SLAMMER Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 I AGREE!! I have been using ALKY CONTROL on my Vette for 4 years now. Good kit great customer sevice. Julio is great about helping out with any questions you may have I spent 1/2 hour getting info and had Julio explain how his set up works. I have had to replace a pump a year ago. Got some water in my METH. I RUN 100% METH ONLY. Julio was great diagnosing weather to rebuild or replace. Rust on the bolts ment the pump was shot. ALKY CONTROL FOR ME.

Steve@LPM Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I pieced together a pretty slick system using some of the Snow Performance kit on a Ford GT. Ended up using a 3 gallon fuel cell. Finding a place to put that was the biggest challenge lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 I think AIS makes a tank that fits the rear cubby of a C6. AEM makes a good kit too. That's what I'm ordering to keep my Vortech IAT's in order. I saw 198F on the dyno today and the tune was pulling 4* of timing. That's a decent amount of power I'm throwing away without meth.

Unreal Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 AEM will not support or work long with 100% meth. Alky control is the only kit I've seen setup to run 100% meth. If you want to do 50/50 then go for it, but you are missing out on a lot of the goodness. Sooner or later you will be upgrading to SS lines because the plastic lines crank/split/leak. Run all SS lines with whatever kit you get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 The AEM website says it works with 100% meth, they just don't recommend it for health and safety reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unreal Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Anything with all the plastic lines will deteriorate. Plus teh pump is setup for push loc lines so if you want to adapter later you can't even do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quadracr Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 How often do you need to fill the tank? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two Fangs Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 It depends on how large your jet is, how large your tank is, and how often you find yourself in a scenario where the meth is spraying. I run a 50/50, but it is solely for cooling, since I am strictly E85. Water can cool the charge more readily than straight meth, which is my main objective; plus I really don't need a car that can't pass a breathalyzer after injesting two different undiluted types of alcohol. Those looking for more power will find about 4% more of it when using straight meth, when compared to 50/50 water/methanol injection. Under boost, I typically see boost IATs below ambient, which is way cool. Another pun, which interestingly has nothing to do with geometry, for those of you following along at home.

Unreal Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I filled up when I installed my kit 8-9 months ago, haven't refilled it yet. Just picked up some more because it has to be running low sooner or later. It only sprays when you hit a set boost level so 99% of the time I drive the car it doesn't use any. Intakes temps yesterday when it was 110F outside were right around 75F. Not bad at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
