Just as what the title states, I'm looking for a place here in Southern California (preferably in the South LA/North OC area) that sells methanol that can be used for water/meth kits. Not unless you guys know of a place in the interwebs that would deliver this stuff.

To those running h2o/meth kits, you guys wanna share where to buy some and how much did it cost you?

Thanks in advance!

Snow Performance, Boost Juice pre-mixed water water and methanol, it's what I run with my Labonte set up. LINK BELOW.

Thanks guys!!! With this mix, how fast do you finish a four gallon bottle? Both you guys are i6s...so I'm gonna have to factor 2 extra gas hogs.

But quite honestly I also wanna try to get pure methanol and do my own percentages...hmmm, am I getting ballsy or what?!?!

You can do that, though everyone I've talked to says it's not really a great idea, the water stabilizes the methanol so that unless atomized (via high pressure and your spray nozzles) it can not ignite. Methanol burns with an invisible flame and very hot, can be dangerous. Also the water helps to lower intake temperature, lower air temp=denser air=more hp. JUST SOME THINGS TO THINK ABOUT.

try the fuel additive "heet" it has a high volume of methanol

Hit up Tony where he go to get his... it might be the same but if there are other places then it's better for those running this setup.

Well here in vegas i buy the 5 gallon jugs of VP racing M1 (100% methanol) for $36. That way you can do your own mixing. From what I hear from the HPF guys around the country, that is pretty cheap. I think it is alot cheaper if I buy a 55 gallon barrel too, but I dont use meth that much :p
Time to pick some up while you are here for the next MFEST :D
