I dont get why thats like the only one. Im about 20 miles from there. And while sure yes thats "close" it still isnt practical. Ive just recently been noticing a whole bunch of other power gas locations sort of around me and Ive been wondering why they dont have it too.

I will keep my ****ty alky kit, that works like a charm each and everyday. 3 years now over 30k on it, failed once, and fixed the problem before it made other problems. Maybe if people wouldn't tune to the ragged edge on the alky if something happened it wouldn't instantly grenade. But hey it can't be done so im gonna keep doing it.

Been running meth for 5 years and 40K. No problems here.
Only had to replace a pump once and i did that for maintenance reasons.

IMO as long as you have the right failsafes, monitor afr, and do routine checks you shouldn't have issues with using meth.

just suck it up.

i only have 1 station near me that is 30min away. my car is my DD and i run the car on e85 247. i fill the car up, and bring 4 5g jugs with me.

sometimes you have to make sacrifices in order to reap the benefits of something, and having to drive 20miles is something minute.

I've had both anger n happyness with my aquamist Meth kit. First wen I was making 335hp I installed it at Ivey then I made 400hp 390tq. Went to a bigger turbo then I spun a bearing. I blamed it on
the Meth cause it watered out my oil. My oil was like water no viscosity and it stunk of Meth I could of spit/pissed in that oil n no one could have told the difference. U have to keep your oil changed regularly wen running Meth especially if u get on it a lot.

It's funny how everyone blames meth but gives no details on how it messed up their motor.. yeah we se the aftermath of how the pistons look in the shop... But no one actually shares the details of what lead to the blown motor.... How the owner drove... dragged/auto x/ spirited street driving/ or just straight beat on the car... how about the kits were used...(how many of these motors used aquamist)... what precautions were taken to ensure a long life of meth....

Every knows if not handle right meth can be dangerous.. But how many people acutually took the right steps

True , have many friends run meth with no problems what so ever , I think in the long run any heavily modified car would tend to suffer from mods. you shouldnt balme it all on meth there could be more factors causing the problem ...dont blame it all on meth like he said.
