Walt; really great to see you here. I'm pretty excited and this is a good project for all of us. I have a real interest in this one as I think WMI could be a real
help to us boosters from a safety perspective alone. I figure if I never turn up the wick it's still worth the investment just for the peace of mind. I'm trying to look at any down side to making this choice and can't really find one. It is, in fact, proven that WMI will drastically reduce detonation and the only downside I see is system failure or filling the tank. With the safeties built into the system that will prevent any damage if a system failure would occur. But you only put yourself in that position if you turn the wick up. Always interested in any input you might have.

JBurer: Thanks for joining in.
I talked with Chris Carroll at Turbokraft a couple weeks ago and asked what his thoughts were. Chris said he had little or no exposure. He did tell me his shop,s neighbor is a Ricer Tuner and does really wild 1000HP Rice Sleds and uses WMI of almost everything. Chris had been talking with him about it and Chris would like to try it. It would really be great to get some feedback from him.

Busman: Holy S--- what a build you have. That has to be some serious fun. I appreciate some more experience with WMI you can help keep me from stepping on my dick while I do this.


Starting to look at wiring on this project and figuring out what all is needed. I've decided to add a WMI cutoff solenoid in the engine compartment to eliminate WM from siphoning back to the tank when the system stops injecting.This will deter any spray delay and keep air out.

Looks like we need to pull 2 wires and the juice tube back to the engine compartment. The wires will take care of the retard output to the MSD and the other will activate the cutoff solenoid. There will be 5 wires going to the dash for the 3 warning LED's and 2 to the boost controller to it interrupt boost solenoid if a failure occurs. Looks like everything else can be done on our custom roof flashing chassis.
