    damn Evo gots balls.
    but then again Meth Injection.

    Like Toreto said, "Only Pussys use that"

    where is it written that using meth is a bad thing?? i understand the point to where u may say you dont like it because ur "old style", but fact is time and tech cange and so do we...you do what u need to do to get the max out of ur engine..and if u ask me, hell yeah, i would use it in combination with a turbo setup (if i ever get it)...point here is that, "Toretos" saying is just for a movie...and whether u like it or not it dont mean shit...i loved the movie dont get me wrong, already seen it 3 times at the movies...but again, its just a movie...whether its nitrous oxide, water/meth injection, or any other setup your using its just a means to get the best out of ur engine

    reason why i say it is plain and simple.. i didnt just say it because of the movie.. lol
    its a way of cheating. thats why they Ban it in most if not all Drag spots.

    put it this way.. same as steroids for humans.. its cheating, thats why they banned it from professional sports.

    i get what u mean about humans and steroids...but let me ask u something, do u use a radar/scanner?? if so, what diff does it make to use meth injection?? ur already breaking the law, hell u might as well add one more thing...and fyi, its only illegal because the "Law" says it is, and we all know that the "Law" is full of shit on lots of things...and if they didnt say it was illegal a lot more ppl would have it in their cars, wouldnt they??

    here, i found this lil "background", if u may, on water/meth injection...
    "Why Water/Methanol Injection?

    The Boost Cooler® is Snow Performance's latest generation water/methanol injection system. The primary function of water/methanol injection is to provide “chemical intercoolingâ€Â.

    In gasoline engines, as with any intercooler, this suppresses detonation so more power producing boost and timing can be utilized. Water, with its high latent heat of vaporization cools the intake charge and combustion. Methanol cools the charge and combustion but also acts like an extremely high octane fuel (some researchers claim as high as 120 octane) as well as adding more oxygen to combustion.

    In diesels, the effect is three fold: 1. The intercooling effect provides for more available air and all the benefits of a higher positive pressure ratio (more power giving fuel can be utilized safely without high combustion temperatures). 2. The combustion of water provides for more power on the power stroke. 3. Methanol acts as an additional fuel for more power.

    A brief history:
    Water injection was evaluated scientifically in the 1930's by H. Ricardo who demonstrated that one can basically double the power output of an engine using water/methanol. The first widespread use was during WWII on supercharged and turbocharged aircraft. In 1942, the German Luftwaffe increased the horsepower of the Focke-Wulf 190D-9 fighter aircraft from 1776HP to 2240HP using 50/50% water/methanol injection. The allies soon followed by fitting the P51 Mustang and other high performance aircraft with water/methanol injection. Following the war, the turboprop aircraft industry used water/methanol injection and called it the “automatic power reserve system (APR)†for use in hot or high altitude take off. It surfaced again in the 60's when GM used a system on the OEM turbo Corvair. It was used effectively in Formula 1 before being banned for adding too much power.

    The latest competitive use is in World Rally Racing (WRC) where virtually all teams use it in some form and in diesel truck/tractor pulling competition. It is important to note that in the fall of 2004, the long standing world record in the quarter mile for diesels was broken twice (now 7.98 sec) by two different vehicles; both using the Boost Cooler® water/methanol injection system by Snow Performance."
