With all this talk about PCV and carbon build up issues it made me think of possible fixes. One one would be to have BG Full Service done and throw BG 44k into the tank every 5000 miles there on after. Option two, water/methanol injection kit.
Having the ability to spray methanol into your intake manifold system not only as a performance booster but a cleaner at the same time has me sold and I got bit by the methanol injected bug. What I am interested in is finding current methanol users to give back some solid data as to document how much of a difference a methanol infused GDI EcoBoost engine would have versus a similarity equipped vehicle without the meth kit in regards to carbon build up.
It's no question carbon build up is a issue in GDI engines let alone our EcoBoost engines specifically (thanks to BG's tests on the SHO) but it's detrimental effect on performance is my main concern. The more performance modifications I add not only do I notice the improvement in power, I also feel the difference when my car needs a bottle of quality fuel injector cleaner or has bad gas (no pun intended). I feel there is no point to keep modifying an engine with an obvious power robbing issue without taking care of it first. I also believe if we can understand methanol injection more and become more familiar with it we can all reep it's benefits not only in performance but also engine longevity and there would be more safely equipped methanol injected 3.5L EcoBoost vehicles prowling around.
So does any methanol injected member have access to a boresscope?
