Default Post your pump+meth setups

Looking for dyno plots and install pics of different meth setups. I had a twin nozzle aquamist setup on my sti and loved it. Looking for options on my honda as well as how others integrate them and provide failsafes.

Please Include:
system being run
nozzle size
water meth %
install location
dyno
any other useful data...

I'm using a Snow Performance progressive meth kit on mine with the largest nozzle. I have it plumbed in about 3"-4" from the throttle body.I'm using Snow Performance Boost Juice. We haven't put the car on the Dyno yet. Hoping to make between 400-450 on 93/meth. We use a mustang Dyno btw.

You can barely see the nozzle here.


Better pic.

Any reason you chose the snow performance kit over aem or aquamist?

It's just what we sell and use on 75% of the customers cars that come through the shop. Before this, I used a coolingmist kit back when I had my neon. Besides a pump seizing up (which was bought second hand) in a 4 year period, it worked well also. I don't have any experience with aquamist, but I'm sure they work well also. On the neons, we typically see 40-50whp gains with meth. I planned to run this car on e85 but it's gotten too hard to get a hold of around here so this seemed like the best option.

yeah its hard to get e85 around me so I figured I'd dive back into meth injection. I absolutely loved my aquamist setup from before, although it was kinda pricey... anyway more meth setups please

+1 and I'm curious as to nozzle placement, including (if any) pre-turbo.

I've always heard bad things about spraying meth into the turbo. On my bosses neon, we did used to spray water straight at the center of the wheel. Not sure how much it really helped though.

It didn't. Its like almost hydrolocking an engine. its trying to compress water at that point.

I'd be surprised if it didn't help a little with cooling.

Please re-read the article as well as its interpretations stated above. that is the caveat.. (The BUT... Before you get excited). The "cooling" is only an after effect because there is a higher risk of the compressor wheel compressing FLUID that's before its flashpoint and will errode the wheel.

Stop thinking one dimensionally with regards to "COOLING". It doesn't mean crap if your compressor wheel is damaged from housing contact because it tried to compress a liquid.

Nice little setup you got. Why aem though? It seems like one of the simplest systems out there

AEM meth kit running 51-water 49-meth mixture with 93 pump. Fail safe to hondata s300 for boost cut and timing. Running the largest nozzle that come with the kit.
