wouldn't this need to be paired with an increase in boost for gains? what are you doing for that? water/methanol systems are for knock control..

I had an independent shop install my AEM Performance meth kit. It was a single 1000cc nozzle inject into throttle body. I'm still working with custom tuner to get things dial in but so far I notice a significant difference with it.

Would still like to see what you can run at a Strip with your amazing build. No doubt the numbers should be GOAT.

Thanks, if it didn't rain yesterday, I would have gotten a run in.
