Well if the meth only comes on at a preset boost level, which I will probably set to 6 pounds, then I should only use meth on WOT runs. I don't imagine I would go through that much at a time. I haven't priced it around my area. I'm still trying to decide IF I want it. What temp difference does it make? If ambient is 90* what would IAT be without meth and then with the meth? Do you feel an increase in power when the meth kicks in?

I also have a Radix and would like some more input on other success w/ meth/water injection on a 5.3 and Radix.
Thanks,
Damon

Off the subject a tad, but a lot of people use HEET in the yellow bottle. 98% of it is pure-dee methanol. 2% is "proprietary" (I'm guessing water). If I ever get my damn Snow kit working right, that's what I plan to use.

As far as damage goes I contacted magnacharger and they say it would take a lot of meth to cause damage to teflon coating to rotors, however the teflon is only for noise suppresion. after I got everything dialed right I saw .3 gain at the track due to 20 degrees wot timing 10.5 boost and 128 degree IAT on 90 degree humid day No KR. I run 99.8 % methanol which is washer solvent before dillution which we have in parts at my dealership which also helps w/ cost HA!HA! just mt 2 cents after doing research
