Increase the power and efficiency of your 2000-2021 Mercedes Sprinter with Water-Methanol Systems at XDP. Water-Methanol systems require heat and boost in order to instantly vaporize the water into steam, thus preventing potential damage from water being injected into the engine. There typically must be a minimum amount of boost and heat inside the engine for Water-Methanol to be injected. Water-Methanol Systems are plumbed into the intake and typically spray a 50/50 mixture of water to methanol. Water-Methanol Systems cannot operate in low RPM and low boost situations as the water will not vaporize into steam. Typically blended at a 50/50 ratio Water-Methanol provides maximum cooling and gains in power and efficiency.
Water-Methanol Injection functions best on vehicles that are regularly used for towing or competition-use. Water-Methanol mixtures can be purchased already blended and ready to pour in, or it is a common practice to make your own mixture using water and windshield washer fluid that contains methanol. Shop XDP to search all the Water-Methanol Systems, Water-Methanol Plumbing, and Water-Methanol Reservoirs available for your truck. The resulting cooler intake charge and more complete burn of the fuel from the Water-Methanol Injection results in a significant increase in power. Water-Methanol Systems benefit the engine by cooling the intake and exhaust air temps as well as providing more efficient combustion from the added methanol. Snow Performance and Banks Power are a few of the manufacturers available that offer Water-Methanol systems for your diesel.
