Default Best Budget Injection Combination?

There are plenty different options for ijnection systems (such as the one sold by AIS).

I realize you can run straight Methanol, but thats not necessarily cheap OR easy to attain.

There is always washer fluid, HEET, denatured alcohol, and water.....or any combination of the above.


thoughts?

Meth is cheap enough for the amount used, thats the route I always choose.

between $4-4.50/g why not use pure meth.
If you keep your foot in it enough that you are worried about the price of meth just think about how many gallons of gas you will go through to use that 1g of meth.

$4.50/gal. isn't cheap, and as I said, its not always that easy to get ahold of. So I'm trying to weigh my options.

1g of methanol might last you 2-6 weeks depending on your driving habits.
thats comes down to fractions of a penny a mile.

you can get a 5g container from VP so you need not worry about running out.
