Your methanol setup

alright, i DID search around for this, and only came across info about methanol injection.

what i'm lookin for is, people that have methanol injection. what mix are you running, in combination with what nozzle, where did you put the nozzle. and lastly....why are you running that mix.

50/50 Mix (closer to 70/30 in the winter). 5 gph Nozzle. Injecting into the intake tube.

I'm running the 5gph because I bought a 3, 5, and 7 and desided to start out with the 5... and I'm pleased with the results so I've not changed it.

I am thinking of going with a bigger jet and injecting pre turbo.

Well, lol, im sure the main reason why most of us that are spraying before the TB is because we dont have the spacer.

Doesnt matter though. Works the same way.

I'm not sure if it applies to these cars but in other makes its better to spray post throttle body because it kills the TPS sensors on some cars.

I'm running 50/50 I get methanol from a place 26 miles north of here for 2.80 a gallon then I get distilled water from the grocery store and mix my own. Far less expensive than using the snow performance or devils own premixed stuff which is 40-50 shipped to your door for only 4 gallons. I go through a gallon a week, which could be in part to the large nozzle, a leak, or evaporation since my tank is not completely sealed due to my filler neck project not being completely finished.

Previously I would have to take out my headlight to fill the tank, pump is in the drivers side fenderwell. So I made this filler neck to make things easier and I also now have a special funnel with a brass fitting on the bottom that screws right on for leak free filling.







I use a Rebel Auto Worx LS4 adapter plate with a 1/8NPT tap and a AEM water injection kit, 550cc nozzle the biggest one with the AEM kit

I recommend starting off with a 50/50 mix of methanol and distilled water. We did lots of testing and for most people this will make the best power while keeping things safe with your tune.

I'm using the ottp spacer between the tb and sc. 3gph nozzle, running a 30/70 mix since I'm only at 20* timing. When the weather is cool I see 11.2afr at redline.

isn't Meth going to mess up sensors if you do pre turbo or supercharger?
