Water/meth kit plus q16? HELP
Currently have a turbo ls/v setup on 2 tunes. Makes 427whp on 93 and 557whp on q16. Since q16 is $15/gallon I've been debating on adding a 5gal aem water/meth kit to the setup. Both tunes are plenty safe for the car, thinking the added aem kit will allow for a bit more boost while staying "safe"... thinkin...500whp on 93+meth. My main question/concern is will the meth act the same way with the q16? As far as iat's/afr's go? Don't know if meth serves any purpose being mixed with that fuel... if it has beneficial effects like it would with pump gas, thinkin of shooting for a safe tune pushing 600whp on the q16+meth. Any and all insight greatly appreciated.
Edit: the whole reason 4 asking is b/c I'd rather run the 93/meth setup more and save some $, and only using the q16 for track or racing in Mexico w/$ involved. But don't wanna spend $500 for the kit plus $ for retune if it's essentially not really worth it

I wish I could jump on the bandwagon. E85 is 100 miles away from me and shipping by the drum brings the price pretty close to C16.

You will need a retune. You will want to properly setup the kit & fail safes etc.
FYI you can make well over 600whp on q16 without meth & you can make close to 500 whp on a properly setup & tuned turbo bseries on 93 octane.

Ok I figured as much. My main question though was asking about adding meth to the Q16

Ok, I'll leave the setup alone for now then... keep buying the q16 when I want the extra power.thanks
