the way we use meth/water is to spray well away from the intake so by the time its got to the intake mani all is doing is cooling charge... this way we dont need any new tune, its till the stock s/c tune but the ecu is seeing a icey cool intake charge giving up more time and more power/Tq... if out meth tank runs dry??? no probs the car just carries on as normal..... so basically for us intercooled guys its like running in 5 deg c chilly winters yet in reality the outside temp could be 30 deg C.....
meth dependant tunes are a complete ballache...... so theirs 2 ways, the cooling charge temp way... or using it as a fuel suppliment...... using it as a charge cooler is a simply bolt in job.........tuning for meth is great on a race car or a car that can switch tunes but on a single tune car.... its way to risky imo..... To use meth as a charge cooler not a fuel you need an Air to Air intercooler.....you need to spray as far from the intake manifold as possible on the outlet side of the intercooler......it also jet steams your engine internals and keep them superclean as bythe time its reached the intake is just vapour....

I finally got what you meant to use this system. actually if asked me I would run it like you guys but unfortunately I dont have that air intercooler

I'm a huge fan of these systems since having it on my built B20 Volvo 142.

anyway as what Roffle Waffle said let me run the car well then I'll think how to get that systems on
