The DME will adjust fuel trims accordingly.
That's all I wanted to hear. Thanks!

While that's a great option, I don't see the cost/benefit balancing out to spend >$700 in order to spray a tiny amount of meth. Again, I'm not using it for power, strictly for chemical intercooling and detonation prevention.

Can easily get a AEM one for like 400, even less sometimes, I see people who sell new ones cause they never installed for like 300

They are universal so it shouldnt be a problem

If you are just spraying a small nozzle and trying to pick up a little octane and IAT cooling, no tuning changes - get a basic stage 1 kit. They are fairly universal. Devils Own, Coolingmist, AEM, Snow ETC.

Only when you start advancing in stages do things start to change.

Otherwise it's a Tank, pump, lines and nozzle activated by boost.

Correct, already have a snow stage 1 kit, that's why I was asking. Thanks again for all the info!

I was referring to the suggestion to get a jb4 just to control a tiny meth nozzle. I already have a meth kit in the garage
