I am thinking about adding meth but dont know too much about it.
Looking at 2 kits, Alky Control and Devils own.
Which kit do you guys reccomend? and which one is the most user friendly?
Also will meth benefit my setup with out a retune for the time bieng?
How much ET you guys think Meth can drop off?
I dont want to RELY on Meth, but want any benefits it may provide, so what im saying is if my meth would run out or mis function i wont need to worry bout burning up the engine.
Any advice / discussion welcome.
thanks.

I have recently put a snow stg1 kit on my truck. Picked it up for like $270 new shipped on ebay. Took about 2 hours to install using my washer tank vs the tank they sent. I am running it without a retune using a 25/75 mix with no change in my afrs really. I can tell you there is a noticable diff in the heat here in ga.

I run a 50/50 meth/water mix. It really knocks down the IAT's, especially in the summer. With the meth, I run 3-4 more degrees of timing, and it's a huge seat-of-the-pants difference! I run a 15gph nozzle, and spray progressively from 2-8#'s of boost, with full spray from 8#'s on.

AlkyControl hands down. Not only is Julio a great guy and a wealth of information but his kits work flawlessly and can handle straight meth without issue.
Meth will not do anything for you unless you tune for it. It will richen you up so much that you'll need to tune out some fuel or you'll bog.
My kit was setup to ramp on starting at 5lbs progressive. I could drive and never be using any.

It is difficult to run methanol injection and not rely on it to some extent. If you just want the cooling effect, you will only be using the minimum capability of the meth injection. Your power increase comes from the added octane which allows you to add timing. However, the amount of methanol you'd have to spray to add a significant amount of timing would richen the mixture up enough so much that you'd need to pull fuel out in the tune, therefore making you rely on the meth.
You just kind of have to decide how risky you want to be
I can vouch for Julio's kit though, I've been running meth every day for nearly 10,000 mile and not one hiccup.
