Default D16 On boost+ water meth

I have a Vitara/Eagle w/ stock head D16.
Rc750's
Hondata S300
Walbro 255
Garrett GT3076R 0.63 A/R Hotside

91 Octane is my only option

I am considering running water/meth this summer. Preferably something like the AEM kit that comes complete, ready for install.
I know keeping the tank FULL is hella important LOL.

I was running 14psi on a Turbonetics T3SUPER60 Turbo last summer and 12* timing making roughly 180whp, no real hard facts.

I KNOW I can make 250whp this summer on the GT30 but with meth in the equation I would like to push it to 270whp. Is this worth it? Pros and cons to running meth... Anything is greatly appreciated!!

lol actually, 13.9psi...
also think, I am running 91 octane, you guys typically run 93 or e85...
Im in canada and 91 is my best bet.

I never hit the dyno so 180whp is a wild guess.

I just want to know is a gt30 REALLY worth it? Iv'e still got some tuning left to do with the super60 for sure.. I think I can do 250whp with it but I am iffy!

his car may or may not have been tuned on his butt dyno which he's admitted may be uncalibrated. The butt dyno can only handle so many psi before everything goes to ****.
