Ziggy(Cory) is running meth/water on his truck. He should be on sometime before work to tell about it.

I am convinced it helps, but i am not doing it ....yet.

i think water alone is what corey is running

Water: Yes 100%

Meth: Use at own risk. Propensity to add extra CCVs.

Nitrous in controlled quantities added at the proper time is a safer option than meth.

Although Cory will tell you the key to using meth more safely (it's never really 100% safe) is to be able to supply enough volume at a high enough pressure.

I am running water injection. There is no need to buy a fancy kit. Here's a parts list:

1 - ??? gallon Tank (mine is 1.5 gallon, I refill it about every 400 miles)
250 psi shurflo water pump
6.2 GPH nozzle (this is what I have)
12.2 GPH nozzle for engines with more HP (they are 1/8" NPT)
Tee (if you are using 2 nozzles)
1/8" NPT X 1/4" hose barbs
Hose barbs that will fit the pump you buy
Metal check valve 1/4" NPT F ports
20 feet of 1/4" OD (.180" ID) poly hose
a little 1/4" ID poly hose to connect .180" and the 1/4 hose barb
Boost switch (0-25 psi is what I have)
Wiring
Fuse
Switches and LEDs

About $100

kirkharrod 08-26-2010 12:54 PM

Actually, I think it was about $150.

Here's the install I did with a kit. I put together a friend's system buying the parts separately and saved about $100.
