Under hood methanol tank

[HoldingHeavy08]

Searched through the threads and could not find any reference to anyone running a tank under hood for their setup. I don't want to loose use of my washer reservoir otherwise I would go that route. If anyone has any ideas or seen anything done I would love to hear about it. My car has a paxton on it so very little under hood room. Thanks.

Can’t you just use the washer reservoir with washer fluid and have the best of both worlds?

AI says:

Yes, you can use windshield washer fluid in a methanol injection kit, and it is a common, cost-effective alternative to professional premixed fluids like
Boost Juice.
However, there are specific requirements to ensure you don't damage your engine or the injection system:

• Choose the "Winter Blend": Only use blue washer fluid rated for -20°F or colder. These typically contain about 30–35% methanol, whereas summer blends may have little to none.
• Avoid Additives: Do not use fluids with "bug wash," rain repellent (like Rain-X), or detergents. These additives can leave deposits that clog your spray nozzles or contaminate the system.
• Check for Glycol: Never use washer fluid containing glycol, as it can ruin the injection pump and lines.
• "Spiking" for Performance:Because standard -20°F fluid is only ~30% methanol, many enthusiasts "spike" it by adding 100% methanol products like HEET Gas-Line Antifreeze (yellow bottle) to reach a more effective 50/50 mixture.
• Dye Risks: Be aware that the blue dye in standard washer fluid can occasionally crystallize over time, potentially leading to clogs if the system is not maintained.

Hellion sleeper kit without the stock intake leaves plenty of room. May not help in your case!
