Thank you.
1. Will I need to run methanol at all??Or is some requires in the winter to stop freezing??
2. Can I or the Tuner tune the WI whilst on the road. You see, the van will not be on rollers it will all be done on the road to give the best cooling. The Motec ( or equivalent) ecu will be programed with a laptop using O2 sensors, intake temp, engine temp, fuel pressures and injector timing/duty cycles , MAF etc. I'm not sure the level of detonation sensing it will have, I dont thing the 964 has the ability to mount individual cylinder Knock sensors??? I'm not sure though.

I dont have any idea of boost control if the WI or engine sensing goes out of spec'. Its a Supercharger so I will have to talk to TPC Racing on that.

Thanks
Frank
