It does also depend how much meth was being injected in the first place, although in very small quantities it would be hard to then make the engine dependent on it as any benefits would be much reduced.
Being dependent means just that...it is dependent, without it there is big trouble.
Although I guess yes if you were dumping in a shitload and it failed totally, maybe you would have reduced enough fuel volume for a massive power reduction that may not lead to major harm.

Then it was not tuned to be dependent on it in the first place. And certainly detonation would occur if timing had been optimised on a meth dependent car and the meth failed. It isnt just fueling of course.

Not knocking anyone who tunes differently, that's just the way I have found the best longevity. I have tuned over 700 SBE cars making over 700 rwhp easily, I lost count around 500 which was years ago now. The failure rate on these is amazingly low, like literally 1-2% and most were heavily raced and lasted longer than expected. I wouldn't have believed that 15 years ago. OK now I'm seriously out! lol
