I was wanting to get some opinions on the differences, pluses and minuses between running the different gas injection possibilities and any possible bad side effects.

 

NOS= major mods and supporting equipment. Great power, not as bad on a diesel engine as a gasser.
Propane=minor mods, better performance and gas mileage, but not too terribly popular. Nothing wrong with it, just better bang for your buck else where.
Water/meth= Great for EGT's, fair power gains, but some lean toward it corroding internal parts over time. Great when used for towing/extereme performance, not too terribley $$$.

Keep in mind, I do not have any of these mods, but I keep my eyes glued to the DTR, and this is what I have read. Hope that I have helped a little!!

 

Get a good turbo before you start sprayin'.

 

And swap to headstuds!!!!

 

What is it you want to do with your truck?? Do you tow with it?? Just want some extra power for that? Looking for mileage increases?? Just want some extra power? Looking to lower EGT's? Are you going to race or pull?? It all makes a difference as well as the supporting mods you will or will not need as previously mentioned.

 

right now I'm just looking at ways to get better 1/4 mile times. I do not tow anything I just like to eat tuners at the track and i would like to eat mustangs next.

 

Do you need mods to run just water injection????

 

If you talk to Snow(water/meth), they tell you no mods are necessary but some feel that the head pressure gets high, but was told thats only if you use a high concentration of meth to make that happen.

On a side note I did read that NOS wasnt that bad on diesels and you can keep adding nitro until you start loosing power without breakage. But I like to test the limits of stuff so do "drugs" at your own risk. Most people will tell you to stud or firering the heads first.

 

I'm running propane and seeing a pretty good improvement in MPG and an ok improvement in power, but I think propane and water/meth are better mods for highway driving and towing and NOS better for what you are wanting to do.

 

I have a snow stage II kit i haven't installed yet. Studs went on yesterday...and i'm gonna block off my freeze plug from blowing too before i install the water/meth. (we are gonna install the freeze plug plate when my billet flex plate arrives...DTT's is on back order.)

then....its on like donkey kong!

 

Sounds like the little italian mans gonna get it. Wish I was at that stage.

 

I thought you needed a high-pressure bottle, regulator, solenoid, injector, etc. to run propane?
