IAT - keep meth nozzle with E85?
Converting to E85.
Have water/meth installed, with nozzle 8" upstream of IAT sensor.
While E85 will drop the ICT (in cylinder temperature), I would think cooling the charge air (will be HOT, with 30 psi boost) down should benefit the engine (denser air = more O2 into the cylinder), irrespective of the much larger ICT drop from E85 (vs pump gas).
Keep the water/meth spray to cool down the charge air after the intercooler?
