meth...the big unknown
no my afr are around 10.9-11.0, they are 11.2 ish without the meth. you can say its stupid but thats your opinion. im not an idiot, if it didnt work i wouldnt be running it, i do know what im doing.
Washer fluid will never allow more power than a car with a proper tune and the proper pulley size. The only thing you can hope for is to recover some of the power you lost by running too small a pulley.
This has been extensively tested and proven and explained by ZZP. We have a standing $1000 challenge to prove us wrong. No one has taken us up.

For one. we dont care.
IF you use meth, you see power gains.
Doesnt matter if its from power lost running too small of a pulley.. you still got that power back.
SO.... if you want it, get it... Despite what ZZP said.

lol i cant wait to get meth...with so many different applications for it including sc and tc....why would so many ppl buy it if it didnt help in some way..im buying it to help with cooling cuz ill be running a 2.7... and according to everyone else i will see gains as well...
i like how OTT is all for it and there people use it...and ZZP is against it...OTT FTW

Water added to fuel slows the burn rate which has a similar effect of lowering ignition timing. This cannot be overcome by boost except in low RPM situations where lower timing doesn't cause such a loss in HP and parasitic blower losses are lower. So in theory, you could gain some torque but HP will always suffer over less boost and no washer fluid. We plan on doing a graphical chart in a manner that easy for new modders to understand shortly. Stay tuned...

As far as it being popular? Only in this market because it's new and most people don't dyno their cars w/ and without. 1/2 water 1/2 gas was very popular for a while; the patches on the bottom of your feet to remove impurities were popular; stones for the washing mathine instead of soap, magnets for your fuel lines or for your ankles/wrists; electrolysis kits for under the engine to make hydrogen and oxygen. All of these sold millions of dollars. The argument you're using is ad populum, meaning that if everyone is doing it, it must be right. It's not. Do the reasearch by checking in other forums using supercharged cars. Find out what mixtures they are spraying and you'll quickly learn that washer fluid isn't a good mod. If you find a kit that sprays 90 or 100% alcohol, it will work and work well once you tune it in but don't be confused into thinnking that a high water content mix will perform a similar task.

Do you have a before and after IAT using washer fluiid? Do you have before and after MAP readings? How about MAF?
No im saying add more water than justa 90/10 mix...
Once again, no one uses just straight washer fluid... If they are smart they mix in a bottle of heet or two.

ethanol glycol. It would form the same function of knock supression by slowing the burn rate and the addition would cool the charge but the motor wouldn't like it, the cat would get detroyed, the emissions would be terrible and the HP would still drop.

more timing doesnt mean more power
i personally like 70/30 mix. More water didnt help when tuning.

hey blueberry have you heard of ethanol glycol? I have heard of ethylene glycol, propolene glycol, isopropol alchohol...ethanol glycol? huh? more misinformation....
