At what temperature is the "danger zone" as far as air intake temps are concerned?

I did a pull yesterday and seen it go as high as 240 and aborted immediatly. Meth injection kit is in the mail.

190 for the SVTF (at least thats how my car was tuned..."Dont let the temps go above 190")

You may need to go one step richer on your fuel jet with your nitrous. What kind of kit are you running? 240 is way high..

 

[mike 1]

Oh, thats 240 on nitrous!?

With these Temp and humidity those temps dont surprise me ,but are to high unless your randy at fs and he sais there fine to do with the fs sc kit and i think thats BS

A meth injection kit will help for safety BUT DO NOT TUNE FOR THE WATER METH install it and run it like it is for safety and not for performance

At about 195 to 200 lift even tho the ECU sees the temp and tries to adjust for it I do not feel anything more then 195 to 200 is safe

No, not on nitrous. I now have a Vortech on my car.

Tom, when I did this pull it was 92* outside with 90* humidity.

The meth injection kit will be used ONLY and I repeat ONLY to cool the intake charge. I will not add timing or boost simply because I have it.

You dont have a cooler on your kit?

Also the IAT cannot read above 240 /244 so there realy isnt any idea how hot the IAT realy was

Tom

 

[2.0TooSlow]

No, no cooler. It's an uncooled kit.

 

[viney266]

Wow, that is hot then, but you have the right man on the job with Tom, so please continue on.

Sorry I didn't realize you had gone with the vortech and ditched the nitrous.

Sorry I didn't realize you had gone with the vortech and ditched the nitrous.

It's cool, believe me when I say your not the first.

I will have both soon though. [}]

 

[mike 1]

Yeah, you definitely need to get that worked out. When my car was tuned, Tom stressed to Ray about not going over 190* and then taking another 2% out of that...

...My question and comment . Where are you planning to place the meth nozzle in your intake?? I've got the Snow performance kit installed and can't use it cause it floods and shorts the TPS ...[mad]

 

[mike 1]

I thought about using that as a safety tool also....can the nozzle be placed on the manifold itself just behind the TB flange; maybe on the bottom side? Perhaps tapped into the TB itself just behind the butterfly? I also want to get my hands on a J&S safeguard ayone have one/ know how to hook one up?

Holy Shit Batman, 240 is insane.
