it has to go pre turbo if your doing it on the intake side of the motor. Other wise under boost you would be pushing the propane back to the regulator with all the boost your making, unless you get a boost regulated regulator which costs extra money. Im not going for that. This is just an idea im curious about. Although if i get the ok from one of 3 people at work tomorrow i'll try it on a junk turck just for fun.

This is a post motor propane injection so the hot exhaust gasses ignight the propane creating 1300* or so of temperature before the turbo making it spool faster than 400 or even 600* you might normally see right off idle.(i know numbers aren't exacy or maybe not even close)

 

someone sees the light, and curiosity which got us all where we are today. Every one i know always says nick you can't do that, thats impossible. Well most of the time i prove them wrong. Guy i share a garage with gets annoying with that, everything i do which isn't an exact bolt on or part change he says is impossible and watches me do it anyways.

(mini honda alternator on my torino)

 

one more thought i had, overcoming the exhaust gas pressures... depending on how high they are, means it would have to be a high pressure system.... right?

 

Ok, I guess I'm not thinking propane pressures.

I would not inject it right at the down pipe, I'd go a little further back... Actually, I'd go almost all the way back, and wire in a spark plug...

 

This purpose is for turbo spool only... the flamthrower name is just catchy, thats all. I don't really want to shoot flames, although i'd be cool literally burning the ricers next to me

Plus, if u just want flames... a salvage windshield washer tank, pump and spray nozzle (preferably out of an older car(like say a 72 torino)) go FAR!!! about 10' flames, ask me how i know that

 

You could just put a hood stack on, those shoot flames, trust me. I've thought about injecting propane after the turbo in the exhaust so that when my turbo lights and shoots the flame out of the hood stack, it would ignite the propane giving me a much bigger flame instead of just a 6" one i have now...

 

very nice smokin... my power screw is turned only one or two times... im unsure, and its like a rocket, i can't imagine what the full screw would do! lol i do have a very vivid imagination though...

 

Man...Just don't do it....You just bought the truck, don't blow it up.....

 

well mark... good question, Faster spool... to the mooon basically.

 

heck no, would never do such a thing to a beauty like my truck. The motor is basically untouched, with 104k its just getting broken in. I am putting a diesel saver system on, thats all as far as propane goes. blowing up the truck comes down the road...

 

I always only one hard run from a melted piston or a windowed block. Go big, or go home...

 

Like the way this man thinks also
(didn't you have the video of the nos bottle into your intake on the dyno?) ballzy yet awesome!

Idealy i would if i knew every thing else would hold up. The trans is the weak part in my truck, thats why im not going to hotrod it much more than what i got now.

But those work trucks are in for a wake up :-D if i am truely onto something i want rights to this idea ... well maybe just my set-up because ideas cost more to patten :-P

 

Maybe this will happen?

 

"If" you can get the propane to light, all it will do is add backpressure and boost. It will just stress the turbo harder while having no positive effect.

 

You ever hear of the drag motors running their engines backwords? Intake through the exhaust side and exhaust out the intake side with the fuel timing 740 out?
