How bad is water/meth for my evo...

I have a evo 9 with turbo back exhaust, intercooler, piping and intake, upgrade radiator and fan, stage 1 reflash from works and stock turbo. I was think of doing meth next but I am not look for something that is going blow my engine in the next 30,000 miles... I heard mix stories about meth... can some help me clear this up?

With proper failsafes in place it's 100% safe and a great way to mek power.

I like to stick with race gas when I want high boost though

When it comes to meth kits you get what you pay for. A proper kit will include failsafes to notify you if there is a problem whether its that your out of juice or your pump isnt pumping. If its installed correctly and tuned for it then you should have no problems with it.

If you don't know what your doing your going to cause serious damage to your car period. Take sometime and understand the benefits and risks of methanol.
