Meth install ideas..tank/controller

Just got the Devils Own meth kit and was wondering how everyone has theirs set up. I got the 2.5 gallon sumptank and am trying to figure how I want to put it in the trunk and also where does everyone put the controller. Please post pics of your setup, thanks!!

I have my AIS Comp Tank under the trunk carpet where the spare tire used to live

I don't have a progressive controller but im sure it would fit nicely in that little drawer where your trunk button is

Mount it on the side of your trunk so you can keep your spare

I mounted it in the left corner as close to the seat as possible. Still had to put one screw into the carboard piece but I can get to the spare. It is pretty tough but that was the farthest out of the way I could put it. But I have to say I love all the extra hp i got from it.

I have the controller that runs off a vacum line so I couldn't mount it like that. I put mine in the tray under the aftermarket radio. Just cut a little hole for the wires and line, put a piece of aluminum in there and 3M taped it on. I will have to post pictures of how I did everything.

Not the best pictures but I'm at work and this is what I have on my phone. The second bracket is on it now, had it in the oven baking the powdercoat on. I just figured black looks better than aluminum.





and just a little something to bump it up to 75%!!

I didn't want the wires and hose exposed, more from an asthetics point of view. Plus with cutting a hole in the dash kit I didn't have to run any bends in the line. I did a T off the boost line coming through the firewall straight to the controller. It could be done and work fine but I wanted it all hidden.

since i never used my spare i put the tank and pump right in the middle of the trunk and put the controller in the little coin cubby. also had my wot box there as well. that way i could see the lights to make sure everything was still activating and working

I got it from a speed shop right outside the base. I think it was $48, the same I paid for the devils own 50/50 with shipping.

How fast do you go through 5 gallons of meth? I'm looking to buy a meth kit as well, just wondering if I'll have to constantly buy meth.

That depends on your tune, what % you run, the nozzle(s) you use, how you have the controller set, and how you drive.

I just finnished my first 4 gallon case. I am running a 75% mix so each batch in a 5 gallon gas can, I mix 2 gallons of 50% and 1 gallon of 100% to make the 75% mix (3 gallons toal) . I have 2 gallons of 100% left but I also had a bad check valve so my car has been sucking meth even when I was in vacum so I used way more then I should have for about a month and a half. Now that it's fixed I should probably go through a tank (2.5 gallon tank) a month depending on how I am driving.
