Meth weird power behavior (renamed from meth failure)

That's crazy yours is failing I've ran 100% meth before with no issues ran it for over a year now. They do state that it's possible to run 100 % meth but they highly don't recommend it I wish alky was cheaper but you gotta pay to play right! Hope all goes well man!

turns out is is a issue with fueling/tune and the plastic lines.  I was not getting proper fuel enrichment at specific conditions.  we have tuned past that.  now i am getting some power variations but i am pretty convinced its the shitty plastic lines from SNOW.

sigh... I will need to replace the lines with braided steel,  and replace the pump for 4an connectors .. about 70% the kit cost.  my fault for not doing enough research and buying a noT buying A polskifacet KIT ;)
 
I have decided to turn off the meth for now.  It is too cold and I am wondering if the issue is the meth not vaporizing..  at 375ml maybe I am getting wet in the cylinder but not enough to misfire.  Weather in Oregon is moist as hell and cold so I am betting the meth is wasted a bunch as is .. bummed out.

 
It should be noted the lines and fittings from Snow are inevitable for a catastrophic event,failures waiting to happen.  Z

Yeah we are now in prime boost lovers weather for the next many months.  Challenge is traction is limited now, but makes AWD just that much more fun and a big reason why I bought the SHO!!  I was noticing Sat on the way home from the range that I was cruising on the freeway @ 77* IAT2  Even sitting idling at a the 3rd light in 1/4mile I was just reaching 100*.  I will not have the other benefits you have with Meth, but totally feel the change in performance from the cold air.
 
Air gets denser which helps for sure! Requires more fuel though for the same reasons... I suspect as usual we will start seeing posts about hesitations under WOT popping up here soon...

Meth in the winter helps offset that...
