Alky Injection What do you guys think would happen if pure alky were to be spray through a root style blower? Intake backfire? pre ignition? I'm sure after time the alky will wear the teflon off the rotors..... maybe some water to keep it stable.... haha.
Also, running pure water, does that lean out a car?

Re: Alky Injection I think if use ethanol instead of methanol it won't corrode the blower.
I don't think teflon is effected by either but methanol is hard on aluminum.
You will need a wideband and need to reduce your fueling and then it should work very well IMO.
Add a little water though.
