Anyone have problems with Mr. Freeze kit?

Well...if I ever get my car back I'll be running windshield washer fluid initially, then I might go to a 49% meth/51% water mix from snow performance

So are you going to tune for the windsheild washer fluid? It just seems to me if it's possible to use windshield fluid you could use that reservior for a cleaner install also you could just top it off at any gas station when you fill up. Please let us (ok me) know how it works for you.

Ok so where did you mount it? I'm debating doing a vortech (9-12psi) a menathol injection, with a shot of n2o (you know just in case). Would the menathol injection be worth while at that low a boost pressure? Also has anyone used just windsheild washer fluid? I heard you can.

I am using windshield washer fluid.. As long as it's guaranteed to 20 below zeero, it has methanol in it. I mounted the reservoir on the bottom mount bolt to the supercharger. You actually can't see any of the kit from above the car, yet, you can easily access it to fill. Kind of sneaky, but oh well..

I've had MR Freeze for 6 to 8 months. The only thing I did to alter it was to put a hose clamp on every single line. The only problem I have had with my car is when a vacuum line, etc. comes off and the car goes lean under boost. I have 15 pounds at 5300RPM. I pegged the mass air at 480rwhp. The tuner said if not for that he could have gotten much more. It's okay power for now on Cali gas 91 octane but one day I will get a MAF extender and cams and push it way over 500RWHP. By the way these type of kits are old school and were in use in the 60"s according to the shop I had it done at.

Everybody with mr freeze be carefull to put the fill plug back in properly. I just had a mishap in which I lost the fill plug because I accidentally locked it down wrong way. It shot out when the car was boosted, but luckily I check everything after every hard run. I never heard any detonation but it may have been disasterous if I hadn't seen that it was missing right away. I ordered two extra fill plugs and will make sure I never lock it down wrong again ! I'm going to attach the fill plug to a chain so it can't disappear if it happens to come out again (and so I can't lose it by dropping it). Hopefully it will never come out again. After talking with a guy from Anderson when ordering the new fill plug, he told me that the plug is adjustable. If you turn the lock down clockwise it is supposed to make it tighter.
