    Hi all,
    This is a question mainly about a size for a water/meth tank. What would a ballpark ratio of water/meth to fuel for an engine. I am aware that off boost it will be 0% rising to some when on full boost. I'm not building a racer but I imagine I will try to be driving with the turbo spooling rather than not.
    Thanks in advance. :thumbsup:

    Every setup will be different depending on how you set it up. If your running a smaller nozzle just as an octane booster and a little cooling no need to mess with the air/fuel.
    Tank capacity would be whatever you can fit that will work for your needs.

    Thanks.
    The plan with the W/M kit was octane booster/detonation suppressant and coolant as I am going to not have a intercooler, it's going on a bike and the tank is only 17litres so if I was to make the tank 2or3 litres? What do you think?

    Is there another way of using the w/m kit?

    Capcity is up to you and what you can fit, obviously a smaller tank will need filled more often.

    Some spray 100% water on a small nozzle for detonation suppresion. Some run 100% meth for cooling and more fuel. Other do mixes based on thier needs. Some just run windshield washer fluid and never think about it again.

    I use the windshield washer reservoir for it with a 50/50 water/methanol that sprays at 5 psi boost trough 1 nozle.
    The amount of used fluid is ver very low.
    With 1 liter you can go really far.
