Water Meth vs 100% Meth?
What's up y'all, just curious on everyone's thoughts towards this topic. Which is better and why? Injecting 100% meth or water meth on a TT setup (forged 416ci)

I never went more than 49% meth as it becomes flammable in the tank & mani. A leak could become a disaster. I think the mix does a better job with temps anyway.

100% meth all the time. No water mixed. Controls knock much better from experience.

E85 all day long.. no concerns about methanol pump failing and detonation taking place and there goes the engine. Unless the methanol kit has some good failsafes I would not get near it

Some of us aren't big city libs with corn available on every corner. If your tuner is halfway decent, 100% is where its at. Its all in the tune and a safety valve if for some reason the meth is not there. OP, I see you're an Alky setup. Julio says to run 100%! Dont look back ONe of my pre-start checklist steps is to push the Alky test button and wait for the AFRs and IATs to plummet. That way I know the meth is right there and less than a second away from the intake when needed.

tuned with efi live, tune pulls timing immediately once certain meth flow isnt present. Theres a fail safe on the pump too. I would go e85 and just have a 93 tune if i had enough injector, 3 pumps and good e85 available |

Man, the AGP TT's are absolutely incredible, the kit is put together really good, welds are perfect, turbos kick on really fast, very dependable, ran it the other night on 902 hp and did wonderfully.I would reccommend this kit to anyone. I've been in every setup for a camaro, tt by far trumps them all.
