Water/Alcohol injection Turbo Diesel use

[GTi]

Good day guys! I've been thinking recently about livening up our "donkey" (diesel Revo: sturdy and reliable but slow-ass car). Apparently, the only ways to do that would be installing K&N and alcohol injection. Now considering that it is a normally aspirated diesel engine, how greatly would it impact the performance and gas mileage? Anyone here who've tried it? How much gains exactly in solid numbers?

Since I am not well versed with alcohol injection, please forgive my noob question here : When going on long drives with alcohol injection, would I have to refill it every few hours or so?

Hope you guys can enlighten me about this! Thanks!

It will gain power but only around 5% to 10%. The low hp NA diesels will not pick up that much extra power. You might want to take your ride by Bermmia diesel for a tune. They can get you up to optimum performance.

I see. Would the improvement be similar to a Crosswind's? Or will it be much lower? Is the Crosswind's low charge turbo a big factor here?

Actually, I'm much closer to Speedlab. Would they do a good job with this one?

dvldoc, whats a good start up and max psi setting for a stage 2 kit installed on a 2003 zd30 patrol? current setup= startup 2psi, max 18psi.
and whats a good mix for water and denatured alcohol?
will this also clean my egr valve? tnx

[dvldoc]

Six psi start twelve full. Yes it will clean your egt, you will want a 50/50 mix.

in layman's terms, what are the benefits of new nozzle?

[dvldoc]

easier mounting, a bit better atomization, and a better fit on bungs or thicker hose.

[dvldoc]

easier mounting in a bung or tapped pipe or hose and better atomization,

thanks Doc. Care to expound a bit more on atomization? Will increase boost, more efficient use of alcohol/water mixture?

[crazy_boy]

I have been thinking of installing water alcohol injection since last December. I hope i get 1 soon..

[dvldoc]

its not a really a increase u can measure, we are talking microns here with the nozzle from the current to the new ones,

boost pretty much always increases with adding the kit alone. flow will still be the same 3gph is 3gph * X psi.

Anyone up for a group buy for stage 2? I find Speedlab's pricing too much.
