I used it on my Procharged 540 and we use it on my buddies 691 rwhp 406; both used 91 octane pump gas and no intercoolers.

On my Lightning and GTO I used alcohol and water or straight alcohol injection for similar results. Not a bad way to go on a pump gas forced induction build. Was worth 50 rwhp minimum on the Lightning with the extra boost and timing it allowed.

I think we have taken away from MaxHarvard's thread this was his post and had gone away on other subjects, As far as your engine is ready for any form of supercharger it is not, Not to say its a bad engine it is just not a engine set up for a supercharger, If I have posted anything to take away from your question or intent im sorry, and great luck with the engine project.

some people call methanol "water" and some people also just use plaine water. My experience is that methanol works wonders, but you have to refill hte resevoir every so often. But my friend was able to run 20PSI on a single turbo with pump gas on a buick V6 using the methanol injection(and a big intercooler). If you have a MAF it will wire right in, and won't come on until you see like 5 PSI of boost
