Thot this was interesting.

Mixing 40% methanol w pump E85. Interesting results! - LS1TECH - Camaro and Firebird Forum Discussion

Forced Induction - Mixing 40% methanol w pump E85. Interesting results! - Stumbled across this today. 40% meth blended with E85 was worth almost 50whp, faster spool, more TQ, more timing, and only required 10% more fuel or so. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwFlaCc-Ka0

I've been doing that for a while lol

 

[Mr.Spool]

I did it by weight and volume.
And you can really get after the cylinder pressure.

 

[Mr.Spool]

Backpressure will be the enemy
Prepare to overspeed some turbos too.

 

[Mr.Spool]

Everything gets amped up
The motor rpm wings up faster,
Converter flashes earlier and goes higher.
Boost curve is much more violent.
Car is on the tire earlier and harder.

With the new computers now it's easier to pick the target afr and as long as you have enough injector pump it will get after it.
