Water / Methanol Injection Kits
AEM
Water/Methanol Injection Kits reduce air inlet temperatures which allows
users to increase boost pressure (and advance timing on forced
induction gas applications) to create more power by utilizing the
cooling effects of the system under heavy load. The kit is offered in 2
configurations: a 1-Gallon kit for racecar applications, and a 5- Gallon
HD kit for Diesel applications or racecars requiring extended range.
Both kits include all the elements necessary to do water/methanol
injection right, including a standard fluid level sensor for the tank,
recirculation-style pump, feature-loaded controller, and complete
hardware for installation on practically any diesel or gas application.
For users who intend to use a custom or existing reservoir, AEM also
offers a “tankless” pump and jet kit. There are no hidden costs or
additional components required.
HOW
IT WORKS
Once the AEM Water/Methanol Kit is
installed, a boost-dependent, variable-flow progressive controller
allows the user to determine the amount of water/methanol mixture (up to
50%) to feed into the inlet stream from the fluid reservoir. The
controller commands a high-pressure, recirculation-style 150-PSI pump
that delivers the mixture. Overall flow adjustments at the inlet are
made via one of three different-sized jets (included) that are designed
to match most engine power requirements.
RECIRCULATION-STYLE PUMP
AEM's recirculation-style pump offers improved performance, reliability
and a much smoother, quieter operation when compared to older
switched-style pumps. With the use of a new internal bypass design,
AEM's upgraded pump eliminates erratic on and off switching/pulsing and
ensures consistent fluid delivery for optimum performance. With
durability and reliability in mind, AEM has designed the pump with a
Santoprene diaphragm and EPDM seals to withstand the harshest of alcohol
mixes.
BOOST SAFE!
All AEM Water/Methanol controllers include a Boost Safe feature. This
feature allows users to retard timing or reduce boost via a ground
output if the system runs out of fluid or detects a controller error,
ensuring fail-safe operation of the engine whether the system is engaged
or not. Critical safety features are integrated into the system to
virtually eliminate any chance of failure, including an integral fluid
level sensor in the reservoir, internal controller diagnostics and an
LED dash light to warn of low fluid level or error codes (including
short circuits.
