Meth/alky, I could use some information

Im looking into putting a meth injector into my cobalt and i was wondering if anyone could share any key information with me.

Im mainly looking for how risky is it, how hard is it to use, how often do i need to refill, but most importantly where can i buy one to fit a cobalt.

Any information will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Not too risky at all. Just use winter mix washer fluid (or that plus HEET), Just depends on the kit you get as to how hard it is to use. Most kits are either a BOOST based kit, or progressive most I have seen are using just a boost based kit (basically set to come on at a predetermined PSI ie: 8 or 9# of boost), how often to refill that depends on your right foot my friend if you can keep it out of boost most of the time not to often, if you are in boost MOST of the time then more often! You can try lots of different brands

Devils Own makes a kit
Snow Performance
and there are several others! Just search on google they will pop up!

Hope that helps!

I was kind of wondering this too..and if I can spray it in AFTER the supercharger. I've been thinking of going with DevilsOwn, what do you guys think of them? Heard any negative reports?

I've heard that some people have been using an extra windshield washer tank and bolting that near the bulkhead/firewall on the passenger side of the engine bay

I have a coolingmist trunk mount which I like. I also installed an on/off switch so I can arm it when I want. Its a very easy install...about 2hrs. I spray before the supercharger.

I have the Devil's Own kit and it rocks. Great bang for the buck. If you are going to spray after the blower however, you are going to need an electric solenoid to control flow because the vacuum an boost will literally suck the meth from the tank. Just a heads up. If you look in my gallery or do a search for the post I made, you can see how I mounted/installed my kit.

Yup. Not risky at all. How often you fill up depends on how much you have your foot in it with the kit on and spraying when you hit desired boost levels. I have one on my s/c cavy on the intake before the s/c and it helped me drop my temps enough to get consistant runs and even drop my time 2 to 3 tenths to hit high 13s.

Again, you only really need to run it when your hammering on your car for long stretches.

we offer a kit specifically for the cobalt which uses dual nozzles AFTER the supercharger using a spacer. Our kit comes with a on/off solenoid, not a cheap check valve. Also we use a quality boost activated switch.

Price is $450US
