A little further information on this kit. I've spoken with Steve the creator about running straight racing methanol which is a much better chemical and will produce better gains. I noticed this was used over on the turbo buick boards for a few years now. The problem is the pump, since methanol is a much more corrosive chemical, Steve informed me the kit was designed for denatured alcohol, and that the newer kits with external pump are built with methanol in mind. However, he told me that the pump will work with methanol if you add Klotz lubricant which is a fuel lubricant, he informed me the pump will not see excelerated wear by using this. The reason to use racing methanol not only can it be picked up either at your local vp or race fuel supplier, it has a 118 octane property, and is cheaper then denatured the price is usually $2.00-5.00 a gallon. And home depot sells the denatured for 7-9 a gallon, it makes sense over all.
