Default water/meth injection on car but dont have meth..

I bought my car with a Snow performance water/meth injection kit installed and I am getting no power at all from 5-7k rpm. it bogs and just wont respond. Then I realize I am out of water/meth. I am going to go get some tomorrow to mix 50/50 but I am just wondering if this could be the reason my car aint responding at those rpm's

did you buy the car without any knowledge on meth/water injection? If so, I think your setting yourself up for failure for sure. Do some research...

If you run a car tuned for meth, without meth, you WILL hurt the motor...

Pull one of your plugs out and see what it looks like.

You must Stop driving it hard without the meth in there.

A freing of a freind ran without meth for 1 month and he had little bits of melted aluminum stuck on his plugs from the melting pistons. Car still ran fine after though, suprisingly.
