Thanks for the help and discount too!

And yep. Will be dynoing the car Feb 8th if all goes well.

I don't think I'll be using meth daily though. Probably will use it for a week, and wont bother to fill it up for another few weeks. I don't plan on going above 50/50 either.

Just traded in my N55. I said the same thing... "prob won't use very day...50/50..." Then I tried 70/30 and it was ALL OVER. I got hooked quick! Makes a HUGE difference bro! Do yourself a favor and buy a 50 gallon drum

You're going to love it! I'm refilling meth about every 5 weeks. I've been running meth since August and I can't say anything bad about it. Definitely surprises some cars out there.

I'm running probably 55/45 meth/water custom mix with m1 methanol. I've found that to be the best mixture.

Yeah, there are advantages to running water mixed in. I'll probably run close to 60/40 meth/distilled water

Have some terrible news..because my safety net, Matt@Camber-Toe is leaving NY to work at ACM in NJ, I'm seriously contemplating going back to stock until the warranty is up.

If God forbid something went wrong with the car, I would have to trek to NJ all the time which I'm not willing to do. I don't trust anyone else with my car other than Matt and MAC..

If I do decide to go back to stock, I would leave the exhaust in but take the tune and DP out. I would keep everything and reinstall the tune, DP, and meth at 45K miles or so.

Im in quite the predicament with what im going to do....

if your worried about warranty i'd keep everything in (besides tune) when going in for work, but meth is a no no for service work.

This is my plan... I'm keeping on what I have so far. This week I'm going to meet with a VERY chill SA who will do my oil change 2K miles early and will look through my spark plugs, injectors, all that good stuff which are known to cause problems on 335i's. If everything checks out, I'll be installing the meth kit at ACM.
