Pretty much anything works. I pissed in the reservoir after a hard night of drinking and dropped a half second in the quarter :P
Seriously though you can run most washer fluids. You wanna watch out for the super soapy ones though.

I used %50 denatured alcohol and %50 distilled water. Be advised that if you are gonna be tuning with a wideband that displays A/F, actual a/f might be skewed when h2o/alky is spraying.

Made a large order last night and am already recieving orders today 
A loca guy l with a Civic chose the 10 GPH nozzle with his basic kit. I am very curious to see what sort of power he is making and how this helps him.

we should start a h2o/alky injection tuning/tips thread in fuel management forum if there isn't already.
I'm currently not at my home computer but ive got a h20/alky calculator that was a big help when tuning my setup. I also sent it to Jdavis, maybe he can post it as a link so anyone can have access to it.

It depends on the specific gravity of the fuels your using, the stoichiometric a/f of the fuel, and the total percentage of alky/water to gasoline.
Just to give you a very very generalization of what the effects are, well according to my ------sheet calculator with an arbatrary a/f target of 12:1 displayed, a higher percentage of water:alky is gonna skew actual a/fs richer than displayed, while a higher percentage of alky is gonna skew actual a/fs leaner than displayed.
Take this with a grain of salt, but just by simply running a 50/50 mix actual a/fs when compared to wideband a/fs will be leaner by .1.
(eg.) wideband displays 12.5a/f
actual will be 12.4a/f
REMEMBER this is only according to this ------ sheet calculator, you should always proceed with caution and in small increments while checking plugs and other common sense things.
I tune with an AEM wideband/lambda gauge so i just keep it in Lambda. Lambda dosn't care what kind of fuel you use.
