methanol injection
I just bought the alkycontrol kit today from Julio. If I'd known you were selling his kit I could have saved 10 bucks. I thought it was a scam. Julio told me you were a distributor for him. Thanks anyway and good luck with your new business venture.
I am not sure I want to get into this again. I refer you to the discussion in the "Why it's WATER Injection" thread.
There is a problem if the kit referred to varies out put by voltage to the pump. If the voltage is too low, the injection fluid will just dribble in rather than being atomized. This will result in unequal distribution of the injection fluid and much less intake cooling. Injection pressure, droplet size, nozzle placement are all important. You are making a dry manfiold act like a wet manifold, among other things. The guy who introduced the idea of using water injection on aftermarket SC cars was Gregg Carroll. He is an engineer who makes what is the benchmark kit in terms of quality and well thought out/validated engineering with quality compoenets. Unfortunately, he priced himeself out of the market with his most complete, high end kits ending up at over $1,000. Just one of the many features was a high pressure reservoir, so that there is no lag while the pump spools up. The system only injects under high pressure. There is a lot more to this done right than a relay and a pump.
I do not know this product, and it may be just great. I am speaking in general, but am also somewhat skeptical about common materials being compatible with 1:1 methanol/water and incompatible with M100. Compatibility is an issue though, again among the many.

Would this kit be beneficial for a high compression race motor as an alternative to race gas? If I would be able to use it and pump gas instead of 110 octane race gas it could be of value. One question I have is method of delivery. What would meter its injection in the absence of boost?
Hi rskrause, I am not on here to agrue with you like whats going on in the "Why it's WATER Injection" thread.
The system i sell in my opion is the best stand alone progressive system around, I will not ever spray H2O into my motor, # 1 because its not a fuel, Ok if you like the Carroll water injection system go for it .
Good luck
