Add Water-Methanol Injection to your tractor if you're looking for more power, efficiency, and lower EGT's. Typically blended at a 50/50 ratio Water-Methanol provides maximum cooling and gains in power and efficiency. 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 cannot simply be sprayed at any time, there must be a certain level of boost and heat already built up before it can be injected. Water-Methanol Systems cannot operate in low RPM and low boost situations as the water will not vaporize into steam.
Water-Methanol Injection functions best on vehicles that are regularly used for towing or competition-use. Water-Methanol's reduction in heat in conjunction with a more complete burn can increase the power significantly in your diesel engine.

Snow Performance and Banks Power are a few of the manufacturers available that offer Water-Methanol systems for your diesel. 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. The resulting cooler intake charge and more complete burn of the fuel from the Water-Methanol Injection results in a significant increase in power.
