SMC's gone out of business. I found this though:

yeah it looks like a very simple setup, im probably going to wait and also run AEM's new gauge/monitor fail safe system not just for falisafe but i would be lead to believe i cant tune the meth kit with this also http://www.aemelectronics.com/gauges-26/water-methanol-failsafe-device-56/
I have quite a bit of meth injection experience as well. If you have any questions feel free to ask.
I'm a fan of denatured alcohol mixed with distilled water 50/50. You can get denatured alcohol at any lowes, homedepot, or walmart. You can even order 5 gal drums at local paint shops to cut the price down to $10 a gallon or so. When mixed with water you're looking at $5 a gallon. I used to go through about a gallon a month so its pretty cheap. I found the availability of denatured well worth the price increase.

i have looked into that, a local friend of mine took his evo off meth and went to e85, he gave me 4 gallons of boost juice from snow performance, i looked it up and its 40$ shipped for 4 gallons, idk if i should stick with it or go over to the denatured alcohol and mix myself

Hey Jared, I'm always curious, you say you use 1 gallon a month or so - what are your threshold and gain settings at? I seem to use really small amounts - I only ever really see spraying in higher gear, really gunning it. Never really retuned the original meth kit variables...
It's up to you man. I've heard that the tune for meth vs denatured would need to be tweaked slightly. Again I'm a fan of being able to get what I need to run my car anywhere if needed and liked the peace of mind with denatured (I say this now when I'm running E85 and have no 93 tune LOL).
I'm running e85 now. IIRC I had the meth start flowing at 4 PSI and at max flow by 10 or so. With the VF39 I'd be spraying without really driving hard.
I know David the owner of coolingmist well. I've worked with him in depth with the CMGS-FS. He knows his shit about meth injection... that being said I would not expect him or any of the manufactures to have the tuning knowledge you'd need. You'd be better off asking a tuner.
