I'm going tonight so I will see how it goes. I'm not as excited now as I was since it seems the dwell isn't going to help me out with the breaking up.

I don't think I've heard of anyone gapping their plugs smaller than .022 and that's what mine are at now.

I ended up gapping my plugs to .020 and it ran flawlessly. I ended up making 614rwhp and 561 rwtq @ 25.6 psi

Was that with 100% meth or what?

No, I run a 49% meth and 51% water mixture straight from Summitt performance called Boost Juice.

Jay would you mind emailing your tune for that big dyno run?

When I get back on later on tonight, I'll see if I can email it to you.

WOW!!!!!! That's one of the coolest things ever. It does burn....very very hot, but you can't see it. I heard it light, but their were no flames. When I held my hand close to it, it didn't take me long to move it.

The Boost Juice is 49/51 meth to water.

I come from a land down under
This is why I mix my own and adjust the mix till it won't light ;)
(I use it in the washer tank)

I did my initial mix and added some bug remover detergent and it was enough to tip the mix back to flammable...... turns out it's mostly alcohol ;)

Had to adjust with more water.

Has anybody run just the cheap blue windshield washer fluid. I know that contains some amount of methanol in it. I plan on going to a water/meth kit soon.

Jay. Does the performance gains from the water/meth kit justify buying it.

Wow Jay that is awesome. I can't wait to see your map. How much timing were you running at that boost level?
I think I'm running 18* of timing in the higher rpms and higher boost levels. I will be on this afternoon and I'll try to load my file on here, but I have a hard time doing complicated computer maneuvers............:biglaugh:

Without the meth, I had my car dyno'd at 473rwhp and 431rwtq on 93 octane. Now it's tuned to daily drive it at 576rwhp and 558rwtq..........so I'd say it's worth it.
