I've decided to do this strictly as an insurance policy against detonation.

There are claims of a 10-15 % power increase if you choose to use it as a performance enhancement. Reportadly the WMI will allow you to run 50% more boost, 20o more advance, and lower your afr's 1 full point and do it safely. Suposadly it will raise octane from 91 to 110-115. So no race gas needed. I'm so old I couldn't hear detonation if I had it so for me it's insurance.

I working in the dark on this one guy's all I know is what I've researched and heard. So keep the cards and letters coming and we can all learn together.

I'm going to try and do a picture thread of the install so we can start gathering some information on WMI and how beneficial it is, OR NOT.

To give you an idea of what I am doing I'll start with some of the components.

The tank is a 2 1/2 Gal and has a quick connect that connects the tank to the pump. The tank also has a level switch in it with an output that warns of low fluid as well as being tied into the safety module and a yellow warning led for the dash. I will be using Wall Mart Super Tech 2000 washer fuid that is 42% methanol and 58% water.

The pump is a 220 PSI push pump that is way more pressure than really needed, but we all know more has to be better. It also connects to the safety module which will trigger a fault output if there is pump clog, low flow,or pump failure with a usable control signal output as well as a red led warning lite.

The controller runs the system and allows you to set mode (MAP or Boost) you then set a start boost pressure (typicaly 4-5 PSI) and a max boost pressure for injection operation. Injection is interpulated in the controller based on the low/high settings and injects metered mixture based the real time slope off the boost signal.

The safety module monitors the system and gives you output capability to allow shut down of components in the event of a failure and turns on the respective led's. Your flow rate and a flow delay are ajustable on the safety module. The failure outputs allow you to select components to shut down when a failure and this is done through relays to protect the system from high voltage spikes. I am outputing to the EBC boost sloenoid and the MSD to simultaniously cut boost, retarding timing, and cutting flow if there is a failure detected.

Presently I am locating components and making a chassis to mount the control components on. I made a chassis last nite and am waiting for terminal strips and relays to get here. I will continue to post pictures and progress as I go.

Keep up the feed back, questions, and answers. We are either going to prove or disprove the effectiveness of a WMI system on a 930.
