Good stuff Ted. I'll keep watching this thread and gathering more good info. I'll see you and your shop mid June for my upgrade to the meth kit/voltage boost/smaller pulley/8 rib/gauges/= MORE HORSEPOWER.
I just can't seem to get enough. Road trip from Lou. KY to Waterbury CT.

I'M PUMPED.

When Meth hits incoming air charge before the throttle body under High pressure of the pump and nozzle, it converts from a Liquid to a gas, anyone who paid attention is science class Knows How much it can drop Air temps Below Ambient.
The colder the Air entering the blower the colder it will be exiting the blower, Artificial Refrigerator

Know one Really Knows the exact Octane of Methanol, Estimates range from a low of 120 to a high of 140 Octane, What is Octane?, the ability of a given fuel to resist detonation, This allows us to run a little more timing which keeps EGTs down and a lot more Boost On Pump Gas, also more consistant power the longer your in the throttle.

It is starting to be widely known that the factory fuel system can support right at about 600 Crank Horsepower, then fuel pressure starts to drop off from about 5000 RPM and Up, we saw this on this car, at 11.5 A/F without the Meth, We then back off the Commanded A/F to 12.5 which in turn takes some demand off the fuel pump and maintains fuel pressure just about to redline, then let the Meth bring the A/F back down to 11.5 A/F, this is the fuel suppliment part.

We do like a little water in the mix, About 10% to Help Keep combustion Chambers Sparkling Clean, it does this with Steam generated buring the water, a Clean combustion Chamber is a Powerful one.

Thank you all for your interest in this system.

Ted.
