I have spent the better part of 2 years investigating, looking into and studying the effect's, positive or negative, regarding the use of water/meth to help the engine and save all the labor of installing an intercooler. I kept coming up with peoples negative responses to using meth, over and over again. Never quite knowing why 99% of the people that know better are against it.
NOW, I FINALLY KNOW WHY. I WAS DOING MY RESEARCH IN THE WRONG AREA'S. Thank you for saving me from this horrible fate. Might be fun for a while, but............................ |

| none. In practicality. There is no inter-cooler for the 95 SC. You can't raise the SC because it bolts into the alternator bracket, among other problems. There was a thread around somewhere where I talked about it. A custom job has been done on a Bonneville, but the heat exchanger had to be stuck inside the LIM itself. All of it would have to be custom, and nothing about it will be cheap. _________________  |
