Wooooo Hooooo Methanol ***video***

The dyno date is close enough now that i threw some methanol in and started tuning idle and so forth. It sounds like death trough a megaphone. I am starting to have second thoughts about it now

sound nice , make sure you put some gas before you finish with it and let it run for a wile so the lines and injectors get clean by the way no blow of valve?

Good advice i didnt and clean up sucks.
Drain the meth put in some reg gas start it up shut it down start it on reg gas let it run out put the meth in and your good to go.

It sound really good for a street port.

I want to see it run, but im sure not as much as you.
Good luck.
