I know a lot of GN guys run that kit and like it. I don't think it has all the bells and whistles of the ECS kit though.

I have the ECS kit and I'm glad I do. It's just nice to have everything you could possibly need to install it, and everything fit perfectly for the C5. This is a proven setup on our cars.

Did your Stang have a turbo or a blower? The advantage of alcohol is turning up the boost without having to run race gas.

Contact JR at Team ZR-1 he now has the only water/meth kit I know of that can trigger off the C5/C6 drive by wire, or MAP sensor and now he just finished testing another trigger design off the MAF frequency which really works great for those of us with a supercharger.
His design works up to 20,000 Hz.
My Z06 has had his designed kit since late last year and is far better then others I have tried in the past.

Good priced too.

Isn't the SMC kit non-progressive? (Meaning it is either spraying or it isn't?). Personally I think it would be better to spray more at 15 lbs of boost than 5.

Avoid him and go with ECS, Alky Systems or SMC instead.

I don't sell anything.
That's the great thing about Karma and ripping people off. John/TeamZR1 can keep the money, but it comes back to haunt him.


Julio at Alky Systems is great.
If you're going to get an alky system, just buy it from someone with a good reputation.

P.S. Nice post count you have there..
