    Test Methods for Polymer Tubing Tensile Testing

    I am wondering if anybody knows of a existing test method (ASTM, etc.) for Tensile Testing of Polymer Tubing? Any information that can be provided will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Propane Injection + Water Injection Applications

    Franz, So the bottom line of your explanation is that you can achieve the same effect with more fuel (petrol). But my question is the following: Isn't the benefit of using propane injection is that it serves as a dual function: reducing air intake temp's and making the mixture richer thus...

    Propane Injection + Water Injection Applications

    Greg, Again, forgive my ignorance, but where do you come up with the 31psi boost pressure number and what happens once you go beyond 31psi and use propane? Thanks, Carlos

    Propane Injection + Water Injection Applications

    Whittey, I have seen a couple of turbo diesel trucks in my area using propane injection, but this is not uncommon with diesel engines looking for performance gains. I am interested in the application to petrol engines, and from what I can find, if forced induction is being used, there is no...

    Propane Injection + Water Injection Applications

    PS. Bottom line, it sounds to me that he is using the propane as an "octane booster" as well as for cooling the intake charge leading him to the higher boost setting.

    Propane Injection + Water Injection Applications

    Franz, I knew you would chime in since you have participated in almost all the propane threads that I have read. Let me present this situation to you then: Locally, there is a group of hot rodders tunning Toyota Twin Turbo Supras. The leader of the group is the one with the most experience...

    Propane Injection + Water Injection Applications

    Please excuse my ignorance, but here it goes: Currently I am modifying a NA EFI gasoline (non-diesel) engine to a turbo application. I have succeeded the first time, but now I am going into uncharted territory (larger turbo). I have been using an Aquamist Water injection system to help deter...
