Default Engine bogging down at lower RPM

I ran the car on AMD Technics rollers on the 27th June; it showed that bellow about 2700rpm, the car made more torque without the water/methanol injection. From that point on, the torque was higher and thus the power also.

I am injecting about 1.1 ltr/min but I was suprised buy these results. I have aadjusted the controller to start injecting around 2500rpm now, so hopefully I'll be getting that little bit more out of her.

I though you have experienced more torque at low rpm before, I could have remembered it wrong.

Default Re: Engine bogging down at lower RPM

I was running 70% methanol on those runs and I got more all through out but with 50:50 I can feel it slow and then pick up again. Once it picks up i get more power through the rest of the range. I may get a second comtroller and hook it up to one of the three injectors to give a more pogressive introduction and limit the flow low down.

I'm in Arizona on holiday right now though
