who all has made their own alky/meth kits?
Well,
I was looking at making my own meth kit possibly, and was wondering how many on here have done it, and what components did you use?
I know KP made his own, so I was interested to see, how much less it was compared to buying a snow orthe like kit.
Thanks

A DIY kit won't be much cheaper, but at least you know how it's built and it will be custom made to fit your needs.
Look at my homepage for my DIY, plus those links:

Kp is not running any meth system. I have tried talking him into it several times though.
Here's mine , I use a shurflo pump mounted low near behind the pass side fog light, the windshield reservoir is modded for a feed and return line and I use stainless braided pvc line. The hard parts I machined myself since home metal machining is now my other hobby interest.
It uses twin custom made 11GPH nozzles, and a very trick pressure regulator I designed and machined that increases alcohol flow in proportion to boost from 45psi to 160psi that is very tunable.

The machining is done by hand operation and not cnc. So it's very time consuming and I could not charge enough to justify my time spent on it for profit.
I just do this on my spare time as a hobby interest.
For the last 4 years I just used easily available parts such as found in the links above. They do work very good.

WOW, That's nice! Will you make me one? Does it increase flow with boost presser, how does that work?
As boost builds, air pressure acts upon an internal spring loaded piston which begins to move the needle into the seat restricting flow back to the reservoir. This raises pressure to the nozzles. The needle has no real surface area for the fluid pressure to act against, so it only takes small amounts of air pressure to shut down fluid flows over 200psi.
It is adjustable for initial pressure, max pressure and rate of gain.
It has a replaceable stainless needle and seat and the rest is of 6061-t6 aluminum and brass.
I was going to make a post about it but sort of thought it was of little interest to others. I wanted progressive control without electronically manipulating pump speed and this my solution.
Valves like this are used in industry for high precision metering. I suspect they are expensive though.
