Methanol install help
Hey guys, I’m installing a Snow meth kit & 68mm turbos in my shop and was wondering how everyone is running the line from front to rear. I’m not seeing any grommets in the frunk so far. If anyone has installed methanol and has any tips or pics that would be great! Thanks!

In the frunk, under the cloth liner the firewall has some holes you can put the line through.
That line will pop out towards the front firewall near the battery. Then you can snake it behind and under the wheel well covering.
You will have to remove the full rear under panel of the car and the one long driver side one. You can snake the line and wiring all under that.
Zip tie it to the existing fuel lines etc, then follow that all the way up behind the rear axle to the top of the rear most part of the engine.
It will help you have a second person up top to pull the line while you're at the bottom poking it through and throughout the whole install lol.
Sorry I don't have any pictures of anything I described above this was the relatively quick and clean/reversible method. I've installed a few methanol kits and it's the same between the .1 and .2.
You can post your pictures if you want me to verify anything for you

Thanks for the help guys! I ended up using the grommet behind the tire inflator (had to open it up slightly) and snaking it thru the passenger fender under the liner. Zip tied to the AC line and then over the axle into the engine bay.
Next obstacle is installing the gauge in the chrono pod. Any tips where to tap into the vacuum/boost pressure line?

Yeah, I have a kit sitting waiting for me to make time. I'd love a little bit of a tutorial, including for the gauge, please. I think I'd rather install that in the "Smoking package" tray.

Here's a little video I made that gives a basic routing idea for the lines:
If you guys need any parts for your methanol install you can always get some from us, we have pumps, lines, tanks, solenoids, nozzles, etc.
