Its smart no matter what, It would allow you to run some more boost as long as you have the headroom in your fuel system.

What kind of numbers are you putting down? More details on the setup?

It's not a bad idea, but your goal of a little more power could probably be acheived much easier than a methanol system.

I got the car street tuned with the greddy kit on my stock b16 and i just wanted to know if it would be safe to run a methanol kit and up the boost by 2 pounds because i'm running 8psi right now on a P06 chipped with crome
thanx guys

Here is a good forum if you want to do a little research on water/methanol injection.
