Where the gains achievable simply by the addition of the W/M or is it the result of some retuning, i.e. adding some timing, or A/F changes?
Thanks

It lowers intake temp, allows you to run more timing. It is a must for superchargers. With my old procharger setup I got 21whp gain and 12 wtq If you do not advance your timing it is kinda like insurance for FI No detionation or knock. pretty much with a 50/50 mix you turn 93 octane into 109 to 112 octane once sprayed

Did you run more timing and if so how by how much would be very informative?

You are basically just controlling at what RPM and Boost your meth kit will turn on. This is not a true RPM dependent spray were you increase the spray as you go up the rpm with the same boost. I'll be real interested how you were able to control the Pump to spray with just the Utec and without the Meth Controller.

The reason you want to spray close to your TB is because water don't like taking a turn so the smoother it goes in the better.

It would be a nice touch if you converted the windshield wiper fluid resevoir into your W/M tank. Who uses their windshield wiper fluid anyways??
