Wanted to know who has done it and what are your thoughts on it?
What are the pros and cons? Iwas thinking of doing it but wanted to know more about it.

Water- Meth injection?
- Thread starter Wild Stallion
- Start date
only on boosted applications. I loved it. how do you plan to use it?
i've heard nothing but good things. just don't let the reservoir run dry.
ya you gotta get a low level indicator light or next time on the boost without meth... bad things happen
but you can make good power with it

I have heard its corrosive on the heads and intake
How about we hear from people with first hand experience. So the poor OP is not mis-informed.
In the new MMFF there is an article on Al Pappito and they show the internals of a motor that has been using Meth Injection. It more / less states the use is better for those hard core racers that will be tearing down their motors so it's effects can be maintained.
I use it and my original post states my dyno numbers
I saw a 57 hp increase w it I haven't looked at my internals since I started using it car runs fine I think IF the corrosoive statement is true I guess it would depend on how often your car sees like 4 psi of boost or more... cause that's when most people set it up to kick in. but like I said I haven't opened my engine in about a year
but I am a fan I like the extra power to the wheels

Well I have A VT Built and stroked motor and I put on a whipple running about 12#'s of boost. I am going to upgrade the throttle body to a single blade that whipple now makes for the S-197s and up the boost. Was thinking cams too but that would bring my total bill up to $4k. So I was looking for some extra cheaper power for the moment.
P.s. I want to stay away from the juice(maybe, haha)

I've been methanol injected for a year now. I've run gallons of the stuff (50% methanol 50% distilled water), never had a moments issue. I jumped from 480 RWHP to 540 RWHP with a little over $400 invested. Then I added an electric water pump and gained another 15 RWHP. In my opinion, it is worth the install!!!!
It is Corrosive in quantities greater than 50% 50/50 is safe. I had my intake off after a year just to check for pitting because of all the hype by the ill-informed. It was very clean.
Hmmm Interesting. I have been thinking of looking into this as well. I am only concerned about where to mount the huge ass conatiner that it stays in. My trunk has a sub enclosure in it i dont want to change it. We will see. Any more arguements for the pro/con of corrosion.
Water will work fine for bringing up the precieved octane and the meth will also help in the cooling of your IATs. Some guys are just running water.
Use your window washer resevoir as your tank.
