Default Alcohol Injection on a C4

Is anyone doing this? If so, what were your results. I've seen universal kits online as well as kits specifically for the C5/C6 but nothing for the C4's. It seems reasonable, but I don't want to be the first guy on the block to try this on his C4. Your thoughts/comments?

quite a few people run water/meth inhection as a chemical intercooler on C4's. Greg at blowerworks a call, he has a C4 specific kit that has many stages to suit your needs.

There are lots of C4s w/water/alky injection. Blower Works sells a quality product with a large C4 following (www.carrollsupercharging.com). Personally, I went a local company that mostly sells to the turbo Buick guys (www.alkycontrol.com)....

Same here, I have the blowerworks "plus" system. I'm running a 396 at 10 pounds . On my older system (350) it got me about an additional 50 horse or more... I was able to cut back on the fuel and run more timing with little or no spark knock...

The best investment I ever made!
