Meth injection problems

Well hopefully I can get some insight here. I just installed the boost activated meth kit from snow performance. I have not done any tuning whatsoever! Prior to spray my afr at wot. Was 11.5. Now when it sprays I see 11 until approx 2 psi before max boost. Then it jumps to 13.5-14. I'm running 4gph nozzle. -20 washer fluid and 2 bottles of heet pergallon. Now I'm assuming due to the cooler charge I'm boosting more. I was reading 14. Now I'm seeing 16. Thanks guys

Your missing the point though. I know I need to retune. I should be running rich though. I shouldn't have to add fuel when I'm already adding it

here is the best way to make a 50/50 mix...

take a jug of washer fluid, make a line where the fluid level is, pour out half of it in a clean container. add 3 bottles of the yellow heet. fill up the washer fluid jug with the stuff you poured out till it reaches the line you made. put remaining fluid in your washer fluid in your car.

and done....perfect 50/50 mix

Yeah that would be the reason I put a wide band In so I have accurate afr readings. Yeah I mix it out of the car. It's not fun to drain or fill either! I hid everything in the passenger fender.
