I run water meth injection and its injected about 10-15cm before throttle body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also looking at it (just need to save up $$$$$ to get snow performance kit) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could potentially go higher but Ive only tested up to the 375ml jet. If you are going fit the kit run it for the whole run. It may not show up on the dyno but should definately help with et and give you a greater safety margin on the tune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I reckon if you can get intake temps almost dead on everytime your gonna run more consistant numbers and win more races 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
