Arr are you thinking about correction in terms of fueling?

I'm talking about ignition timing, it seems the ACTs are not the biggest influence on when you fire the pulg.

That doesn't make sense to me... Surely an engine for a given load site on the map will benefit from more/less advance according to the temperature (density) of the ACT?

Maybe they just rely on the 'active' mode of the ecu along with the knock sensor to do this.


How the * did we get here from cryogenically freezing your manifold? LOL!

dont have time to read thro this as rushing out, but cooling the manifodl with co2 could help those running the vmax s/c kit? as they cant run an intercooler...

Ionic knock control works well *wink*

Not sure how we got here Dave!

Japanese cars use N2O intercooler spray because of the cooling effect along with making the underbonnet area oxygen rich.
Surely spraying with CO2 would make the underbonnet area deprived of oxygen and would thus be detrimental to performance..

Surely that depends on where you take you inlet air from ? .It has always seemed to me to take inlet air from the engine bay is only adding to the inlet temps, and an intake at the front of the car is not too hard to arrange.

the jap cars you seem to relate to dont take the air from the engine bay as standard and most have an extremely efficient air filter settup, and they use N2O usually because it saves carrying 2 heavy bottles, if they go that far chances are they have a nitrous injection system anyway so its no extra weight spraying N2O

and water injection is favoured more because there are so many more benefits and it is sooo sooo much cheaper

There are N2O stockists in the Yellow Pages for medical use.. lol. Think buy a big tank and keep it in your garage.
