Water Methanol Injection
I see alot of F/I vehicles running Water Meth injection to lower the temps of the air intake because of the heat caused by pressureizing the air. Would a water meth kit help a vehicle that is N/A?

Waste. Useful if you are pinging on pump gas, A nitrous shot would probably be more effective.

Also, you have to realize that, on a turbo car the air is being compressed, as you know the more you compress air the hotter it gets, The problem with an NA car is when you spray water in you are taking up a large amount of space for water that could be taken up with air to make more HP. So even if you did spray cooler water in, the change in air temp would be offset by the percentage of water to air ratio going down less air less HP.
The reason its such a benefit in a FI car is, for one temps, but also detonation.

I had thought about adding to my nitrous setup...still on the fence on it.

It can increase your octane rating so you can add more timing, but if you spray too much you will need to remove fuel so you don't run too rich. You would also need to put an IAT sensor after the nozzles to see the cooler intake temps.
