Meth (AlkyControl) Kit installed. My take on it

Ok so over a year ago I acquired a used Alky Control kit. It was missing a few pieces and was in kind of rough shape but never the less it sat and collected dust. Well I finally had enough of saying I was going to install it and got in touch with Julio at AlkyControl who was a great help at seeing what I already had and what he advised on what was required to complete the kit along with my questions on wiring it up. Next I contacted Anthony at Livernois Motorsports about a update file for the Methanol tune. After a few emails and a phone conversation my tuner was updated. Now on to the install. Thanks to bpd1151 for his write up on here on how to install the kit. It was a great reference guide for the install. After about 17hrs the car was torn apart and back together. Took the car out for a test run and all I can say is WOW I can not believe I waited so long to do this Modification. The performance increase was impressive and also help cleaning the carbon on the back of the intake valves lol. Again a big thanks to Julio, Anthony, and Mike (bpd1151) for all you have done. Next I am thinking of small dry Nitrous shot at the intercooler inlet. Just need to figure out the fueling requirements can be done for this.

Glad to have been of help.

Even happier knowing you're experiencing a whole 'nother level of performance previously unrealized.

2016 will be fun for you I anticipate.

Congrats on adding more GO to the GO pedal :)  Remember to keep an eye on the meth level, don't let it run dry.  If you start experiencing issues, check the line for kinking, or possibly seal deterioration in the pump.  Life expectancy for the pump is usually around 3 years before a rebuild is needed, I believe.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Thanks, I am using the washer tank for my Meth . And the low washer fluid sensor works  properly. I am going to get another pump to have on hand so when that happens it will be a quick and easy fix. I am thinking of putting a small dry nitrous shot at the intercooler inlet with a progressive controller. Just need to figure out if the fueling requirements for it.
