2005 Ford Mustang Roush Stage 1 Convertible Testing
|
When we decided to test this water/methanol kit, we wanted to test more than just horsepower and torque. Jones made back-to-back pulls, logging changes in IAT with and without the Snow kit. The yellow line in the graph represents rpm and the spikes are two of the dyno pulls made at BBR; the red line represents IAT over the course of the same pulls. After three quick pulls without water/methanol, the IAT rises as the rpm rises, but what happens after the run is significant. Run without the Snow kit, the IAT drastically increased as the constant flow of incoming air stopped. At the run start, the IAT was 120 degrees, but it quickly rose to 130.9 degrees. It was a completely different scenario with the water/methanol injection. The IAT decreased slightly as the rpm increased during the dyno pulls, due to the water/methanol, but the temperature fell dramatically once the run was over. At the start of the runs with water/methanol, the IAT was 125 degrees; once the run was over, the IAT fell to as low as 114.1 deg View Related Article
