True.

For one, and this is not even water/alcohol injection related, you'll be able to tell if there is a boost leak in your modded system. You'll also know if you're boosting too high, if you've installed a boost controller and cranked it up too much.

For the water/alcohol injection part, it will help determine if indeed you are triggering the alcohol pump at the right PSI. Yes, there is a pressure switch with the kit, but I would think it would be easier to note and prove via the boost gauge if indeed the pressure switch is working correctly. Also, it will help you if you decide to tweak your settings.

Just in case you wondered how well water is atomized check out the new nozzles. This is just me messing around in the shop doing a comparison, I am very happy with the new nozzles. The one on the left is a 10gph the new one I was playing with is our 7gph. I run a 7gph and a 2gph in my Elgrand.

doc, the kit that i ordered for my 4m40 is already on its way to manila via balikbayan box.

regarding installation, would like to know if you would suggest berrima or i can have it installed by other mechanic?

[dvldoc]

Berrima or Speedlab can do it easily for you.

Got it doc. Will have 1 installed. Can i know what will be the bad effect without a boost gauge?

not really a bad effect but you won't be able to tell if pump fires at your desired pressure level. also, based on the inputs I got here, i stay to within 10-12psi max. (i inserted a switch to manually turn the pump off on my stage 1 setup.)

Cause i was thinking of having it installed by someone else. Thanks hehe

It's really not that hard to install, The directions are very good and detailed. Follow them and you will be ok. If you got the progressive controller just make sure your ignition 12v constant for the orange wire does not cut on and off when the ignition is cranked.

what causes moisture formation on the alcohol/water stainless tank? what can be done to minimize or avoid it? thanks

[dvldoc]

Humidity, Mine does not do that though because the Elgrand is a lot more sealed up on the inside than the crosswind.

Here's are booth at SEMA, The guys from Speedlab were also there.

Sir Dvldoc may I know if you have any distributor/installer here in cebu because i want 1 to be installed on my turbo diesel liteace. And If you do have an installer here may i know how much is the entire kit?

Sorry our only dealers are in Manila, Speedlab and Berrima diesel. If you have someone coming from the states sometime soon you can have then bring one back with you as well. I don't know what Berrima charges for kits these days but Speedlab has it on there site. Yes it is cheaper to get it in the states but getting one there is the big issue. The is also pobox.ph a shipping service you can use. It will just take a month or so to get there.

You can look at our site for the kit prices, But for the liteace the 4cly turbo diesel kit is a good option for you. It was made for the lower hp JDM turbo diesel.

If I'm not mistaken, berrima charges 22k for the stage2 kit. Excluding install

A few install tips, Be sure to follow the directions and unhook your batter before hooking up the controller, Hook the Orange wire directly to the battery it can save a lot of issues you can get. (some 12v constant sources turn off when you crank the engine or turn off when certain accessories are off or on) most don't check this.

Lastly do not turn the full know lower than the start knob at any time. (confuses the controller) can cause issues if left there long term.

Noted on this dvldoc. Another thing, for the 4m40 engine, what is the maximum boost that I should set the boost controller to? As for the controller, what should be the value for the start and full knob? Thanks

You won't know until you hook it up, Most come set at a low boost level, I would run 15psi on your 4m40 with the kit. Luckily you have a mechanical fuel pump so you can get that adjusted for a bit more fuel and make even more power. Berrima can tune it for max power.

Hi Doc,

This is the Berrima tune of my Pajero last Sept '12. Nice bump in HP and torque.

wow! almost 20hp difference from base? this is with WAI na?

I think he only has WAI on his crosswind. When you get your vehicle tuned then the alcohol injection it makes a world of difference. Plus it can tell you if there is something wrong.

When I went back for a dyno in July I found out my MAF sensor was bad and I lost like 35hp over stock just from that. The alcohol injection put back 35hp even with the Bad MAF. Got that fixed and man what a difference.

85hp at the wheels is what a 4m40 normally gets.



I think there TQ numbers are way off on that dyno though.

I would really like to do tuning first. But it's too expensive at P9.000

Dvldoc,

I have a Stage 1 set up that I'd like to have a dealer check out. Will Berrima check out my install and propose changes? Or will they only touch what they installed?
