I also did a little test on the windshield washer fluid with 2 bottles of heet in it. I poured out a small puddle in a safe location. Using stick matches I lit one and threw it in the small puddle. Instantly put it out. Lit another match and held it at the edge of the puddle for a couple seconds then touched the edge of the puddle. Put it out when it touched the puddle. Lit a third match and held it at the edge of the puddle and it did eventually light after several seconds. It continued a slow nearly invisible flame until I shook the puddle around a bit in the container it was in and that put it out.
So windshield washer fluid with two bottles of heet is flammable when exposed to a direct flame for a period of time. It took maybe 5 seconds for the 3rd match to ignite it.

I still say that even running 50% ethanol if I could only choose one ethanol or pump + meth I'd still go ethanol all day every day. After using meth on top of ethanol I'm now convinced that using both is the way to go.
Since you're running E you don't really need the octane of the methanol, you need the water to pull the heat. I'd stick to straight WWF in your case.....and switch to an M10 nozzle

I figured having a little higher methanol content would allow me to trigger it on earlier without issues. I'm not as concerned with running a large nozzle as I as getting it on early at as low of boost as possible. Now I have another issue. Car is running great except I noticed some of the shift points seemed a hair off. I noticed on a log from today is shifted early at wide open around 6200 rpm and 15 psi just at the max of the map. I was shifting at 7000-7200 and seeing 20 psi on my guage and on the log it would flat line about 15 since it was maxed. I figured I might lose a pound with the intake, but the early shift got my attention. I was only hitting 70.4% throttle. Blade physically moves the full range and hits the stop. Tested with scanner and car off I'm at .5 volts at 0% and 4.5 at wot and reads 100% throttle. Took it out for another drive and running great get to a safe spot and sure enough only 70.4% throttle. Seems like the power is there and the only thing it is effecting is shift points. Always something.
