Post Methanol/Water Injection Systems

So i was looking through one of my magazines, and i saw an add for this company called "Coolingmist". They specialize in the Methanol/Water Injection kits. I was wondering if maybe you guys could maybe give me a little feedback about this product, becuase i have never seen one of these before. So i was wondering if anyone had one in there car, and if is even everything cut out to what is supposed to be. It says that we can get an extra 90HP!! I left the link to the kit, so some information about this product would be greatly appreciated!!

cooling mist makes a great product. their set-up installs in your trunk. And fits almost a gallon of water/alchohol.
There are alot of people that use these kits succesfully. some people also blow up their motors with this kit (or any water/meth kit).

The same can be said about nitrous.

If you use the system correctly, and regularly check the system for leaks and proper functionality. You can see a decent amount of power gain from meth/water injection.


Basically you are injecting fluid into your intake. You can inject 100% water, or 100% methanol, or recently some people are using E85 Ethanol...the best of both worlds is 50% water-70%water and 30%-50% alchy.

Water- cools intake charge temps. Allows for more boost. Cushions against pre-detonation. You can run 100% water and see a gain in performance, if you are running high amounts of boost.

Alchohol/Methanol - Boosts octane ratings to 100+ octane, allowing for more timing advance. Adds HP due to advanced timing, and octane boost. Higher octane means you can safely produce over 21psi (2 BAR) of boost without excessive knock.

Most people run 50-50 mix or 70-30alch. mix.

www.tagracecraft.com makes a good kit with a S/C spacer built in.
www.alchohol-injection.com makes a kit.
www.snowperformance.com also, makes a kit.


p.s. dont take my word for it...get more testimonials. Alot of the '03-04 Mustang Cobra owners use this on their cars with success. A few blow up their engines...but thats what happens when you tune and tinker with cars...they break.
