I have been thinking the same thing for a while now. It's meth in my case, because of the lack of quality fuel here. What do you think we can have with 97RON + meth injection ? Which race fuel could be equalised with that setup ? Or can it be ?

Sorry for a lot q's

I use a mix. I believe 40/60 meth to water. I use window washer fluid as it is a cost effective way to do so. I was also told that 100% meth was more dangerous....flammable and not good to inhale or touch your skin.

For my setup took the car from 350whp to just over 400whp.
With a big decrease in lag, which is a problem on sti's with larger turbos.

For a 997TT, the newest Aquamist HFS6 would be best. There is a debate as to where to put the nozzles.

Some say to put them post turbo-pre intercooler, other say right before the throttle body.

My $0.02, post turbo-pre intercooler makes the most sense to me. The water/meth mix already cools the charged air so having the IC help cool the mix as well would be best. It would also help evenly distribute the mix in the intake after the IC.

I have AEM with a little blue switch in the center console cigarette compartment,AEM water bottle sucks so I used OEM wiper bottle,the pump is located in the rear left bumper and the jet is installed in the middle of the Y pipe.

It is good to use OEM wiper bottle because you get the low fluid alert in the dash,I saw a guy that used AEM bottle in the front trunk and looked terrible !
