EDIT: i think meth is something smelly that cows produce.
we are talking methanol- a single carbon chain (alcohol), all triple-bonded to hydrogen molecules. cows make methane, a single carbon ring triple bonded to hydrogen.

orgo ftw!

yup. i was intrigued and wanted to try something different. the ej207 should be good for 27 psi as well as some nitrous, but i didn't want to do nitrous and water/meth. too many things spraying in there and it seemed like too much work. so i figured i would spice up the water injection mix for a little fun.

i don't know how much power it's making- i just turned on the injection so i haven't really tuned it yet. dex and paul went for a ride while i was just running on pump gas, fwiw.

50/50 is optimal for power. water is what cools the combustion chamber- methanol is added because of the higher octane and as an additional fuel source. unless you run out of injector, i would stick with 50/50 mix. if you look in the injection section of nasioc (one of the few places that aren't riddled by assinine questions and useless posts), then you can find some good information in there, especially by Richard Leach from Aquamist (richard l). I remember a chart comparing 100% water, 100% meth and 50/50 water/meth and what it does. 50/50 is the way to go.
