meth injection
could someone inform me a little on methanol injection and its benefits, set backs and expense. thanks
i was looking towards to STS but thats like 4k and i could get a 150 shot, 3600 stall and a retune for half that. so what about this meth?

Not going to do a lot with nitrous other than a bit of an octane gain. The nitrous gives some air cooling on it's own which is part of the alky's benefit. Basically I put an alky kit on every forced induction pump gas build I do. It allows more boost/timing on pump gas due to heat absorption and octane boost. A blower motor increases the air temps quite a bit. Also provides additional fueling if you're maxed out on your injectors.
They are starting to use them in high compression street motors for an octane boost. In that respect there would be some benefit, but you usually see them in forced induction setups.

You really don't use a hole lot. I have mine coming on at 4 pounds of boost, but I think that I will raise it up to about 5. I put the kit on last Sept. and have only gone through about 4 Gal. I run it in my windshield washer container. Its a gallon so your not having to fill it all the time. I haven't really paid much attention but if I had to guess I would say that a gallon of meth lasts at least 5 tanks of gas, But it all depents on how much you get on it. I think that I drive my truck pretty hard. So at 2.50 a gallon for meth I think it is well worth the money and cheap insurance.

I run 100% Grippy, which I was told by Julio Dom was the best percentage for running higher boost. I'm still on my first 5 gallon container, but in fairness, the truck spent a lot of time sitting in a body shop last year, and I haven't turned on the system since I got it back. Its a pretty small nozzle (15 I think) and a little bit does the trick.
