    that meth kit for this car beings its ssm90 is quite possibly the best idea marshal has had his entire life lol.

    its even cost effective and less of a pain in the dick than an intercooler.

    meth > short stack thats for damn sure.

    full size maybe a different story but vs a short stack go meth

    What do I need to do for a methanol kit? Injectors and fuel pump?

    I'm kind of partial to Intercoolers. They make HP and are the one of the best ways to get more power out a M90.

    E85 is great if you have it.

    you don't need bigger injectors or an upgraded fuel pump for methanol. if a fuel pump is going to fail, it will fail in the summer or winter. you need to learn to get information from other sources than zzp. that methanol kit for sale on the classifieds is complete. all you need to do is install it, fill the reservoir with methanol and go. some people say to lean the air fuel ratio, other people say not to, because when you inject methanol, your air fuel ratio will go rich.

    Okay seems pretty easy so the meth tank is separate you mount it in the trunk how much meth does it hold? How much do you actually use? I'm assuming there are different jets or nozzles? What kinda gains? Pulley drop?

    quick question, do they make a ssm98 pulley smaller then a 3.4? iirc they dont get to small. looks like they hit the snout faster being they are off set.

    being you have a N*, you would drill and tap that adapter plate and put the spray nozzle in there. thats the hard part.

    When you have to choice to pick FS or SS , it's retarded to choose the SS. When your only choice is none or SS. Then I say SS
