Default Methanol Injection - Better Control

I've been running methanol injection for couple years now. It's always bothered me that without multiple tunes. One for meth on without. That you can't tune it so that it won't go pig rich on part throttle/less airflow runs.

Got me thinking about a better way. I googled single fuel injector drive... damn if someone isn't working on exactly what I was thinking about. Anyway a good read. Don't know if I will ever try it.

lol...My ADD kicked in, I was following the arguements and name calling (in the nice engineering way those engineers do).

I need to think about this a little more. Not sure why we can't come up with a variable voltage pump on a small jet (low airflow). Then a larger jet that works on a boost reference valve of some sort (high airflow) That was just a knee jerk thought though.

I don't see doing it without fuel pressure sitting there on tap and then metereing it. Still boils down to better control its delivery.
