Question Alky questions

Looked arond but couldn't find much on the subject. What are the side efects to alky injection? I know alcohol destorys rubber and such, wouldn't this kill the emmisions equipment after time, evap canister and lines sucking up the vapors?

Also, isn't there a preferable ratio for alcohol to gas? I thought I read some where that alcohol injection should be 10-20% of the total fuel mixture. What are the nozzles on some of these kits flowing?

1 side effect is that it is very addicting and owners tend to feel the need to boost 22+psi the time!!

Boosting 22+ is something I look foreward to, that is an addiction that I will soon have.

EVOL DEO- From what I've read so far, you'll be good for about 2-3 tanks of gas, for the track...no idea. I've found stuff locally for under $3 a gallon for straight meth, no additives.

I would still like to know if there are any short or long term damaging effects that I should keep my eye on.
