolocking. He also said the Aquamist injectors don't have that problem, no need to mod the throttle valve action.

Any ideas on if this is a problem with other controllers? Like AEM maybe...

long crank? it can happen on any meth kit if meth is left in the intake tubing if you don't have anti siphon injectors or a check valve close to the injector.

Thanks for the answer andrew. I was just afford of damaging the boost pressure sensor.
