you need to find yourself a pump that wont fall to pieces if it gets methanol through it.
then you need to make sure it pumps 120psi. as far as i remember. dont forget your fuel is pumped at 30 psi - so its a hectic pump.
then you need to build the electronics to switch the pump on at the right time and in the right situation.
and then you need piping, connectors and nozzles that can deal with all that pressure.
good luck!
i think these systems are a steal at 3 grand new!

150 psi 12V pump. That is what you need. nothing less. Agents like nos and turbo dont sell the pump separately, as far as I know . I dont know what the situation is with aquamist kits. Other than that, the above mentioned pump is not easy. if you can get them, and the price is ok, let me know.

Then also try www. aquamist in SA

Not worth it to be a project unless you a engineer with access to some high end gadgets...
With a turbo car its better to use a progressive meth injection system, that aint a unit you just gona build yourself...
The pump is the hart of the system... If your pump fails to deliver during boost, POP your motor will go.
The nozzles, except for it having to deal with high pressure... its not allowed to drip, which most systems apparently do anyway.
Lots of other issues as well....
rather make the project: You fitting a kit than you building your own.
I have seen some rice turbo golfers, doing this, however they just used the snow performance pump, hooked it up to a 1.5 L coke bottle under the engine bay and BOB's your auntie.... Just not right.
