Average meth users have seen a .5-.6 reduction in 1/4 mile times.

There's no reason you shouldn't be seeing a noticeable difference.

Even if those differences are in the form of the infamous butt dyno methodology.

You should datalog your runs and post them here. Maybe we can spot what might be the issue. BTW, your system may not be spraying enough methanol simply due to a kink in the supply line. A common issue.

I'll look into how to datalog tomorrow. I pulled out the nozzle and witnessed it spray pretty strong when I tested it.

During the datalogging, should I just be running about a 1/4 at WOT and that's it? Just once?

If you can do so safely, yes. Once should be enough especially if it feels the same to you as other runs.

I've submitted 2 datalogs and uploaded the 2 new tunes. I'm still not feeling much of a difference. I know I'm at 6500 ft of elevation, but I expected a bit more. Here is a link to a video of me doing 0-80. Is this about what you guys are getting?

looks like about a 5 sec 0-60? Elevation is a real power killer. Can you attach the CSV file here (may need to be zipped).

I think your next step is likely to be mixing in some E85 to obtain better results. That is what some other folks at high elevations are doing. Not a casual undertaking, but it can be done.

No converting if you are only blending E85 with gasoline, thus increasing the E content of the resulting fuel mix. You should do your calculations first to figure out how much E85 you need to add. This site has calculators to help with the blending:
http://www.intercepteft.com/calc.html

Expect some decrease in mpg while driving with an increased amount of E in the gasoline.

If you decide to blend E85, do not do it without logging and feedback from Torrie. Ask if you have questions/doubts.

That's good info. How much of a HP gain would you guess from that?

This is very good to know. I just installed my stage 2 this past sunday and I'm waiting for torrie to send me the tune. Already datalogged it and all. But I have a quick question. Will I have to retune it if I choose to spray at a different psi? Or once its tuned its tuned to whatever psi settings I have and cant be changed?
