Some of us are lucky enough to have chemical supply houses local to us. Others buy meth at the track(they may have it at the one you are going too). And for people who have no meth supply, buy HEET at your local parts store. I tried windshield washer fluid, and it helped, but much less than pure meth. WW fluid caused a 50rwtq dip in my dyno graphs upon the initial hit, and didn't drop IAT's as much as pure meth.

Vp m3 here. I would use real straight methanol.

where did you get that?

BOONE

Straight from vp racing fuels. If you google vp racing fuels you can read about it under specialty fuels. And look under distributors for your area, you can save the hazard fee by going to one directly, or a race shop. It cost more than some but its cleaner and dryer than most. I just buy a small amount at a time so moisture don't become a problem. M3 is 3% oxygen so it has a small amount more power, and its easy to tune. Don't ask me what it cost I don't remember. Its a little extra. Just call them.

I use windshield De-Icer, I recommend buying the -30 below zero. It contains more meth.

you just use it or do you mix it with water?

where can i get "-30 below zero?"


@ homedepot do they sell just straight up methanol?

If your going to Moroso, buy it there. Most all tracks sell racing methanol (sunoco, VP, etc.) right from a pump.

I just paid $4 per gallon for Sunoco Alky at Bradenton Motorsports Park last night.

Also, most speed shops will sell you 5gallon drums for $35-$45.
