Those of you who have installed meth and are using the windshield washer reservoir, how much use to do you get out of a tank? If possible, please give examples of normal daily driving as well as having fun with some highway pulls (in Mexico of course ). Thanks!

I use my WW reservoir and I have never let it get low enough to turn the low fluid light on.

If I drive around normally and not hot rodding it I don't use any.

If I play around it sucks it down pretty quick. My guess would be 1 gallon per tank of gas if you play around %30 and drive normally the other %70 of the time.

It also depends on your tune, my meth doesnt kick on until 10lb boost. And boy do you feel it.... Like kicking in afterburners in the higher RPM's.

Mine kicks in after 3 lbs of boost and it changes everything from power to exhaust sound. Use about 24 Oz a week.
