93 octane + water/meth vs 117 octane
#16
"Stone the Crows Joe" Really. I emailed EVO and they never replied to my questions which means NO.
When will they be actually testing it?, weeks, months?
Once I get my car back I am doing this. I just have to sort out the tune thats all

Maybe they just think you wouldn't want to wait anymore to have it done perfectly?

They have had the system built and installed in my car before the mile but they ran out of time before the mile to tune for it(they wanted to make sure the C16 was perfect first).Since then they have gotten very busy with other builds so it has been put on the back burner.It didn't help that I gave them more work to do on my own car by improving on a few things.KPG is scheduled to pick it up for me July17 and I really want to keep that date and have it sent back even if it means no water /meth tune because i want to have some fun with it this summer.I could always have it tuned for it at the end of the summer since Todd and I are looking to do a deep sea fishing trip he paid for off the coast of Montauk two years ago.lol

Well my car will be there for another month for sure as all the 12 mm head studs they were supposed to receive were bad from the manufacturer. So I have plenty of time.

More info for Canadians looking at doing this.
I just logged onto the Recochem Inc website in Canada and looked up the methanol content (MSDS) of their -40C Turbo Power blue washer fluid that I have tons of in my garage.
Would you beleive it, it is 40 to 50% methanol. This stuff is dirt cheap $1.75 a gallon on sale.
From what I can tell that is pretty high as Tony from EPL was saying maybe 20% but I know it depends on the - temp rating of course.
For once in Canada the bloody cold weather is an advantage as we get this stuff cheap and it's available all over the place!
I am pleased I am not doing cams now. I can buy a *hit load of this stuff and run it 24 x 7 yee haa

also, where did you mount your tank? I'm curious to see what/where others have decided as tank location.
#25
The tank is mounted in the front trunk....

I've read claims of 25% to 30% increases in octane rating using a 50/50 mix of water-methanol with pump gas.
#27
So give or take we are saying about 109 when running 91 and 40-50% water meth, either way well over 100...very interesting.

heck using 93 octane it is equivalent to C16. Not sure if the Meth % though.

glad to see the other tuners falling in line now.
