Thanks for reminding me. Just bought my innovate G3 kit. Only thing left is METH to buy... And waiting for my ECU + other goodies ...

That's what I was recommending, that he stay with one of the models already in the dropdown. There are people who are complaining that the standalone is not matching the ECU. Not good if you are relying on the W/B to measure A/F.

Have you thought about using the MS3 to control the meth injection?

I've just started looking into it and although it's not 100% documented, it would be much cheaper if you don't need the progressive controller.

I beleive this is the case but

Bosch is the sensor in both Innovative and AEM.. the differnece is the cable and the guage.. so how the sensor is read

but others can correct if I am wrong

You're correct, Bosch is the standard for sensors. But the calibration and accuracy is what makes the controllers different. Placement also makes a difference but so far I haven't found a sensor that could be installed at the cylinder exhaust outlet and survive the temps.

I haven't. Im looking at the snow meth right now and there are alot of variations. Most use the 0-5V MAF sensor and other can just use boost.

curious, for those running meth, where do you keep the tank at? and how large? .. from what I understand it can be pretty small but the only tank I saw I think Inac had in his no longer there back seat

Methanol has health risk. Please search for my many post (as shown below) on this issue.

I'm using my windshield washer bottle. IHC's story about being poisoned freaked me out so I made sure mine was outside.

Bert has his in his trunk.

BTW, I did a bit more research. To implement the MS3 you'll need to use a fast acting valve that Coolingmist uses in their systems. That's about as far as I got.

slightly off topic, but does anybody have a picture of what J&R's knock monitor looks like? i want to get an idea of where i'm going to place it in the vehicle so i'd like to see the shape/size of it.

thanks!

It's strapped to the harness. That box where the yellow and green twisted pair is connected is the knock box.

^very cool. isn't there an indicator light or something that you place somewhere in your line of sight? it flashes when knock is detected?

or am i dreaming?

The ECU then has parameters (defined by the owner/tuner) as to when to pull "X" number of degrees of timing on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd instances of knock within a set period of time (ms).

It's on the end of the green/yellow twisted pair. Are you sending your harness back or DIY?

Standard kit comes with a 3qt tank but there are 1 gal 2.5gal 3gal 5gal and even a 7gal you can buy. Im thinking of adding it over my wiper bottle since theres sooo much space there. I just have to watch out for my tires eating away at the liner and hitting it lol Price of being low..

The kit I bought from Alky uses a GM 2-bar MAP sensor. Compared to AEM and Snow, he uses all stainless steel braided lines vs the nylon braided lines that the other two uses.

Also like Rodney, his customer service is outstanding. I was getting responses from him on Sundays.

It was around $600.00 complete. He customizes it to your installation. Since I installed my pump below the outlet of the washer tank, I had to go completely across the engine compartment. The pump has to be gravity fed.

hey man.... don't interrupt us here.... we're trying to discuss methanol kits for our TL here.



I was thinking the same thing. To get back at them, perhaps you should start discussing the ecu and knock monitoring in your thread.

ok so to bring back to topic of meth injection....i saw a deal on bisimoto (dont ask me why i was there ) for water meth injection.....

is there anything else needed other than this ???

are you guys doing it on boosted car or N/A? The AEM works best for boosted car. Not so well on N/A cars. Thats why I got the aquamist one. Since it runs off my fuel injector duty. It also is metered like a fuel injected car so the its very linear spray.


stuff that other company use

notice the difference.

aqua sliver gold other * i think*

^Yeah, the spray difference is due to the use of the fast acting valve vs progressively 'winding' up the pump like a lot of the companies are doing.

But you are right about being more flexible. With the MS3, you set it up based on the MAP reading but I don't know how accurate it would be.

Anyone ever consider putting the jets in the runners? I don't know if you'd need to time it with the injector pulse but they do make manifolds for these systems. Would solve the distribution issue.

Sorry for creating a new thread. I just wanted to keep the information separate for search purposes. These threads get too busy and the information gets lost.

Update on my MS3 ECU:
I have engine code show up I keep resetting they are P0720,P0138 and P0158. I have start up issues not to happy about but here it is. For my car not to show code P0720 I have to turn ignition 3 times and start and a little gas my RPM shoots to 1800 if I just turn it to start with gas it shoots to 2000 and code comes on right away, idling is all over the place jumping from 1200,1000,700. when I have that code on P0720 I have a hard time putting into 5th gear sometime it wont go in.

I also notice when driving and I let off the gas it seems the rpm don't drop but stays there for awhile before dropping and very slowly, it seem like i still have my foot on the gas but i don't. i also notice when driving at a certain speed then i punch it the car bogs and jerks.

Also my stock gauges aren't working properly, temp gauge and my Liter to empty numbers don't match my gas gauge. my car has a strong smell of carbon or gas,if i pull a gear a lots off the gas man it sounds like a machine gun going off (all the back fire). I lost about 150-200 km in fuel mileage but my L/100 reads 7 doesn't add up. and I have knock when driving hard light goes on at high rpm.

If I take it to a professional tuner can they fix these problems? Performance wise my car is an animal it is fuc@in crazy I cant believe the gains I got with this MS3 ECU the car is ridiculously fast and it pull hard really hard, it is worth the money and it is a plug n play but really its not.

^okay quick reply to some of your answers.....

those first two codes are you running rich codes (which is normal and there is no fix as of yet that I know of...just delete them or leave it....

the other one since P0158 I think is your VTEC being bumped up which Rodney had talked about which will set off a CEL.....

the machine guns (back fire is normal as more fuel is being fed into the cylinder and the excess when you let off pedal is burned off thru exhaust and which in turn causes the BOOM BOOM for the back!!)

your other starting issues can be fixed as I used to have that...either Talking to Rodney and you hooking up with a laptop with tunerstudios or have someone with knowledge of MS3 around you tune it for you!!!......

oh also the Accelerator feeling like the car is not slowing down has something to do with the driveby wire and MS3, forget what Rodney told me but it is normal and you get used to it!!

how rich are you running? I am just worrying because your washing the lub from the cylinder wall and its also contaminating your oil in the long run.

P0158-02 Sensor Circuit High Voltage (Bank 2 Sensor 2)
P0138-O2 Oxygen Sensor Circuit High Voltage (Bank1, Sensor2)

P0720-Output Speed Sensor Circuit

The speed sensor detects the revolution of the idler gear parking pawl lock gear and emits a pulse signal. The pulse signal is sent to the Transmission Control Module (TCM) which converts it into vehicle speed.

so looks like I didn't pay attention to the actual codes you put down and that was my bad........

so much for assuming it was the usual 3 codes..lol but yeah Rodney will take care of you don't worry!!!.....usually it always ends up being something minor and fixable!!
