I finally got around to replacing the meth pump. I used up my last bit of meth filling the tank back up. I am still undecided on whether to switch to 100% meth or stick with 80/20.

What pump did you replace it with?

100% meth will make the most power but 80/20 will take more heat out of that intake. Pretty sure I'm going to run 100%

Nothing. I might as well give it a shot right? Is there any downside to running 100%?

May as well, makes it easier to just add it from the bucket and move on instead of measuring out water. Methanol will naturally absorb water from the atmosphere anyway.

Good point. I always hated having togo. Get a gallon of water and 4 gallonnss of meth. Now i can just fill up my 5 gallon jug.

I like the 3.90s. 2nd gear is slightly longer than the 4.10s i had previously. That was the main reaso. I choose 3.90s.

12psi and a good dose of meth feels pretty righteous. I may leave it here or go up to 14psi.
