So a Snow Stage 2 would be a good kit to go with? Waiting on my tuner to get back with me about the whole deal. Love the LED idea, I want to know it's pumping for sure! Do you have some sort of flow meter that send the signal? Thanks guys, keep the info coming.

I run a snow kit.

The LED just means the pump is working. If you have a wideband, it will show you when its working. If someone makes some sort of AFR failsafe, that would be really cool too.

So your led just shows that the pump has power, not that it's running, that's cool. I think snow makes all the add ons for fail safe conditions.

in theory yes when the controller tells the pump to spray is when my led lights up but you can see in on the wide band too

the alky kits have a "has power" led and a "spraying" led -- at least on my progressive kit.

Man this thread really has me looking into meth now.I never really had an IAT problem but it seems there is a lot more benefit than just IAT's.

What degree of timing have most of you peaked at with meth? There has to be a point where adding timing doesn't result in anymore power.

Thanks for the settings you are using! I have mine at 4 psi and **** at 4 so I will play around with it a bit. If I bring it in too low it just drinks meth at low boost and part throttle. Think I might leave mine at 4 psi and tune my Boost VE table from there up with the meth and set the **** to 5. I will set the low boost to 11.5 on fuel only and see how that works. I use methyl hydrate and it is about $9 - $10 a gallon here. Alky control kit here as well.

I have the same kit and my red LED comes on when the system is activated and the green LED comes on when it is at full steam.

I think it also has a lead that you can use to switch your boost control on a turbo so you only go on high boost if the meth is working.

Alky control kits are MAP activated on GMs and MAF activated on Fords.

So MAP activated is the way to go for GMs? And I have heard nothing but good things about AlkyControl kits, so I think I'll give them a call.
