hey guys,
i have been reading alot of threads as to what people are using in their alky systems. some are running 100% methanol, some, a combination of meth. i have the smc sys., and they suggest a 50/50 mix of distilled water and denatured alcohol. some suggest that water is not good because it displaces the fuel?? while others say its good because it cleans. i will be running ~20 psi boost with the stock turbo, injectors, and intercooler. i have a chip set up for my alky sys. from turbo tweak. i have the adjustable fuel pressure regulator, along with a performance fuel pump and hot wire. what mix would be optimum for occasional track use? would that mix be different than for the street? i cant get a good feel on this. as always, thanks for any insight.
