No more than 50% methanol. Use distilled water as well. The idea is that the Methanol aids cooling and combustion. However, if you use 100% water, i don't think you will really notice any difference.

Here's a past post on it - http://www.924board.org/viewtopic.php?t=14981
As it says there, I use windshield washer fluid (20%-40% methanol) from the regular washer reservoir, pumped out with an OE headlight washer pump.
More can be found with a "Search for all terms" on methanol water injection.
