Water/Methanol Injection on Turbo bike
Just wanted to share my experience with water-methanol injection on my CBR600 turbo quad. I finished the install today and just got a chance to take her for a spin. I set the boost at 6 psi and let her rip without the kit turned on and made 2 passes to get a feel. Not expecting much, I flipped the switch to activate the injection and let her rip. Holy crap!!! I was not expecting the increase that I got from this kit, it was just unbelievable. The rpms came up so fast, I actually had a hard time shifting fast enough to keep up. This was in the dirt and the tires were just boiling away, but it was an obvious huge gain in HP. They claim an instant 30 hp increase on these small motors and I'd have to say it was probably every bit of that if not more. I haven't even increased the boost yet, which is why I bought the kit in the first place. I think I'll take a little time to get used to my new found power first. If you turbo guys have ever thought of trying water/methanol, I say go for it. It's worth every penny.

RE: Water/Methanol Injection on Turbo bike
I actually had to look that up to see what it means. Here's a couple pics of the main parts of the kit. The rest is just the wiring, hoses and switches. The first pics is the pump which I mounted in the only space I had left. The second pic is the nozzle in the plenum and the switches and activation light on my controls area. Let me know if you want to see any other angles.
