Sorry this is off topic - but I just read your sig Jim and this would be one more reason for me to dislike Shiv. Do you still have the thread that it came from?

The car should have good TQ it is at full boost buy 2800rpm.
Lucas,

So what are you using for boost control to get it to drop to 15psi when it runs out of meth??

We just use a solanoid that runs straight WG line if we have no meth pressure. WG line is 15psi on the EVO. I could do a boost controller in there also if I wanted the non meth boost to be a bit higher.

Just was making a point of what I could do. No contorller on top just WG line for safty if the Meth were to turn off.

We will get the turbo stuff coming this week.

sorry slightly off topic here, I will be running a SMC alky kit soon and smc recommends 100% denatured alchohol which cost around $10 a gallon at hom edepot etc. So it seems methanol is a cheaper alternative around $3 a gallon from what i have heard? But how hard is methanol to get? chemical supply company?

There are gas stations that carry race gas and methanol around the city. there's one just down the street from me on 112th and foster called tesuro or something like that, but it's like 4.75 a gallon and lucas sells it for 3 dollars a gallon. depends on what part of the city your in.
