If you don't go the standard mixture, most of the branded companies are around 50/50 http://www.snowperformance.net/product.php?pk=3

Though I'm finding out it's much cheaper to make the mix yourself......

Yea the pre-brewed 50/50 stuff is crazy expensive, and then you have crazy high shipping on top of that because it's hazmat.
I bought 10 gallons of pure methanol for $50 at Lanier's Speed Shop at 106 Pueblo Ave near downtown Colorado Springs. Since you're at Carson it's not too far from you. You have to bring your own containers. I bought 3 5-gallon gas jugs from Wal-Mart. Had them fill 2 of them with meth and was going to use the 3rd for mixing but traded in the car before I installed the meth kit. 10 gallons, which comes out to 20 gallons of 50/50 would last a very long time.
If you decide to go this route I'd sell you all of it, the meth and the 3 jugs (about $7-8 a piece I think) plus several gallons of distilled water for $50. Would save you about $25 over buying it all yourself and would last you a long time. Plus then you know exactly what you're putting into your car and don't have to worry about potential contaminants in windshield washer fluid.

Once my car is up and running, we'll have to see if we can meet up. I'd gladly take all that off your hands!

Meth is a good idea on an otherwise 100% stock speed. And a higher percentage of meth will not stress the K04. Higher boost stresses the K04 and adding meth doesn't mean you are necessarily running higher boost.

How does meth "stress" a turbo? In fact, water/meth injection improves turbo efficiency, and actually moves the compressor map to the right when injected pre-turbo.
Lol way more responses than I was expecting I just want to cool the air charge so I'm adding a ic and meth kit to my car I'll prolly go 70/30 I herd standard window washer fluid does the trick i'm running the accessport but I'm not goin to do water meth kit if I have to tune the car no way I'm spending 400 plus to tune that crappy ko4. Basically I want the most "umph" I can get out of the car without touching the turbo I'm saving that for after afganistan. I have everything else you can do to the speed bolt on wise except an ic upgrade and water meth
