Ok guys, the meth doesn't really help your air charge temps, for that you need to do something with the intercooler's efficiency. The meth lowers your combustion chamber temps during the process and that is what allows for more boost and timing to be used. If the kit is not tuned when installed than yes you could run into tuning issues. You really should use the 50/50 mix to get the most out of the kit. The water is a big factor in the cooling of the chamber.
