One thing I didn't mention. This is basically a "Chemical Inter-cooler". Does the same job as a regular inter-cooler. Drastically cools the in coming air from the supercharger.

In my opinion its better because being chemical its gonna make the same power year around.

Careful though, Bad things can happen if you run out of Meth/water.

They make new pistons every day, so why worry?

I am one dead set against methanol. I've seen the damage done to a motor when the pumps fail or the tanks are empty.. I say tune it right without it and rock and roll. The timing can be turned back as IAT's increase so there is no worry for detonation. It's a bandaid more than anything in my opinion.

i was thinking the same thing....did some reading and people seem to like it.....but id be worried about the same thing....if its safe enough to run a little less boost without the kit then i might do that and intercool down the line...still thinking though...!...cheap and apparently it works....!

If you need methonal on a stock block supercharged combo you screwed up somewhere.
You can easily exceed 500rwhp without it, so there is no point.

Don't knock it until you've tried it.

No pump to fail on a Mr. Freeze. You're right, It is important to be aware of the fluid level. I am always aware of it.

I like my settup. That's all that matters.
