Hmmm.... I'd forgotten how yours was arranged.

I'll have to think on it some more.

Do you have enough room in these locations?

I think that this is the most feasable idea so far... only issue is the intake has already been torqued into place... nothing like throwing $30 gaskets.. that i have to special order.

Now would I spray into the rotor housing only or spray 2 nozzles in opposing directions inside the manifold? (Front and rear) the blower discharge is almost centered on the front 4 runners.

Why do you need to pull the intake if you are running the feed line through the EGR Block off plate?

good point, i thought of maybe mounting the nozzles and fittings in the intake somehow but it makes more sense to make the line long and mount all of it to the adapter. when/if the assembly has to come off in the future it will surely be a nightmare.

In the space below the rotor blades. Is there enough room on the sides for a threaded boss?

I tried that, almost seriously botched that attempt. It may work with different fittings but i am weary of the idea, would require the making of a spacer to raise the blower away from the adapter plate and reworking of the intake ect ect

I may be a little naive on this but are you over thinking it, why not just plumb jets into the inlet elbow ?
I would imagine the concern is meth eventually having n adverse affect on the impeller blades?

I absolutely could, however that method is much less efficient and requires a much larger amount to be injected. [combo calls for 7gph and i had to inject 17gph to see a temp drop]
I may just spray it before the blower to move on and get the engine back into the car.

Oh , got it.
I guess you have to balance efficiency vs. time/mileage and ease of install.
If the car isn't a daily driver and just a fun cruiser that won't see a consistent spray
of meth, might make sense to concede on this one issue.
Not like you haven't done some amazing fab work already....just my 2 cents fwiw

I have a heavy foot, it will see the W/meth just about every time it goes into boost.

I win.


I am going to place a second smaller nozzle in the adapter plate centered (best I can) between the rear four runners. This (I hope) will provide best distribution.

Working on assembly, if it has a rubber line its vacuum. Steel braided is a nylon line inside, w/meth feed.

To late to go get the vacuum line I need, I could almost complete the assembly of I had it.
Today I got the w/meth plumbing figured out, installed the blower, fuel rails, injectors and the wiring harness. Not to bad.

That's VHT wrinkle paint. Covers up my lack of welding skill nicely.
