    You don't really tune it.

    All you need is the correct nozzle size, and proper pump.

    And it can save your engine.

    If someone says they 'tune' for meth injection, basically they play with timing and boost. Youll have a higher octane fuel, and the IAT will be quite a bit cooler, so in theory, you can make more power when it is optimized for the meth injection. I personally would NEVER 'max' the injection system though.

    You "tune" your car for a water/ methanol system the same exact way you "tune" your car when you add an intercooler. :nanan?re

    This of course is for a BASIC water/meth. install. All you doing is adding a system that reduces intake temperatures.

    You CAN set up a water/meth. system to work alongside or within a tune for those trying to milk every last HP from their engine.

    For the most part, the addition of a water/methanol system, as discussed in this thread- is to reduce intake temps at a FIXED rate.
    Everything is Meaningless.
