BMS Meth Inj questions

Ive spent some months looking for methanol here in Germany and so far come up with 5 solutions:

1) 1000Tons [my basement is large but I am sure not that large]
2) 24Tons [still probably make it on some kind of list]
3) 3000L [looking grim]
4) 4hr drive to a Belgium paint store. [best option thus far]
5) http://www.alcoholinjectionsystems.c...icle_info.html

Now I know some of you will recommend calling BMS and asking what they recommend to do in my situation; and I will, I just want to get some more info here before hand - horror stories with HEET or great successes as well OR if you live closer than Belgium knowing of a good place where I can purchase pure methanol 50-200L not 3000L or sold to me in tons where I need to put a gas tank under my house.

There's a few other options you could use here in Deutschland

- Denatured Alcohol in the painting aisle at the BX/PX (It's a mixture of Ethanol and Alcohol)
- Isopropyl Alcohol (Rubbing Alcohol)
- 100% Bio-Ethanol from Ebay.de or Amazon.de (Can also be used in your gas tank to create a ethanol blend E01-E100)

You can run all of these directly out of the containers or you can mix them with distilled water to water ever percentage you want. Just make sure you measure by weight instead of volume if you want the mixture to be accurate.

Same, my IATs never go above 117 here in Houston so I'm more concerned with octane.

That's at the max, after a good amount of hard driving on a hot ass day. Usually down in the low 90's
