I don't know why it burst. It was the line supplied with my kit.
i plan on going with a meth injection stage 2 kit this winter... hopefully it allows me to avoid race fuel, if not at least its worthwhile for lowering IAT temps and thus not worrying as much about heat soak. I will definetely be going back to Bob Kurgan to have the car tuned.
idk what kind of lines come with the kit but i plan on going ahead and upgrading them to either fragola or equivalent fuel line.

Poly or SS? The poly lines are definitely susceptible to heat damage from even just radiant header heat. I melted one of mine and caught it before using the system. I eventually plan to swap to stainless. Did a line fail or separate from a fitting?
Blew a hole in it about 6" from the nozzle. It would be poly. I will be upgrading to the SS line for sure. I gaot the kit so I don't have to buy race fuel. Right now I feel like I should have just kept using the race fuel. I just wish the tuner had installed a new IAT after the nozzle. They had just installed a cage, return fuel setup, custom cams and new valve springs. 6 months to get all that stuff installed and 1 weekend at the track for it to screw up.
ok well this might sound really really dumb but what is the meth injection. i know that u spray it into you intake to drastically lower temps which helps make higher boost. i know all that but what is it? what goes in the tank and how fast does it burn? is it anything like nitrous where you have to keep filling it? and is it on all the time or just at the flip of a switch? it seems that it would be on all the time but i just want to make sure. im jw cause i hear that its a very good idea to throw onto my setup
thank you much
Where do you get the stainless steel lines for the snow performance kit? I didn't see anything on their site.
Also, those with 03 Cobras running a JLT high boost intake... where are you mounting your nozzles?

So any evidence for or against the rust issue?
I have use methanol before and my engine blew up (not because of it but the tuner was sucks he added too much timing). When they tear the engine apart, they said it looked in good shape no carbon deposit or etcs except for the piston rings that failed.
no offense but it sounds like the tuner wasnt %100 confident with working on/tuning ur car with what u were workin with..if he wasnt sure about something then he shouldent put his shops name with it...sorry it happened and hope the SS lines work out for u!
I found out today that the line that blew was not the line from the kit.
I don't understand why they used the hose in this link on my car.

They installed it in the trunk. My kit came with 10' of hose and they used that line in the link to make up the difference. It cost me my engine.

I just had the AIS Stage 2 with boost controller installed on my 96 we will see the difference when it gets tuned.
Can't see the pics without registering.
Who is THEY?
Sorry about that. This is the info on the hose they used.

I can tell you from experience. IT'S EASY TO DRAIN A BOTTLE!!! I've gone through a 1/2 bottle, filled up at the track and been down to the bottom by the end of a track rental day.
