In gasoline engines, as with any intercooler, this suppresses detonation so more power producing boost and timing can be utilized. Water, with its high latent heat of vaporization cools the intake charge and combustion. Methanol cools the charge and combustion but also acts like an extremely high octane fuel (some researchers claim as high as 120 octane) as well as adding more oxygen to combustion.

i run this kit on my car and have it set to spray @ 7.5psi. After i make a pass my intake manifold and supercharger are cool to the touch, when tuned properly expect a really really good hp gain.

same, 9psi, u will need to order the 100ml per minute nozzle which does not come in the kit, the smallest in the kit is 175ml per minute which is way to large for our motor even with the pump reg cranked all the way down.

I was thinking about running this setup on my xB. The only thing that I kept worrying about was running TOO much of a meth spray and washing the oil off the cylinders and such. A few people have told me that the spray is so fine, that it atomizes and evaporates before it even gets that far....
Blown_xa, how long have you been running your kit?
