[QUOTE="WDW MKR, post: 2772066, member: 8038"] Alky can make great power w/out upping the boost, and only raising timing. A lot of people prefer it over nitrous b/c it's not as hard on the motor, doesn't cost nearly as much to operate, and is more of a safety mod. You have two choices when running alky: 1) Increase the timing a fair amount to pull max power 2) Slightly increase the timing and use the alky as a cooling mod and safety net. The Teflon coating issue has been discussed many times. The general concensus is that the meth is only sprayed under boost and will completely evaporate. There are several people using this kit with good results. Some others have tried it and didn't like it, which is no different than most mods. I ran it with great success on my GN, and plan to eventually run it on the Cobra. Anyone wanting good research info on alky needs to visit the Alky Injection section of [url]www.turbobuick.com[/url] There was also a great discussion going on over at ModFords, regarding the benefits of straight meth vs. meth/water mix vs. straight water. Running straight water with our roots blower won't get you near as much as either of the other two options. I had best result with straight meth in my Buick. I'm not sure what I'll run in the Cobra. The water has some advantages, such as reduced flamability of the 50/50 mix and chemical reactions aided by the addition of water into the combustion chamber. [/QUOTE]
