Anyone running water/meth on their ZL1

I'm interested to hear how it helps pros and cons. I have mpg+ kit from snow on my duramax. It works fine but wanted some input.

Alky control...no water...just meth @ WOT...no complaints/regrets...helps prevent timing from being pulled under WOT according to my tuner.....its a safety thing.

Have you had it dyno tuned with and without the meth kit? I'm wondering how much it adds rwhp.

I wish we had a like button on here.

Anyway, I've gone back and forth on getting one. I think maybe I will now.

Well I think the safety factor is why I would do it. I've done the CAI and the ported throttle body. I'm going to do the long tube headers from TSP, the 160 deg thermostat and the lower pulley then tune this thing.

I just did an Alky Control Dual nozzle Kit 100% methanol and I love it! Intake temps are way more stable and picked up about 22 whp to boot!

How long does the meth last and where are you mounting the tank.

Quite sure this will be my next mod. Modern07 and I have the same build except he has meth. I made 672 and he made just over 700. After my last experience on the road track this is a must.

I'm definitely interested in the meth injection. I'll have to make something different for a tank. I have 10" sub boxes on both sides of my trunk.

I know the snow kit has the option to reuse the stock wiper wash bottle. There is an install video on YouTube I just finished watching. Seems to be pretty straightforward. However, it uses a 50/50 mix.
