I'll chime in with Joe on this and found the same to be true on my Audi. While it's a proven power adder, it's a PITA for a daily driver, particularly if you want to take it out on the road for long trips.

I went through two pumps in 18 months. I could never let my S.O. drive it in that she would always forget to check the Meth level. Ask yourself if you are going to feel the same way about adding Meth after 50k miles?

Finally took it off the Audi and dialed back the tune. I thought about keeping it on the car and just running distilled water, but figured that would still be a pain in the wazoo.

I'm using my Gen6 as a pleasure/grand touring toy and want to keep it simple to use, hence, no Meth for me.
