Just get a bigger heat exchanger my coolant does not hot at all after I added the 2ed heat exchanger. And if that dont work for you add 2 small fans on the heat exchanger that will do the trick

Some tuners do not like water/methanol injection especially when tuned specifically for the injection, reason being that a failure can cause catastrophic engine destruction, But just using the injection system for supplemental cooling works well for me. I have run it successfully for about 4 years now without Mike's blessings. Injecting a 50/50 mix after the after cooler, I can see intake air charge temperatures at or below ambient. It does richen the mixture slightly but does allow for more timing. I do not lean the regular air/fuel mixture, but I am able to run quite a bit of timing. I have mine coming on at 3# of boost and use a 3 gallon reservoir mounted in the bed along with the pump, along with a bright indicator light mounted near the instrument cluster.
