Meth vs Intercooler

I know i'm diggin up an older thread. I have read this all the way through too and learned alot. But i have some questions as well.

I just bought a progressive kit from a gentleman on club gp for $110.00 shipped.

I don't really want to run the meth on the wiper fluid tank because I DD my car. But I do like the idea of having a sensor that tells me when it's low.

What do you all use if you don't use the Washer tank. I've been looking at Devils Tanks and they are pretty affordable. Also where's the best place to mount them and the pump.

TIA

aem makes tanks for them devils own. and they usually come with low level sensors in them. you can mount the tank and pump in the trunk.
 


depending upon the size or shape you can fit it in the engine bay like i did. i had everything within 2 feet of where it was going when i was done. not sure if i posted this in here already:

no low level sensor, but id just crack it open when i was filling up with gas to see how much was left. you really dont use it as fast as you think you would. a bottle of washer fluid lasted me about two weeks and when i switched to straight meth it took me a month to clear it out again because i wasnt spraying so heavily on low boost levels anymore.
 
Cool i was thinking i'd try to start spraying on 8lbs of boost it seems like that's what everyone esle is doing. Also is a wideband a total must for tuning ? Cause them damn things are expensive.

Here is the tank setup i was thinking of getting.
3 quart tank and float level sensor DevilsOwn Injection I was thinking of just running an open cone vs the fwi and mounting the tank to the fender where the filter would usually go and mounting the pump near it or inside the bumper like others have done.
 
im sure that would all work. a wideband really helps to dial it in, but what youre going to want to do is tune it for without the meth, then start spraying and add timing and boost accordingly.
 
Cool That's what i planned to have done. I don't have a tuner but i have a friend (Reptile) that has DHP and HP tuners.

I'm running a 3.25 with my current setup of: AL104's, Ported TB & SC, 180* TSTAT, SSAC's, & FWI. I currently have 1.4* of kr and running around 14.5* of timing.

This is without a new tune from the headers being installed.

windshield washer fluid already has methyl but only like 20-30%. i tapped my methanol setup to my washer tank. got my pump mounted where my A/C condenser use to be. running a tb spacer and a M7 IIRC. since im turbo now i can fully utilize the alky/meth system than when i was using the gen 3 m90. btw, wideband would make tuning very helpful.
