Boost Juice

So where do you guys with meth kits get your boost juice (snow performances bottled meth/water mix) or any other kind of bottled meth/water mixes? And how much do you get it for?

I'm thinking about installing my meth kit FINALLY and I want to buy some pre-made stuff...the snow performance boost juice i've seen selling for 75 BUCKS!!! for four gallons!!! WTF IS THAT CRAP...There's a diesel place online selling it for 28 bucks for four gallons...but can it be had cheaper?? Because that's still $7 a gallon

Yeah you can...but I don't want to....I want to be able to run around 25 degrees of timing...not like 20...My 100 octane tune runs 24 and she flies ....I have tuned my car soooo many times that I can actually tell the difference with just changing timiing alone by 2 degrees

Just make sure there are no detergents in it. The wal mart crap is just a 30/70 mix meth/water with some blue dye added.

it's lean enough to freak people out. one must keep in mind that i am injecting an alternate fuel source as well. methonal has a lower stoic rating than gasoline. it also will not really show up on the a/f side of it, but it does on the egt temps.

im still tweaking on the a/f / PE mode in my car, since the water injections hits a lot faster then i originally planned, i need to adjust the table a bit to keep the a/f somewhat static across the board. if you do the calculations on it, i would be sitting at 11.5 a/f. no where near what im commanding, but it gets the job done.

So you guys are saying windshield washer fluid is the way to go (money wise)?? Ahhh I just hate the fact of putting that stuff in my car....I told my dad about the windshield washer fluid and he was like WHAT?!?!?!? lol

So that stuff from walmart, it's a 30/70 mix? I'm guessing 30 of meth and 70 of water?

And how quickly does it take you guys to go through 4 gallons?

And yeah, i'm on a 2.5 pulley running stock timing...I can run a tad bit more timing but I haven't had time to take my car out and tune lately....but with the meth I want to be able to run at least 21 degrees....

When I ran the 24 degrees with 100 octane, I could light up second gear like nothing just by romping on it, no clutch dump....it was great

i have used windshield washer fluid for a long time. i did it in my talon, and now the css. i prefer to tune with something i can get quickly when i need it. i myself perfer it this way because when you're out in the middle of no where, and run out of straight methonal. you run a huge risk.

Washer fluid here also. Its dirt cheap and its about a 50/50 mix in our area(fricken cold here). The color that you see in it is only a slight dye added to it. Other then the color throwing everyone off it works just fine.

Haven't really noticed a difference between the two but I am usually not in boost that much so its not really spraying that much. I dont think it would be much different when you mix the washer fluid with the heet just the boost juice is red instead of being blue.

If you are setup right you really don't go through too much of it daily driving. Obviously when you really run the car you are giong to go through a good amount.

What kits are everyone using? I'm running the Snow Performance Stage 2 one.

I wonder if you can't get pure methanol from some industrial supply place and mix it yourself with distilled water? Might be cheaper that way?
