Hi there, this is my first post so bear with me. I'm currently installing my 150d system and water methanol inj to my 1.6 tdci, the system is micro switch activated. If my max rpm is 5k, what is a safe rpm to floor the throttle?, as I know to do this at say 1500rpm in 5th would be bad.
That depends on a number of factors;
1) The amount of nitrous you are adding - up to 25 could be used at ANY rpm
AS LONG AS
2) The engine is FREE & ABLE to accelerate
For example you could use ANY amount of nitrous in 1st gear at ANY rpm but if you tried to add say 50 HP when you were in top gear struggling to drive up a steep hill at ANY rpm, you could damage your pistons by activating the nitrous system.
These are 2 extremes and obviously as the conditions change the safe time to use the system will change.
