    Seriously though, Brian what was your before and after timing + boost on the street? Just curious man, I got a lot of questions about it.
    Before? I probably ran about 18* timing max...on a 3.2 in the summer....spring and fall I could barely get the 3.0 to be manageable, but just simply running too much fuel to kill the KR....I bet it was in the 10.6 range.

    NOW.....with the Meth.

    Washer fluid is too diluted to actually get any type of gain. You're best just not even considering running it for any type of performance standpoint, and if you do use it, you'd have to use a 3 gph nozzle at the largest. It just simply sprays too much water into the intake. You know how crummy the performance gets on a hot humid day. I know I may confuse some people when I try to describe what I use for the solution. Believe me I've got a lot of time in messing with it....it's not completely useless, it'll keep things cool after the half way point on the track, but that's about it. I just want people to know what I've found that works and what doesn't......When I started running the 100%, I couldn't keep it from leaning out with the M5 nozzle, so I leaped to an M10 and that was perfect. I keep the AFR right around 11.8-12.1 AFR. I maxed the timing at 25....never seen any more gains running higher.

    Today at the track, I had 15psi on the gauge. I was actually pretty shocked at seeing it was that high, but I think she's done for the year on the track. So next year might bring some new fun.

    I guess i'm kinda confused. You do use it for an antidetonation tool right? And it kills KR good right? 15psi non-intercooled iss very impressive IMO. I assume this is with 0 KR on pump gas correct?
