This is the controller I am using I plan on setting min. at 3 psi and max at 10 psi my pump is a snowperformance 150 psi I don,t have any other specs on it right now. thanks.
Vari-Cool has many configuration options. The MIN **** is the PSI you want the system to START injecting
(OR EGT depending on model). The MAX **** is the PSI you want the system to be on full flow (again, or EGT).
Depending on you version you may have our 1-30 PSI or our 4-120 PSI, or EGT option. The TUNE **** is the
pump ramp rate. Each time you lower the tune button you will reduce the overall curve by 7.5%. For example, if
you have the MIN set at 10 and MAX at 15 and Tune at 10, when you hit 15 psi you will be at 100% dutycycle. If
you move the tune to 9 you will be at 92.5, position 8 is 85, etc. This is very useful when you need to change the
flow rate due to power increase, change of tune, change of season, etc.

Very best advice I can give... ONLY go to a tuner that has serious experience with Methanol injection... They'll know what to do... If they don't, you'll just create a headache for yourself... Taylor at Dallas Performance, Doug at ECS, and Julio owner of Alky control, are the top 3 in the business of tuning for Methanol on our platform imho... please take this advice and use someone very familiar with methanol tuning on our platform, there are tons of inside "tricks of the trade" that a good tuner must have to tune the car properly, you'll be VERY happy once you have it dialed in

I wish I could help with your set up, but I am not familiar with that brand of alky injection. For our set up, a dual nozzle on a stock engine would be a little much.
If you have any questions, I'll do my best to help! Good luck, I would expect 600rwhp minimum.
