Ok maybe im just crazy, but is this feasable? Running water/meth and propane all the time, but at the track running nitrous on top of that? Would there be any problems, tranny obviousy, but maybe engine damage?

I did this last year and almost made 800hp at the ATS dyno day. I used OLD meth that was long expired (didn't know about shelf life of methanol). I did lthis for months of testing, running after the 1/8 mile mark with good results. Then came the day I through it all in strait off the start. DON'T DO IT!!! (unless you have another motor on the side lines) Water freezes at 32 deg. Meth freezes at -210 deg. When N2O is released from pressure form and vaporizes, it drops to -127 deg. Water molecules instantly freez in the intake track, close the air passage down rapidly and it is snowing an ice storm in your motor. Some brave it any way though. To scarry for me any more.

I was running a stock turbo and injectors (engine for that matter) with the TTS Xtreme, Powershot 2000 vapor propane system, my N2O and water/meth set ups (meth was no good however). That was last year though.

Next time it's going to be 4 DIGIT RWHP :cool2:

And still have stock turbo and injectors.

Probably even have a camper in the bed at dyno day.

Super Diesel, do you think it would be ok to run all three if you run a nitrous fogger set up? I tapped the head just over the intake valve on each cylinder.. I've been planning on running atleast water meth with it.. Do you think it would be safe? Would a small amount of propane help as well?
