    i'd probably say in order for you to get a worth while difference out of it your not gonna have a take big enough to hold the mix. How long would u want a tank to last?

    i don't think it'd would ever happen. Thats the problem with using water meth on a big engine like theses is they could go through it so fast. Now for a highway truck that wanted to keep temps down and more power up the hills u could have it and flick a switch when u come up to the hill.

    From what I understand they run off a boost switch that you set. It does not run all the time. I would also like to here if anyone out there is running anything like it.

    ya they normally do run off a boost switch but every little grade u hit will probably engage it

    Pulling 80,000lbs a 50 gallon tank would last two days.
