hi guys has anyone got any experience with methanol injection. I am starting to look into both methanol injection and nitrous oxide systems. However I have my reservations about using nitrous as there seems to be as many risks as gains using it. I guess some information about my setup will help. The car is a global gt light which is being used for drag racing. Currently I am having a naturally aspirated cbr engine fitted, running after market engine management. The car is more or less being rebuilt from the rear bulkhead back. The car will run shell v power with added octane boost. The car is being future proofed as much as possible ready for turbo charging when funds allow but at the moment I want to find out what is possible, what the drawbacks are and how much money I need to stash away from when I go for my next round of upgrades. Any experience advice or suggestions on ever type of system are greatly appreciated.

When the time comes for the turbo upgrade the engine will have a full engine rebuild with all the best parts I can afford. I am wondering if I will get more benefit from the methanol/water injection as I will be able to run a higher boost set up.
