Default Methyl Hydrate for ALKY system

Installing my dual nozzle ALKY control kit right now. Before we start tuning (next week) I need to decide on what to run. I've been told Home Depot carries Methyl Hydrate, I have not checked the H.D. down the street, but I assume they do as well... What do you guys run and where do you purchase it??? Thanks for the help...

We run 50/50 water/mehanol in the Syclone. I get the methanol at the track.

Are you talking about a methanol injection. If so I hear that windshield washer fluid works if you get the right kind. . My work has a 55 gallon drum of washer fluid and it burns. I hear that if it will light it will work. I was looking at putting a system on my GTP. Anyone else have any input on this???

We use VP M1 here, tunes great, provides more octane, and is colorless so it will not stain.

Methyl hydrate is pure meth. It is sold in Canada at all big box renovation stores for ~7$ for 3.97L (a gallon??) I've used it for the past 5 years with no problems.
