Where is everyone placing the nozzle. Ive been hearing so much as to what is the best place. I was just going to place mine 8 inches or so from the incoming air to the engine after the intercooler but I hear that its also good to put it in before the turbocharger
Anyones thought?

you mean on your intake pipe? no dont do that, it will be least effective and might damage your turbo.. Most put it few inches before the throttle body but if you wanna experiment always do it after the turbo

not the intake pipe its self but the charge pipe after the intercooler going into the engine. Thats the right place to mount it?

And also if anyone know, I have the aem kit and everyone says to mount the pump under the battery plate. I have it off and I have no idea where these two holes are that the pump fits perfectly in. Any help would be great

yes, but you may wanna move it closer to the throttle body though.. If you put it a lil farther away the water will be more evaporated into the charge but regardless you will still have some cooler charge

Alright thanks, I thought that was right just want to make sure before I do anything.
How are people mounting the nozzle? Are they welding a bung onto the pipe or is there a way to just tap it in

I currently have a supercharger on my 07 TC with a 9.5lb NST pulley, intake, header, exhaust, and the TRD tune. This is my DD. Is watermeth going to be beneficial to my setup? Any others out there with S/C running watermeth?

most likely not much until you get something to tune with it.. but if you do suffer some heatsoak or some high egts on your setup you can benefit from this

You don't really need it at 9.5 maybe when you get a smaller pulley. I had exact dame set up as you when I was s/c but I had a 12psi pulley and I had meth. Made 270whp and it wa only going to 10.5psi. Bit my inlet temps were at 70 something. That's cause my s/c wasn't generating that much heat. That's why it was that low. To me or your set up it's not worth it unless you get like a 14psi pulley.
