meth ?

ive been running a 50/50 mix since i got meth.
i keep hearing and reading that the tvs loves the high octane stuff
e-85 is not near me
from personal experience my tvs loves meth i keep turning it up and turning it on earlier and the car just kept gaining power

no my question, what are the benefits of running a stronger mix like a 80/20 or 90/10... my iat2s are very very very low, and my timming is way up. would it still help if i ran a stronger mix or am i looking in the wrong place. should i stick with my 50/50 and just go about my business.

also any questions let me know ill answere when i see them

The guys @ AIS told me they had the best results to use a 75% mix

i keep seeing diff things, i asked texted fred a little while ago, but you know how that goes haha
im interested to see how far it can be taken, i just read the post with a 3.15 pulley tvs car making close to 330whp on e85. id like to see what my car would do with much better octane

so no other opinions

the more Meth added to the mix, the more potential power you will have. Which is why i went with 90/10 mix. From what i have heard it may eat the coating off the rotors but to my understanding, it doesn't effect much.

If you're able to command all the timing you want on 50/50.. and your intake temps suit you.. I don't think you'll gain anything from upping it.. You're just spraying extra methanol for no reason...


It's like running race gas and not tuning for it... Pointless if you don't bump timing, etc
