I'm interested in running Meth on my car and haven't seen much F8X running this, I'm currently running catless downpipes with BM3 tune, DCT. I'm looking for feedback from anyone running meth pros and cons, what kit your running, mixture 100% / 50/50, dyno numbers, Meth vs E85, Meth vs pure turbos, etc etc, videos welcome. I'm looking to make 580whp to 600whp. Thanks in advance

50/50 gives me 495. Snow performance meth kit.

461,472 is BM3 stage 2 before install meth

E85 custom tune will get you in the HP range you're looking for without meth. E85 with meth will give you you another 10-15 HP per my tuner (F80PAUL).

Do a search for Alkycontrol. They build custom kits with AN fittings and lines (no plastic parts except for the tank). Prices are similar to competitors. I'm working with the owner now for a kit on my S55.

I'm running catless down pipes only with BM3 and custom E85 tune. My car is at 580WHP and it was not fully dialed in at the time. Ambient temperature was 95+ degrees while on the dyno.

That's exactly what I did because if the crummy 91 octane fuel here in So Cal and no easy E85 source.

With Paul's input, I put together a stand-alone kit using the BMS Meth kit (without the FSB and JB4)

I used the Snow Stage 2 progressive controller and minted the gauge in the "storage" area next to the steering wheel on the left side.

Running 100 percent

Also depends on how much meth you want to fed your s55. I have fill my tank about 2 month ago. Last week I check, probably only use 1/2 gal 50/50

Are you tuned for meth or just using meth as an IAT controller?

I'm Confused, shouldn't you be making more hp, the torque is crazy but hp reading seems pretty low for Your listed mods. Stage 2 without meth should be at least 520whp without meth unless I'm missing something.
