hell more like 100% sure im gonna do it..
Going to order the Snow Kit and do the Water/Meth injection on my car
anyone else running meth?

No, your not dumb.. you just havent learned about it yet
Water injection is used to suppress detonation and to safely allow much greater amounts of boost and/or compression ratios. When implemented correctly it provides benefits very similar to racing fuel with octane rating easily exceeding 110. However, it costs pennies per gallon instead of the typical $9 or more. Furthermore, it allows the tuner to keep the boost turned up all week long instead of only at race weekends.
Water injection works in three ways. Firstly, when the fine mist is injected into the intake system (after the intercooler), the small droplets absorb heat from the intake air. Secondly, the tiny drops of water start to evaporate. It takes additional heat energy to sustain this evaporation so the intake charge is cooled further. Finally, the remaining droplets and steam reach the combustion chamber and smooth the combustion process. The super-heated steam also melts away carbon deposits and eliminates the glowing hot spots which lead to detonation.
Whether you're running huge boost with a big turbo, are pushing a stock turbo past its efficiency range, need to tame a nitrous oxide system, or are towing uphill through the desert, these systems allow for maximum power output while substantially increasing overall engine reliability.

My friend ran it on his EVO. It was SPECTACULAR!!!! and its like nitrous, only more safe and usually atomatically injected above a certain RPM and over a certain percentage of throttle.
will allow me to increase the timing too

IDK spraying water into the intake sounds kinda crazy to me.....please let us know how everything works out...
