Significant mods (your wiper blades dont count): S2 w/Toys, B&B TBE w/Magnaflow Hi-Flow Cat. & HKS Stainless Ti Muffler (Rear Section), Mopar Performance Air Filter (Stock Intake), JMB HardPipes w/Custom W/I Bungs (x2), Mopar Performance Plug Wires, NGK Plugs .035gap, MPx UDP.
Kit Maker/Type: Coolingmist Deluxe 2 Stage Kit (100psi Pump) w/Devils-Own (Replacement) Fittings & 200psi Gauge.
Nozzle size(s)/Location:
1.0 (M1) Stage 1 Nozzle activated by boost switch/solenoid at 4psi (Nozzle is located as close as possible to the TB on the UPP and has a 90deg fitting inside the UPP to point the Nozzle Away from the TB.)
3.9 (M3) Stage 2 Nozzle activated by boost switch/solenoid at 14psi (Nozzle is located as close as possible to the IC End Tank on the UPP and has a 90deg fitting inside the UPP to point the Nozzle Towards the IC End Tank.)
On point/ramp % / Full point: No W/I controller is being used. Both Nozzles are active at 14psi.
Fuel octane/additive used: ( specify summer/winter blend): Winter Blend 93 octane (Pump Gas Only)
W/I Mixture: 25% Race Quality Methanol & 75% Distilled Water.
Environment (Temps/Altitude): 32deg. (F), 28% Humidity, Pressure 30in., Dew Point 8deg (F), Altitude 341 ft / 104 m.
Results summary: HOM held 100% of the time through all Gears and Speeds of up to 130mph. Haven't tried it going faster than 130mph yet (not that it's needed at that speed). I tested it with successful results in DAB 2 and 3. I definately felt the increased performance.
UPDATE 1: My First Results seemed to be working initially... but now it will not hold HOM at all. I'm going to try different mixtures, or maybe I just have a clogged nozzle or something. I'll post an update as soon as I get more results.
UPDATE 2: After I installed a (Pressure Snubbed) Water Pressure gauge from Devils-Own, I noticed my problem immidiately! I was only getting 60psi of pressure out of my 100psi pump. I was under the assumption that the pump had been preset to 100psi, but then I remembered I purchased the clearanced kit from coolingmist. So it probably was altered some time in the past. I adjusted the pump pressure to read anywhere from 80 to 100psi... Even with the pressure snubber on the gauge it will vary by about 10-20psi or so. Not to mention the boost pressure that counteracts the pump's pressure. Now I can officially hold HOM with my M1 nozzle activated at 4psi, my M3 nozzle activated at 13-14psi with 80-100psi pump pressure, and using only -20deg or even -30deg (either/or) Washer Fluid.
UPDATE 3: Now that it's getting warmer out, I've noticed that the HOM doesn't hold nearly as often or as reliably as it did in the winter. I've substituded the M1 nozzle for an M5 (near the TB facing away from the TB) and currently have the M3 nozzle disconnected from the system. With just the M5 nozzle and 120psi max psi out of the 100psi pump, I can achieve a consistant HOM hold to redline in all gears if I wait till after 3200rpm in any gear before going WOT. The car feels much better now than it did before this update. It seems the M5 is the perfect nozzle. The problem I'm having now is trying to get it to hold HOM if I WOT before 3200rpm. BTW, my M5 turns full-on at ~10psi. I feel like I'm bogging the car if I WOT before 3200rpm, so I feel like maybe I can use the M3 or M1 in place of the M3, to hopefully hold HOM at the lower RPMs. I would set this nozzle to turn on at ~5-10psi and the M5 at ~15psi. Currently I'm also using the Greddy Profect B Spec II to run ~22psi spike and 16psi redline. I'll post an Update when I get the chance to setup the 2nd nozzle and switches.
