How far are you from Chevron motorsport in Stafford? I am heading down on Saturday so if you could meet me somewhere I will have it :)

craigyp 30 June 2013 05:03 PM

hi mate
im having a alcatek fitted this month so can use this stuff.
my only concern is that its a everyday car for my wife and a toy fir me at wkend. so if I have a map with methonal is it still a reliable car? and how hard is it to mix into your tank? ie mix ratio and how to do it?
thanks

banny sti 30 June 2013 05:24 PM

Once you got meth you dont go back :D If anything the car is more reliable with meth in the tank as it runs cooler than just v power and doing the mix is pretty straight forward.

Say your filling a total of 25 litres, you need 5 litres of meth to get a 20% mix, or if going on a bit of run go for a total of 40 litres which needs 8 litres of meth to get a 20% mix :)

Can you run meth on a standard engine? Do you need any sory of mod to run meth?

veerinder9 30 June 2013 10:24 PM

intresting banny
so where do u buy it from and do do you store it?

banny sti 01 July 2013 07:54 AM

I normally get it from Jennychem and store it in my cellar :)

It can be run on a standard engine but would still need to be mapped for

Oh brilliant, might try it, got alcatek so could have other map done for meth + v power, if a td05 16g is running 340-50bhp how much more power would you get with meth mix?

banny sti 01 July 2013 08:41 AM

You may gain 10 of each as peak figures but it will help spool and fatten up the midrange, might want to watch your gearbox though ;)

craigyp 01 July 2013 09:15 AM

yep the meth mix would have to be in the car during mapping :thumb:

craigyp 01 July 2013 10:17 AM

so I presume that for the v power only u will have to use the meth mix and put only v power in. will rcm keep meth in stock or will I have to take mine

craigyp 01 July 2013 10:18 AM

also say im using meth mix in car and the next tank I just want v power in . when is it safe to switch the map over to v power only?? when the light comes on??

yep use the meth and stick v power in after, I dont know if they keep it in stock never used them but I would play safe and take my own :)

Pm me your post code as I will see how much of a detour you are for me to pick the stuff up when I go to hethal. Unless I can get someone to pick it up for me and bring to Hethal MLR sprint :)
