Default methanol injection

ok so we have a whole mess of methanol injection kits here at the shop which we have only used in subarus so far. It has shown us huge gains and is very safe, runs more boost and prevents detonation. I have only seen good things come of this , the kits we carry are universal and I think im gonna run one on my boosted prelude. has anyone done this yet, if so how effective was it on lower boost? thanks

Prolly no help, but I just ordered the Devil's Own kit for my 5th gen, hoping it will help get some good numbers.

Default Not really a honda, but meth results non the less....

Here's the difference between "no meth" baseline stage 2 before tuning and 100% meth on my STI:


Impressive isn't it???
Okay, after tuning my downpipe only (with COBB engine management) my baseline was a lot better, then we added meth- so here's the difference of a well tuned STI without meth and with Meth:


I think Meth is absolutely amazing! I really want someone to try it on a honda. I wonder if you can use the nitrous control with Hondata to tune it????
I wish MASE (if he has experience), or anyone with real world Meth tuning experience would share what is required. On my suby, it was:
1. Install ALKYCONTROL Meth kit
2. Fill meth tank
3. Get tuned
Then you drive away with almost 90ft/lbs of torque gain at the wheels on a suby...

You probably won't see much gains with just h20/alky alone. You got to take advantage of h20s great thermal management abilities to see appreciatable gains.

find out which a/f ratio the most torque is made on gas engines, safely tune as close to that as possible, then set ignition accordingly.

where do most gasoline engines make the most torque? i keep reading that its 13:1 range.
