Default Got Meth?

Is anybody running meth? If so, what kit and where do you get your meth?

Thanks.

Alky Control is the best kit out there. I buy my meth from a local VP dealer in 5 gal cans to avoid shipping costs.

Snow is junk. Had it and had multiple failures. Switched to alky control and have had no issues. Make sure you run pure meth and it barely does anything for cooling IAT2s but it does add octane

Call Julio at Alky Control.

I have talked with Jeff Snow at length and many years ago his systems and AEM's were actually quite good. It seems quality has fell off over the years.

wouldn't adding water to the mixture help with lowering the iats?....I'm sure it takes away from some of the octane bump though.

​​​​​​​kind of apples to oranges, but I ran a Devil's own kit on my Turbo VW and loved to see the iats jump down below ambient when the kit turned on.... I ran a 50/50 mix with distilled water....70* iats were cool to see when it was 100*+ outside

Yes it would but water isn't compressible and you can't send it through the rotors without damaging them

You can spray a water / meth mix and as long as it’s vaporizing properly it’s not a problem. It will cool better on a PD blower.

The is no heat before the rotors. To vaporize water you would need to reach boiling point
