Water Meth Kit???

Just curious if someone could enlighten me on this subject?? Briefly glanced at an article in a mag. the other day. I was thinking it was strictly a performance mod, but thought I read it was a mileage adder. What is it all about and how much do they run??

thanks

Here is a description of the Snow Performance system designed for economy. Riffraff Diesel: Diesel Stage 3 MPG-MAX™ Boost Cooler I had looked into it before going with my larger IC to reduce EGTs.

If your thinking of water injection get the best kit you can buy...

Water Injection, Methanol Injection, Alcohol Injection Systems | Coolingmist

As far as water injection goes it has very little to do with performance and more to do with towing. With the water injection on I can not exceed 1300* egt's... Just cant do it.

Thank you guys.
I just never really bothered looking at some of these links because I was thinking it was a power adder. I need to get some gauges soon to see just where I am. I pull an enclosed about everyday, but just 14' and probably5-7k Lbs.

thanks again all

Like I said before, water injection should not be thought of as a power adding device. Its a great towing tool.
