Back to DSM's...again :)

[redline]

So it's been a few years since I have owned a DSM. Had a few 2g's and a 1g. Since have tried just about everything else and just been watching the market, waiting for the right 2g again. Just got back from Iowa picking it up. It's a 95' converted to 99' body style. GT35R set up with a punishment mani and some tial parts. Sheet metal mani and alky injection. Shep tranny, dsmlink, crower cams, forged internals and all the stuff to go with it. Got a few quesions. The guy I got it from said he runs 100% methonal in the sprayer and the tune is set up for it ( widebands shows 11.00-11.20 at 26 lbs ). I am wondering what guys are running ( alky or meth ) and what is most readily available around the cities. Plan on getting down to Modern in the next to hit the rollers and would like to tweak the tune for whatever I am gonna spray.

Looks nice, Minus that hood... But good choice. What are you gonna do to it besides retune?

The clutch in the car is a twin disc and the engagment is BAD. It grabs and holds awsome, but there is about 2 inches of pedal play between all or nothing. Might change up the clutch and kicking around doing an E85 tune.

E85 FORSURE Screw pump+ meth. lol

For sure, just not sure if the fuel system will be up to par. It's only a rewired 255 running 1000cc injectors...

Looks decent! FMIC is a little beat-up but otherwise seems like a decent setup! What alcohol injection system is on it? I run 50/50 methanol/distilled water on my evo with an aquamist hfs-1, I get it from DB Performance in Rogers. They also have a dyno, shane is the premier DSM/Evo tuner around here, definitely worth checking them out :D

I have never been to DB, might have to make a trip. The car is running the Sno-perfomance kit with a .625 nozzle. Have you tried running the car 100% vs 50/50?

[scheides]

Yup, 100% denatured alcohol, 100% methanol, 75/25 meth/water, and 50/50. Pretty equal power results.

[redline]

How much did you need to change your fueling going from 100% to 50/50? Was timing pretty consistent?
