The car is running great it feels faster when it gets on boost with the methanol. I'm waiting to see if the rain stops so I can go the track to verify that's not a placebo effect

I just had my ptt tuned and love it, however here in Ca. octane is 91 max. I watched the videos from snow performance and the camaro ( supercharged) picked up like 88 horsepower from this kit. I am looking for like 50 more horsepower, Have you dynod your car or verified the increase. Thanks S

Hi, sorry have not dyno the car yet. If I can go to a dyno in the future I will post the graph.

When I tuned my car it picked up 80 hp and maybe 100ft. lbs tourgue, definate seat of the pants power, burns 4 tires into second gear ( sometimes, very slight but its there) What is your seat of the pants experience with the methanol, if any ? Says you can pick up 40-80 hp with this. Thanks for your input.

I see you had a tune as well, I would think this picked up at least 50, as you have essentially added octane and cooling. I may be a customer. I am going to find some 93+ octane fuel first and see if this yields any results, then go from there. Thanks S

*Any advice to other interested Panamera owners like me?
I'm considering doing the exact same install. I have the exact same car and FVD tune. I just would like to hear from you about your real world experience first before I push the go button on this project. Thanks.

I am currently trying to figure out a throttle body spacer with an NPT nozzle solution for my Cayenne Turbo. That last picture posted here is sooo close I can taste it, yet so far away cuz I'll never know how he got this plumbed in and tuned correctly. Scott at Softronic told me today he doesn't recommend WMI. Sigh. Gotta find a tuner who isn't scared of a little work.
