Water meth injection? Options

[bdog_v]

Hi guys I have come across a new idea. I saw this product on powerblock tv this weekend and was wondering if anyone has used this product or any thoughts. It is at this website www.snowperformance.net no I am not associated with them.. It is a water methanol injection system that cools things down to increase horsepower and you can use it to improve mileage.

-Now I know on a turbo car this would be very helpful or a high compression motor. **But has anyone thought of putting this on a stock 94 celica GT like I have to increase mileage and a little power boost.

-In order to get the maximum benefit from this product the timing must be raised. Now I don't know if simply raising the timing on the distributor would do it as I am thinking the computer would lower it back down or adjust it in a way that would limit the benefits of the water injection system.

-So on the 94 celica what stand alone type system would I need to adjust the timing so it was raised throughout the powerband to take advantage of the water meth mixture? You turbocharge guys must use something to control the timing with the boost, would something like that work with what I am thinking of????


-'Someday I may put a turbo on and this kit would only help that system make even more power so I am thinking of getting it today to boost mileage and power but If I can't find a way to *tune it then there is no point to trying so any ideas!!
Thanks,

THANKS FOR your reply! I have searched this site and have not had any luck finding a thread on piggyback systems people use on these vehicles and info about each one like what the differences are between each system in

say:
- options available,
- difficulty to use and learn,
-support for troubleshooting
-Cost

. Is there thread on here that covers these systems or does someone have experience with a variety of them who could recommend one?

I am more interested in learning about these piggyback systems if that is the correct term, than the water meth kit which I did find some turbo'ed celicas on here are using with great success for turbo cars. Not so sure it would be cost efficient on a N/A.

Thanks,

1.well.. most who do light modding/tuning go with the simple and cheap SAFC-II.. but from what i here is that it is good for lightly modifying fuel trim. but not that powerful.
2..i have seen others go with the Greddy E-manage, or the more powerful E-manage ultimate. the list of capabilities of these two is quite large, so a simple google search will give far more info than what i cold post, in a snap.
3...there is also the extremley cheap but not so user friendly (unless you are familiar with electronics and can read a schematic, or pay to have it assembled for you) MegaSqurt offerings.. with the new MS3 being the most flexible and powerful of what they offer. (personaly i am thinking of using one of there boxes, like the MS2 to do data logging only)

those are the 3 that i see the most and can think of up-off the top of my head, but there are SOOOOOO many more out there,, the key is to know WHAT you want to do with it, and what your budget will allow.. figure this out first and then look to see if you can find one that will work for you.. hell i even know of a tuner in the Philippines that has used a Honda S300 to control a modified 7a/4a and used the second V-tec fuel map to allow to switch to a second map for use with E85/race gas.
