thanks alot guys

great questions.

1) you can run window washer fluid, as long as it's a winter mix (-20  deg protection) it should be fine. you can throw a bottle of yellow heet per gallon to add more methanol.

window washer fluid is 20-30% methanol, rest is distilled water, with some coloring. i've been running that stuff for 50k miles, it's fine.

2. i have ilfr5a-11 plugs, it works fine,  i think hotter plugs are going to be better for alky

3) i would go for 7 gph nozzle and adjust the pump there.

200 dollars will get you a basic kit with a boost switch, a pump, and your choice of nozzles and tubing

for the container, you'd just have to plumb a plastic line from the trunk to the engine bay, nothing too bad
