I think of it this way... If your motor is already working hard trying to build 9psi (high boost) then you're just going to choke it down to 7.5psi then that's a lot of lost and wasted energy. The parasitic drag on the SC itself is bad enough. It's made worse by restricting the flow it tried hard to build up in the first place. 2 steps forward, 1 step back is how I think of it. There are more efficient ways to cool IAT.
My car is not tuned for meth or any mix of it. If it runs out liquid cooling or if the pump fails etc then IATs goes hot and the ECU compensates - no big deal. I can run distilled water if I wanted to which it's about $1 a gallon at my local grocery store. Running the boost juice is just added insurance. It's like running 93 octane when you're car is only tuned for 87. Running 100% water actually cools incrementally better than a 50/50 mix.Agreed RYU, but how much per year do you spend on boost juice? What happens when you run low? Or if you forget to prepare for a track event? I think both have advantages and disadvantages definitely. Meth is a great alternative on the cheap to keep cooling in check, or to stay awake for a week and steal things;-). But overall, what is the cost you spend for it? Just asking, not being arrogant. Hijaked thread alert.
