If it looks like jobby and smells like jobby it probably is jobby!

Re: water methanol injection system/kit
Are you N/A or forced induction?
And are you getting it remapped with it?
If your NA and or not getting it mapped then no point.

Yeah, he bought that blue 5th gen with the Mahle piston engine Turbo build. Nice purchase by the way. 
I think its only me and Ratty that have looked at water/meth kits because of our supercharger kits and the limited / no space to run a intercooler or chargecooler of some kind (albeit, I've got something fabbed up now).
I settled on the AEM kit, with a pieced together tank consisting of a jerry can. There's some blurb in this build section from AEM and a diagram for a turbo setup which might help you:

I chose the AEM kit as one came up for sale and mainly as it had a progressive controller to set the psi start and finish, amongst other failsafes too which you can feed back to your ECU. However, its not installed so I can't give you any feedback on it. Mainly because (as most will tell you) my build is quicker than Rome being built in a day, blah, blah, blah. Plus I'm nearly there with a chargecooler setup so I may not use this kit.
I know Ratty is close to having a kit installed and tuned this year, not sure what he's settled on yet? @RattyMcClelland

I opted for the uber expensive Aquamist HFS3 system. It's all installed and will be mapped in April via pwm on a Neptune p28.
I'm not expecting hp gains but more protection from detonation and a cooler combustion as well as maintaining consitant power that isntvlost through heat.
Plus advancing the timing will cool down exhaust gas and smoothen out the torque.
However I might be using the pwm to do boost by gear.

I've always wondered if such a thing existed as my Hondata S300 / P28 has the PWM bits already installed as it came off a turbo'd B18. Interesting stuff.
