Increase the power and efficiency of your 2014-2019 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel with Water-Methanol Systems at XDP. Water-Methanol Systems cannot operate in low RPM and low boost situations as the water will not vaporize into steam. There typically must be a minimum amount of boost and heat inside the engine for Water-Methanol to be injected. Water-Methanol is ideal for vehicles that are used for towing or competition use. Heat and boost are both required with Water-Methanol Systems in order to instantly vaporize the water into steam which then cools the incoming intake charge. Water-Methanol Systems are plumbed into the intake and typically spray a 50/50 mixture of water to methanol.
Water-Methanol Systems function by using water to cool the intake and exhaust temps and increase the efficiency of combustion. 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. 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. Visit XDP to check out our selection of Water-Methanol Systems, Water-Methanol Plumbing, and Water-Methanol Reservoirs for your truck! Snow Performance and Banks Power are a few of the manufacturers available that offer Water-Methanol systems for your diesel. Due to the nature of how Water-Methanol works, the systems will not be very beneficial for vehicles that are driven lightly or simply cruise on the freeway.
