Default Methanol Injection

i have the greddy kit on my s2k right now. after seeing s2kart getting a good reduction in intake temps and in turn getting a pretty good hp boost im looking to do a methanol kit.

I figure if i spend $5,000 to get 80-100 hp, another $200-$300 to get another ~30-40 hp is worth it. I also think it will really help out at auto x which is whats really important to me.

With that being said i talked to s2kart. i showed me a DIY site which lists all parts and how to install etc. Problem with that is I am currently on a time crunch, at this point i would feel better about just purchasing a complete kit to make sure i can get the install done with any bugs worked out before my tuning session on may 2nd.

does anyone have any experiance with snow performance or aquamist?

Snow performance has a kit for $275.00 located Here that i was looking into.

Let me know your thoughts

wow their site is retarded. haha.

1)anyone know what aquamist kit will work best with our cars (greddy turbo'd)? 2c? HFS-1 or HFS-5?

2) the general consensus is that aquamist is higher quality and makes a better product than snow performance?

3) what about AEM's system? http://www.aempower.com/ViewCategory...CategoryID=120

Thanks in advance,
David

Make sure you run a really good failsafe...something that can be monitoring AFRS, tp, EGT and kill boost instantly....

from what im reading aquamist deffinatly has better failsafe features. however im not looking to spend 800-1000 on the kit. im planning on running a "richer" tune so that im not 100% dependant on the injection. i also plan on running intake temp gauge to monitor. at this point that seems to be an easy way to monitor.
