Default Winshield Wiper fluid for performance?

My boy and I were talkin' one day and he was saying that, meth. was in windshield wiper fluid. So if it could work, i guess we could just run a line on from our wipers to our intercooler, maybe with one of the bended metal tubes with holes. The only thing i see a problem with(If it'll work) is that every time you try to spray it IC you windows would be getting cooled off too, in a sense.

Im not sure if I would call it the perfect mix...
I'd do a 50/50 if I were you, find a VP racing fuel dealer near you.. its actually not very expensive for meth at all.

Never use washer fluid in any sort of application becides cleaning your windows. That stuff on a tmic is supposedly flamable because of the alcohol. Subaru made a big deal about that with the STI having a seperate water tank in the rear. If you see those crudy blue booger trails around the washer bottle or nozzles it will show you why you would never run that as an injected meth subsitute also.

they are all diffrent mixs, depends were u are located and what the price is, the cheap 99cent stuff is just di water and blue dye the beter winter stuff has alcahol but everything depends on how the manufacture makes it my company even makes a propolyne glychol formula for winter for one costumer in all my company has manufactured about ten diffrent formulas in the past 6 years i have been there and i wouldnt want to use any of them for anything but windshield fluid.

Turbo windshield washer fluid is the shit. Yes the name is called "turbo" and its good down to -50 or something like that. Its a great substitute for racing meth which now cost 3 times as much as it did last year.

OP, you don't want to use your washer pump. One it will not deliver enough pressure and 2, it will puddle up in the piping because you are not using a "nossle" to "spray" the fluid. WI kits cost oddles of money because they have the parts necessary to make the WI kits work like they are designed to.

Ghetto modding FTL.

If you are going to go with WI, make sure you have failsafes setup. Running out of water in the middle of a WOT run = KABLOOIE!! Also, low quality components just won't work well.

Now, for an IC sprayer, you don't want to use any meth at all, JUST water. The windshield washer pump is fine for this kind of thing, but IC spraying probably won't give you much of a benefit. Our ICs actually work pretty well.
