What you need for Meth?

Looking to run Meth/or water on my car strictly to lower my IAT as safe as possible.

Currently have the JB4.

I could get a good deal on a used meth kit just looking to see what I'd need..

Beside tank, pump, lines, fuel nozzle in CP, & solenoid..

What is an FSB?
What settings to use in JB4?

From what I can remember, you don't need a FSB (fail safe box) anymore because it's built into the JB4 now.

You'll need everything you listed in addition to a line filter and power lines (which should be provided with a used kit).

Is your only mod a JB4? If so, run a very small nozzle like a CM2 for IAT suppression. I'd suggest running Boost Juice (water/Meth mix) in your tank.

No, I am fbo with bef, figured all that mattered was that I have JB4 and can use for integration.

I have a VRSF CP that has 2 meth bung, what would you recommend just the CM2?
Jeff @TopGearSolutions recommended I should get two CM5 nozzles.
I would like a setup with minimal risk as I daily my car 120+ miles a day.

Since you're FBO, dual CM5's would be a good start. When I had stock turbos, I think I use to run dual CM7's with 100% Meth. Once I got Pure's, I then swapped out one of the CM7 nozzles for a CM10.

As far as the JB4 settings, I always had mine setup to only spray Meth on map 3 but you can also have it spray on all maps or just maps 3, 6 and 7. Since you daily drive your car, you might want to select Meth to only spray on select maps so that you can drive on say map 2 and not worry about Meth flowing until you switch maps and want Meth to flow.

You need the FSB to work with the JB4 and their meth kit. Without the FSB it won't be able to communicate methanol flow.

Yea if you have a CP that has 2 bungs, TWO CM 5 nozzles is a good place to start on 50/50 mix or even more methanol.

As someone else mentioned the instructions for the methanol kit and settings are on N54 Tech.

For anyone with a JB4, the BMS Meth kit is a no brainer. It's the easiest solution to have everything work seamlessly.
