    Yes, buy 3-5 gallons of VP M1 methanol. Then cut it yourself.

    Yes but by weight not volume. So just mix it 70/30 heavy on the meth. Or 60/40 whatever.

    Looking forward to running the meth.

    I bought a flip down LCD head unit that has AV inputs. I plan to build a custom Mini ITX PC for data logging and digital gauges with an in car UPS. Tuner will able to remote in at anytime and make adjustments

    I was reading Intake Temperatures the other night 46f ambient, Intake was about 86f. Be interesting to see the difference with Meth

    Now that your going to become a meth head junkie. Let me fill you in on a little secret.

    Buy a second tank, pick up a 3 way solenoid from eBay so you can toggle between tanks. Fill the second tank with 75/25 antifreeze/ water. Obviously heavy on the water. Then if you are getting chased by the police, flip the switch and you will have a James bond smoke screen. Bam.

    Dang no one on the spring...

    Drove the car again today after installing new manifold I tapped. No more vacc/ boost leaks

    9 psi @ 11.8 AFR

    No addtl oil at hg seam. And I think it was running down from the valve cover gasket anyway.


    So a good day here in va. Good running car with 60 degree weather

    Cut fenders. Waiting for flares: nice not to rub

    nice job on the Taps, did you thread them with an 1/8" NPT? or just push hard and self tap? (I used a tap, not sure the outcome yet on leaks going to test Thursday)

    what flares did you get? im soon realizing the magnitude of my paint Delma and might as well do them... looking for a not so aggressive look

    I used 1/4 fittings with 1/4 -18 tap.

    I tried hard tapping the last time... don't do it

    I have felony form reps on the front and ores these for the rear. But comes with fronts that I'm not gonna use.

    Get a spring that matches the lowest boost you'll ever want to run, and you can typically double the pressure amount with a boost controller. I'd say anywhere from 10-15psi spring is a solid middle ground.

    That cluster setup is sweet

    20psi is a reasonable low boost setting. Anything less might as well be NA

    Maximum Boost, Corky Bell -

    Considers that high boost? Am I missing something here? What book are you reading Raj?

    Got home from work today saw the car sitting in the garage, even with cut fenders and not fully complete (to my liking) I have to drive it up and down the road when I get home from work. So much enjoyment

    Thanks again everyone!

    Ps. Thing does a nastay brun out

    My pile never sees less than 23-24psi any more. "Low boost" is for the birds.

    You think the b28 would like 20 PSI?

    Is anyone here running 20 PSI on stock b28 daily? Pump gas?

    Probably not. That's why you MAKE IT LIKE IT.
