^^^ Good stuff. I used the VP meth.

Talk to your tuner, but you might experiment with other ratios -- more water quenches det, more meth raises torque, both displace air and fuel, so it's a big chemistry experiment as you dial it in for max power and safety.

If you find methanol a PITA to keep on hand you can achieve similar results with 90% isopropyl alcohol, which is everywhere and dirt cheap.

Good luck -- and looking forward to details!

Thanks for the input. I'll be keeping a 5 gallon container of pure methanol on hand, cut with distilled water I'll be good for 10 gallons, that will last me a WHILE.

We did 22 runs last night and used about 1/3 gallon of 50/50. Plus I'm using a daily driven, less aggressive map for pump gas only which allows me to shut the Aquamist off to conserve when need be.
