Colour additive for water/meth mix?

[JoeN]

Hi All,

Excellent website. I've been browsing through it for many months now and have learnt a lot. Some background...I have a very basic shurfo based WI system which I pieced together myself. It doesn't inject proportionately to boost, and I would like to upgrade to an aquamist system at some stage. I mix water/methylated spirt at 50/50 ratio, and inject pre-supercharger (M2 - not sure what size this is in mm) and pre-throttlebody (M3). My car is a 4L inline 6 cylinder with a centrifugal supercharger (powerdyne) and no intercooler. Power output is fairly tame compared to many at around 250+rwhp.

My question is in regards to adding a dye to the water/meth mix so that the water's function within clear tubing can be more easily observed. Is there any reason why I couldn't add some blue food dye, for example, to the water tank? Could this effect the performance of any components?

Thanks for the help,
