Wife's 2016 Mini pooper base 1.5 liter custom JB4 tune 15 pounds of boost. Yes the Mini's run in the 13 AFRs at WOT even stock on pump gas. I know it seems insane. Got my hands on a 5 gallon pail of meth and said what the hell lets try it. Checked MSDS and looked at stoich ratios for Methanol. Ethanol and Methanol are close but meth stoich ratio is a little lower. Fuel trims are fine on both Ethanol and Methanol with very little change. I know meth is more corrosive but not much more than Ethanol. People that cant get ethanol might want to consider meth as a alternative.
