Default methanol installation

I am proceeding forward with a methanol kit (ECS).

The vehicle is a 99 coupe with the following mods:

1. Katech Stage II Heads and Cam (mild cam)
2. Z06 Intake Manifold
3. Ported & Polished Throttle Body
4. FLP Long Tube Headers w/Random Tech High Flow CATS
5. Bassani CAT back exhaust
6. A&A supercharger kit using Procharger head (5-7lbs of boost)
6. Making somewhere 525-550 RWH @430-450 rear wheel torque.

Included with the methanol addition will be a supercharger pulley change for more boost and re-tune.

What can expect to see at the rear wheels?

I think we'll pick up some good power

Here is a similar car with the same P1,pulley but only a small Cam with no heads.
