Our valve is not made by clippard, our valve is 430F stanless steel. The valve that Aquamist is experimenting with is a very cheap valve made by clippard for use in air application. Its designed with CRS (cold rolled steel, commonly refered to as "junk steel"). It has great magnetic properties, but poor corrosion resistance. Clippard puts a .004 coating of Nickel, but obviously over time and with any abrasion that will wear thin and you will see corrosion.
That manifold that you see (the "aluminum" has a thick coating of Nickel to prevent corrosion of methanol and he is running 100% water anyway).

I believe they're M2's.....I haven't really tuned the system in as I am STILL waiting on many other things to be completed. To be honest my system hasn't even been turned on in months.
Ok, this is sick, we sold this on Friday to a hot rodder. Only coolingmist would do. He actually had another kit which he waited from England for ever, but ended up sending it back and using ours. Its our first 8 port S-HSV. Notice the manifold....
*eight* port
how well do they flow?!

still tryin to decide between the direct port or before the tb. i've read where when you put the sprayer be4 the IAT(sensor in the hp) it reads cooler and gives you more performance. is even distribution the only advantage of dp?
even distribution and obviously it has to be somewhat faster even if marginal. The nozzles will be smaller, you will use a little less water and maybe have slightly better atomization as well.
Not only did you purchase and build a custom direct port methanol kit,but you also fab'd a REAL twin turbo setup.If I had the money you had,I would probably turn my car into a damn airplane,lol. Great work man,keep it up!

~P.S. What are the gains with this setup versus a regular methanol setup?
