Hello everyone! So I have been fighting an issue with my snow performance kit for awhile now. First and foremost, allow me to describe how I have the kit installed. I have my tank installed in my trunk. The pump is mounted opposite side of the trunk and a few inches below the tank. Right before the pump, I have a meth solenoid installed. Now, I ran the meth line inside the car under the door sill. Right before I ran the line through the firewall, I have the filter/check valve. Recently, I have just installed another meth solenoid a couple feet before the nozzle. For the nozzle, I have an aem v3 with a 1000cc jet installed about 1 foot down from the throttle body elbow in my upper intercooler pipe.
Ok, now that I have described the installation, let me describe my issue. I have it spraying at 3500rpm, 12lbs of boost, over 60 percent throttle and over 1.4 load. I have it spraying from my egr solenoid controlled by ecmlink v3. When I wot and my led for spraying illuminates, there is about 500 rpm where you can tell meth actually is not coming out because it will be about 12 afr and some counts of knock. Now after that short period of time, my afr will drop to 11 and my knock retard decreases gradually. When I let off, the street is filled with white smoke for about 5 seconds after my pull and every time I touch throttle.
Thanks for bearing with me thus far. So here's some info that I missed. I run snow performance boost juice. The nozzle is installed on about a 60 degree upward sloped intercooler pipe. With the meth turned off, there is no smoke at all.
Now here's my theory. Upon throttle lift, the amount of vacuum is over coming the meth solenoids and sucking the long line of meth clear which would explain the beginning lean moment and explain the white smoke upon extreme vacuum.
So I believe I have touched base on everything I needed to. What do you guys think? Should I try to move my pump to the engine bay? Is there a better meth solenoid? Thanks in advance for your input.
