It has it's place in the performance world but you should know all the details before committing.
Keep in mind when someone is trying to sell you something they have something to gain, so they will tell you all the positives and none of the negatives.
I prefer to educate my customers and let them make the decision knowing full well the risk.
Once they have all the details they rather not mess with it.
I am giving up a sale in the process of educating my customers.
So I have something to lose in the short term but a customer for life in the long term.
We do use it in very specific applications with fail safes in place, typically engines with no other intercooling options.
I attribute meth injection success to Casino Success, you never hear when they lose, but always hear when they win.
Been in the business 36 years I can't tell you how many calls I have received, my meth system failed and took out my motor from either self or other shop builds.
Can it work, Yes, can you win at the Casino yes, but the odds are stacked against you.
There are so many other ways to make power reliably that do not introduce as much risk.
If you are a fan, Great! go for it.
Just don't push a non gambler to go to the casino with false promises.

Thanks I appreciate that. E85 isn't practical for me so what other choice would I have if going FI in the future other than meth? The last shop who did most of the build on my old 01SS uses/has used meth for a long time and always had great success. Won't mention any names but they are a VERY popular shop. With E85 not being so widely available up here, Meth seems like the go to but maybe I'm wrong.
I think we'll be talking in the near future. I'm in CT very close to the casinos but I'm not a gambler and trust me nobody would make me do that
But I am about an hr away from your shop so maybe I can win there
Thanks again for the info
