Get the meth now. You'll save the money in the end because once you install meth, you'll need to retune. What I did, was have the meth installed at the same time as the SC kit. One tune and I was set.
BTW, watch out for that Matt character, I don't think he's all there in the head....

Still doing a lot of reading, may just decide to go the CAM route (or maybe both). I'll make a decision by the weekend.

Meth = cheap insurance for your motor + more consistent ATI's! I was on the fence in my Vette and once nick @ lethal explained it to me, and the safety's I was sold. Before meth after my 3rd hard pull the car would pull timing, and after it didn't! picked up 100whp though we dialed it back to save the clutch! Lol. Still hit 700whp!! It's a no brainer and will go in my SS once it's blown!
"Once I get blown I'm spraying all over!!" LMFAO!!! |

Nothing wrong with being informed and doing research, the hard part is figuring out What internet Myths are true or false. Ted.

For those with meth, is your car a DD or a weekend car? My car is not exactly a DD but is not a high mileage car. Another question for those in the 500-600 RWHP range, are the stock tires good or will I need to look into something better. Like I said Matt will be doing some PFADT upgrades but I am concerned amount my tires sticking as I don't exactly have a light foot now, I could only imagine afterwards. |

My C6 was a dd. Drove it everywhere! As for the tires it's all how YOU drive! My stock rubber I could downshift to 3rd @ 70mph and do a burn out!! lol

Trust Matt, I had him put the Meth on when he was with ECS, im at just under 660 to the wheels. Not a DD but a do enjoy it, have had it on for about a year and 8,000 miles....Goes on with a boost setting , so if not in boost then no meth is flowing. As for tires....well, no , the tires are no good hahaha, I have Nittos 295s on the rear and still cut loose in top of second , some times 3rd if its cold out
my vote is METH!!

My car was a daily driver, but once gas prices went up I decided to get a junker to do my heavy driving. When you have the meth installed, Matt will explain to you when it kicks in and how it works. My first year with it, i went through 6 gallons of it because I didn't drive hard and was very conservative with it. Tires? That all depends on your right foot. You would be better off with a better tire.

Do it all now if you can afford it. Saves the cost of a re-tune later when you realize how much your car slows down in the summer. The biggest advantage to me is not losing performance in the hot humid Florida air. Air intake temp can run as much as 80 deg cooler = more power.
