methanol injection helps cool off the intake temps for cars, esp ones with forced induction that get the air hot, like the Comptech S/C. As well it adds octane to help prevent pinging. Only experienced folks should toy around with it since too much methanol and it's basically hydrolocking you motor...

You should do a real catback since eliminating the mid muffler really isn't going to free up any hp. I recommend:

Catback Exhaust - XLR8, ATLP, Greddy, Comptech
J-pipe (we just released ours - XLR8)
P2R TB Spacer and thermal gaskets (including the intake mani gasket)
P2R Ported Runners
High flow 3rd cat - Random Tech is a good option

Then upgrade your suspension and brakes since those are just as important as going faster.

Meth injection won't do much on a NA engine.

It cools the charge air and adds octane and fuel.

The only extra power on a NA TL would be from the cooling effect. While that's a good thing, there's going to be a lot more cooling of 200-300 degree air from a blower or turbo than from the 100 degree air NA.

It does not contain oxygen like nitrous. The two are completely different.

You can't hydrolock the motor from it. I used it as a supplimental fuel under boost and for the 20% I was looking for, it took 150psi pump pressure and a fairly large nozzle. I mean, if you really tried like running a large line and leaving it open with no nozzle, it may or may not hydrolock the engine.

It can make the engine A/F go rich.
