Smile Re: Alcohol Nozzle size Calculator

My Mini Cooper S is very modified (ported head, large valves, header,exhaust, pulley reduction, etc) and has the potential to reach 240whp with proper tune. The 1.6 is boosted to around 16-17psi with rev limited to 7500. Question is that I've been running a single M5 (5gph 50/50 mix) injector post intercooler and have experienced occasional misfire codes (one stage cooler plugs). The calculator calls for 2.8gph. Am I running too large an injector?

Also, is injecting prior to SC deleterious to the blower? Are there advantages/disadvantages as to where the injection takes place?

Thanks for your help!

i'm just learning about the benefits and pitfalls of water-alcohol-meth or any combination of them. i think i have learnt enough to know you do not put injectors before the turbo unless you wish to sandblast the turbo vanes. Ed

Re: Alcohol Nozzle size Calculator

In south America a carbarator is placed in front of the turbo to run on alcohol.
It works and Im trying to get one for my Diesel truck.I think I'll be able to use some of the equipment from here.Pumps & stuff.
Ward mag:claims Ford is going to do something soon.Im waiting.

Check your browser settings.

You should start out with the D04 nozzle with those specs, The D05 would be closer to 6.5gph. Remember the nozzles are rated at 100psi but the pump puts out much more than that.
