Couple of questions

Krister · 03-25-2008

Hey,

I started installing my Progressive kit yesterday.

I installed the pump and hose to my windshield washer tank and tested the pump. I hooked up the check valve and M7 nozzle and hooked power to the pump. There was no water spraying from the nozzle at all. Then I removed the check valve and tried again and it started working and I re-installed the check valve and it worked with it aswell. This just got me worried if the pump wouldnt be primed for some reason and the spraying wouldnt start. I have the pump installed maby few inches on top of the washer tank because there is no room for it below it.

Second question is if there is a problem installing the jet in the intercooler pipe around one feet or two before the TB when there is a pretty tight 90-degree bend before the TB. Will the methanol still distribute evenly?

I got the kit with the extra MAP-sensor because at the time I ordered it I was using the stock AFM. Now I have upgraded to a HKS VPC which has a Denso 3bar map sensor. Can I use this map sensor as a signal to the Progressive Controller?

Regards
Krister

The reason it did not work is you cannot prime the pump with the check valve in place. Thats why it worked once primed and the check valve re-installed. We need to add that to the instructions because it always comes up. Once primed the pumps reverse flow check valve keeps fluid in the head.

Yes you will get even distrubution remember you have 100 of CFM of air passing through a pipe less than 3" ID as well as well over 150psi of pressure from the pump.

You can use the Map sensor for the controller to read as you boost reference. Just make sure it's the same bar as your controller. If you have the voltage face controller use the activation lights to set your points.
