DIY water methonal?

[bjmunderwater]

Ok so ive been thinking about building my own kit as a power adder and not as as a mpg kit. The idea kinda goes like this methanol capable pump 150-200psi, water solenoid, relay, adjustible pressure switch, and master switch, also nozzles. now what i was thinking the system would pretty easy to put together now when it come to the brass about it all was thinking to set the pressure switch at say some where around 20-25psi boost now when it comes to nozzle size that where im still a little unsure as i think that starting small and working my way up but also dont want to spend a butt on them. ok now is where yall come in any feed back/ ideas that i havent thought about or other info that would be helpful keep in mind that this is still the Beta stages of thinking

Biggest waste of time ever. I tried it with a 250psi capable pump and 3 nozzles. Did nothing but cost me money. Good cold side pipe, good intake, a better ic and I'm further ahead. If you really want more get a Elite tow power 71mm or 72mm turbo and you'll really like it. But do t waste your money on water meth, it does nothing worth while

I put it on my truck with 2 nozzels and like white monster said...it was a waste of time and money. Just a bunch of hype. Upgrade to a larger charger or a intercooler. You'll thank yourself in the long run.

So pretty much a bunch of crap then, well how do yall feel about propane then ? I already have the basics tuner deletes egr/dpf, intake cfm+ cold side pipe next step is the big money stuff or is there anything else i can play with before that?

 

[B.Warning]

I wouldn't do that either. I'm not a fan of propane at all. It has different characteristics with the way it Burns and causes alot of sh!t to build up on the heads and valves. At least it does that on a tractor.

What are you going for?? Instead of these highly unpredictable methods there are many proven combos...

Propane is way too touchy. If your going to do something, do something worth while like a lp charger.

water meth=cracked heads

propane=cracked/melted pistons

Not really going for anything at this point lol just ideas at the moment. Water methanol has been around for years the military used it on the mustang's and the thunderbolts gains were tremendous in usable power but that also was a Merlin aircraft engine . Just ideas i plan on doing either a 71 or 72 with supporting mods soon maybe a swamps crossbow set seems a good bang for the buck
